That being said, there are not enough to really recommend this game for everyday players, let me elaborate a little. My biggest problem with this game is that I see too many unavoidable enemy bullets. A lot of people who play shoot-em-up games will know that traditionally this genre does not give the player too much leeway with taking damage, usually one hit kills means that careful movement is crucial. This game really makes this attempt way too difficult. I understand that there are a lot of health drops and the ship's armor is there so that I can take some damage and pick up health, but it just doesn't feel right. This ship that you control has an evade function, giving you some invincibility frames that almost have no cooldown, and it increase the ship's movement in that direction. I understand this is built into the game, and it makes me really…

Good baseline for retro game. Desperately needs more content. But worthy purchase for the soundtrack.

Nice time killer. Challenging boss fights. Developers keep improving quality and performance of the game.

Original music, upgrades, fast pace, cut scenes, dodging, health instead of 1-shot. Lots to like.
