Among the many beauties of Arco is that it's a secret, gentle introduction to bullet hell shooting

Keeping time There are many reasons to play and write aboutArco. The sparse, expressive dialogue, each phrase carefully tucked inside its speech bubble. And the little things at the level of how you move, what you do. you could also visualise where enemies are heading and what action they’ll perform next.

The developer calls it “a sandbox which focuses on self-reliance, skill-based tactical gameplay and third-party development”. Oh, I see. It has a bunch of blockchain cryptocurrency horseshit attached to it. But this marks the moment it has been christened with a real name. I love to survive amid the hellish collapse of interstellar civilisation. What sounds less inviting is the horrendous soup of cryptochatter that follows.
