Trouble, trouble everyday. But worry not, little heart – for in this game you have been equipped with a defense ray and have been given the possibilities to upgrade your stats after each wave of successfully held off woes. Yes, and the woes are of a most fiendish kind. They start off harmless and easy – no need to shed tears, little heart. But soon you have to realize that woes and worries are ever growing, the further you go, the harder it becomes. Now, isn’t that a lovely metaphor for life itself?
Well, basically it is a standard shooting game with a static player character that can buy upgrades and with enemies that are getting stronger each level to raise the challenge. But that static player character is a heart, and it is your task to keep it going, to blow the blues away. And also the mean reds, as in “Hold Off Red“.
