Gameplay

The player must control a ship and shoot using a close range attack, a powerful melee-style energy blast that destroys anything in close proximity to the player's ship including enemy bullets. They can use the close range attack defensively to keep enemies away when they're in a tight spot, or they can use it offensively by charging into groups of enemies and bullets like a battering ram. However the close range attack is limited, and will need to be charged by shooting more enemies. They can also use power ups by building combos which add bullets and missiles to their arsenal and power up their weapons automatically. Players may also choose pathways throughout the game by achieving combos higher than the exit targets on each stage and surviving Scoregasm Frenzy and picking one of three directions.

The game has an online scoring system with tag-able online profiles and custom online friend groups.
