Our take on Tekla
The endless-wave format concentrates play on survival and character upgrades, but leaves less room for the varied settings and structured progression of a campaign-led shooter.

Collect the remains of defeated enemies to upgrade the character's combat abilities. The game includes nine enemy types, each with a unique ability, and three bosses. Its roguelite elements and upgrade system shape a survival-focused structure where the aim is to last as long as possible.
