About

A vertical shoot 'em up game where players control a ship that can switch between black and white polarities. The core mechanic involves absorbing enemy bullets of the same polarity while dodging those of the opposite color, with chain bonuses awarded for defeating multiple enemies in succession. The game features five levels with tactical design, boss battles, and supports both single-player and local two-player modes.
