Pros
Pro Interesting theme
You are a running raptor who is shooting lasers from your eyes. The theme itself is sci-fi based in that the platform the raptor is running on looks sci-fi themed and contains robots. Also it would not be normal for a Raptor to shoot lasers, which in and of themselves are often sci-fi based.
Pro Fun shooting mechanics
Kill robots with your laser eyes as you run endlessly. Instead of the classic endless runner gameplay where one just avoids objects there is an extra shooting mechanic that allows one to shoot at robots in ones path.
Pro Low system requirments
This game only requires 512 MB of RAM to run. Total file weight is 100 MB.
Pro Evokes a sense of nostalgia
Pixelated art, Windows XP-style game interface, early 2000's versions of Facebook and Youtube featured in the game, as well as numerous pop-culture references (including Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Eminem, and Red Hot Chili Peppers) will make players (given that they're old enough) nostalgic.
