I had my eye on this game for a while, as I was making a similar game to Zotrix a while ago. The idea of a simple shoot 'em up with a more modular ship appealed to me, and I finally grabbed it. In a way, I had a lot of fun with it, as I was just looking for a mindless game. Shooting stuff is fun! Unfortunately, the pacing, progression and difficulty curve are all completely off. I don't know how the game was in...

On paper, this would be one of my favorite games. I love top-down arcade shooters, and resource trading/management, and upgrade loops. Zotrix has all of these things, and it does them all in a very mediocre way. The shooting, where you'll spend most of your time, is incredibly boring and easy. Enemies will slowly march onto the screen, single file, where you will immediately wipe them all out by firing in a straight...

This game is pretty good. Frustrating? Yes. Difficult. YES. In space? YES! The only thing I don't understand is the optimization of the particle effects. My CPU and GPU (i5 and the highest radeon series) are equipped to handle that stuff, yet I get severe lag when too many particles are on the screen, with a density of 20 parts/cm^2 or greater. I know, one can turn the particles down, or even off, but I don't need...

Horribly bland, boring, repetitive gameplay. Most upgrades do nothing to change the gameplay in any way. Enemies (randomly drawn, pixelated abstract shapes) move into the screen slowly, single-file, and require zero thought to be beaten down. This is the most mind-numbing experience I've ever gone through on my PC. To the developer: you earn no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.

The current state of the game does not support Xbox controllers well. For strange reasons the game requires a lengthy gamepad calibration the first time you activate the Xbox controller in game. The calibration stage is cumbersome yet producing bad calibration results, and it is impossible to steer and aim in the game in any meaningful way. Bad impression regarding the gamepad controls, as I have yet to see a...

Zotrix is like a top down arcade shooter bullet hell where you play as a spaceship shooting everything. That being said, the game has pros and cons to it, although from what I found, the cons outweighed the pros. The good parts of this game is that the gameplay is actually pretty fun. When you are shooting stuff, it is smooth, sometimes refreshing, and is challenging to dodge and shoot enemies. Also, the game...

Shoot-em-up with replayability... kind of?! Very great game mechanics with an actual market system and trading. Grinding up upgrades is quite cool and there is some kind of story to the quests. Not the best graphics but thats not the point of the game. Great Retro-ish music, quite nostalgic but also modern Sadly the gameplay is super boring with enemies comming in waves from the same angle for 20seconds each, so...

It's trully a blast to the past. Zotrix is reminiscent of the finest golden-era shooters that us veterans played in 80's :) Though the basic premise of 'shoot everything in your sight' is still the same, it works suprisingly well on many levels, succesfully incorporating trading mechanics as well as some basic economics. Seeing this as a first game of this genre from this young Croatian studio, I can only look...

I didnt not play alot, but i surely will. This game brought alot of old gamming memories back, it made my early gamming childhood alive once again, a awesome 2D indie game which is worth even the full price of 9.99€ Trust me, this game is a awesome little game to have tons of fun with. A little package with alot of fun inside it ! The only thing i do not like it has not a option for resolution but that will be surely...

Overall rating: 8 / 10 Zotrix is a space shooter coming from an experienced Indie game development team - ZeroBit Games. Zotrix is also their first game published on steam platform. Whilst, as any early access game there is a lot of room for improvement the game runs rather smooth and promises quite a lot. I've had the privilege of discussing the game with its developers and the impression gained is quite positive....
