Fight through the horde of summons, beat hypnotized witches and figure out who is behind all this.

Pickups:

There are number of shooting patterns in the game, some focus on single target, some on whole screen dps, find what suits you best!

- Health Potions will keep you safe along the journey.

- Super Star grants temporary invincibility and ramming powers!

- Force Shields grant you the ability to bounce enemy bullets back, but they don't offer melee protection!

 - Frog Bombs help you clear the screen of enemy bullets and release a powerfull bullet wave!

Sour Cream:

Sour Cream will follow you along, lagging behind a bit and helping out with the pesky enemies. You attack patterns do not modify his, but with proper positioning he can be a helpful companion on the journey!

Enemies:

Enemy minions attack in waves! Don't spare none of them, charge your Mana Burst, gain Frog Bombs and tear through the opposition!

You will encounter their respective witch master at every 6th level!

Some enemies use tricky patterns against you, be on your guard!
