It's a decent Atari-style game that is fun but requires no real skill to complete. If you die you can just pick up from the previous wave or nearby it, meaning you just have to keep playing to unlock all the upgrades and win. Some of the achievements are irritating to unlock but I managed to get all of them in a few hours.

The game itself has one gimmick, little variety, mediocre visuals, and not much of a challenge, but contains a surprising amount of bugs. For example, scrambling missiles are supposed to invert your controls, but (at least with mouse controls) getting hit by them also flips your position around the center of the screen, which can and will teleport you into other hazards. Another example is that if you try to charge up the force wave (by holding down a button) you'll also fire an antimatter bullet (normally fired by pressing the same button), which is a complete waste given that the force wave will wipe all enemies on screen: and no, you can't get around the issue with rebinds. Cheap, but not worth your time.

An interesting and cheap game to kill some time. The soundtrack is nice. The gameplay is quite repetitive. However, there is a checkpoint system in place to minimize that.

Fun to pass the time, although repetitive. The 500 waves achievement is tough but I had a great time. Can recommend! Time to 100% legitimately: ~5 hours or less.

Solid little game for killing time. Simple, satisfying at first, but gets repetitive pretty fast. [h1] Good for short sessions, nothing special. 6/10 [/h1]

I bought this game because I like retro games and it was on sale for half a buck. It was not fun, but for achievement hunters, you can get an easy 100% achieves if you enter a code found in the guides section. For windows users this is Lshift + RCTRL + RALT + K.
