I got a beta key... can someone give me an idea about what makes this game different/special before I go and download it?

 

[Stigmata]

Class-based high-speed futuristic competitive CTF-centric skill-based rechargeable-jetpack shooter encouraging "skiing" which is the use of frictionless jets to hover and preserve velocity when moving across terrain

In a nutshell: gotta go fast
