Background: Purchased as part of a Bundle Stars Bundle. Impressions: Wow.. it's a quick download and a quick deletion. I played up to the first boss and then quit out. Basically it's a bullet-hell game like '1942' with futuristic 3D ships and a horribly restricted field of view. It's something you've seen a million times before and does nothing to improve on the formula. The shooting just requires you hold down 2...

Wow this is bad. Almost impressivly so. Sure, It was probably easy to make things like the art bland and the music painfully generic, but in other areas it seems like there was some real effort to make this properly terrible. A camera angle which makes it difficult to place where your ship is relative to bullets, that's some effort right there. Ship movement which seems oddly disconnected from controller input, hit...

This game is mediocre at best. The menu selection is just awful, especially for the upgrades, it's not clear what each upgrade of your guns, rockets, power, shields can do, no idea what each gun is, everything is trial and error. Even so, it starts with such a fury and speed, the bosses are almost unbeatable, and it feels like all of the time someone's attacking you from behind or just trying collide with you. This...

As there is nowadays a big influx of shooters games on steam there is starting to be somewhat of a crowd at the bottom of the pile. This game is down there in the pile. It may perhaps be more on top of that pile as there are worse shooters but that doesnt help much. Why so? As other reviews have accurately described this game suffers from hard to tell hit collision as enemies alter altitude and often approach you...

Quick review coming from a shmup lover. The Good : - the game does't look too bad. By today's standards, it doesn't look too good either, but I wouldn't mind if it played ok. - Music sounds good, but... The Bad : - Controls are rigid. Don't even try to play with an XBOX360 controller... - Patterns are repetitive. - I have a big feeling problem with this game. Can't feel the power of the weapons. Can't feel when I'm...

This game had a few issues; The collision with other enemies is atrocious. You'll often take damage without even touching the incoming ship. The bullets are ok though; This collision issue gets worse when you notice the area you can move in around is much smaller than it looks; It crashed a few times which is really annoying; Not all menus can be controlled by keyboard, for example I couldn't close the medal earned...

At the modest price of 7.79 you can purchase a short but intense mediaval torture to test on your own skin. Vote? not classifiable.

While not a terrible game, I wouldn't recommend it because frankly the current price of $10 is much too high and also as it is a classic arcade-style shooter, if that is what you feel like playing then I might suggest you go and play one of those instead that you could get for much less and that would not have some of the same issues. What I liked: -Classic arcade-style shooting -Ability to upgrade ship in between...

Made by the same studio that made Bad Rats. Do I need to say anymore? Ok, I will. Pros: Good to gift to friends as a joke Cons: Game speed varies wildly depending on how many enemies are on the screen. This seems to include the shot sound effects from your weapons Some enemies, including the first boss (as far as I could be bothered getting) seem to be half off the top of the screen. This means you can't shoot...
