Brings what grabs you about Whackerball: runs that differ every time, good gunplay and combat with precise timing.

A twin-stick shooter where the game window itself is the enemy, shrinking and drifting across your desktop. You dodge foes while shooting the window edges to shove it around, a clever twist that plays with the boundaries of the screen.
