Defend your home from shadowspawn invaders in this bullet-building roguelike!

A gunslinger who crafts magic into every bullet!
Every enemy you destroy releases the energy you’ll need to forge new bullets. Clear waves, harvest power, and keep your finger on the trigger. The real battle begins when the smoke settles.
