FAQ
Where do I start, and is there a download?
Open the page in any recent web browser. The game runs there, so there is nothing to install before you play.
Can I bring friends along?
Yes. Up to 8 players can join you online in co-op and fight in the same flooded shaft. You can also go it alone.
Does it play in 2D or 3D?
It is 2D and side-scrolling, so the fight moves across the screen as you hold your ground in the shaft.
Which keys or buttons do I use?
The store page does not list the controls yet. They will appear there once they are available.
How long does one session last?
There is no set length. A visit lasts as long as you keep fighting, and you can step away whenever you like.
