About Boneless
A poor man with just one arm left tries to escape from alien monsters and survive with limited ammo. How long you can survive against growing army of alien monsters, while they getting stronger and crowded each wave? Upgrade your bullets' damage, your health and movement speed with coins that you gain when you killed an animal monster each time!
