33 Rounds

[h3]Dodge asteroids, missiles, photon blasts, and other hazards in a 33-stage avoidance game. It's okay, but unlikely to provide much value beyond its singular campaign and identical difficulties.[/h3] [i]This review is intended to be informational, but due to steam forcing me to take a side, choosing recommended simply because it's bug free and provides 1-2 hours of playtime for its price.

You just move around and collect gold bars and stars while avoiding the asteroids that scroll across the screen in different directions. I mean, imagine trying to rip off Asteroids but being so bad at game development you can't even manage to work out how to make your spaceship shoot. The best part is, this is completely on-par for most GameMaker Studio games. Like most GameMaker Studio construction kit "games", this features lazy 2D retro pixel "art", instead of professionally done, contemporary PC graphics. There's three main reasons a game will use this crutch. First, the developers lack the talent to come up with contemporary graphics and visuals and hope "nostalgia" will be an acceptable excuse. Second, they lack the proper budget to develop a video game and can't afford to hire anyone who can do video game graphics properly. Finally, they are limited by …

The game is good for what it is, it Delievers everything it promises. In itself it doesnt seem like much, but it's actually not bad, The Controls work flawlessly, the game gives a challenge, has decent music and pleasant visuals.
