About Dark Old Sun II: Unspace


We present to you a vibrant Shoot'em up style game, filled with roguelike mechanics to keep each match interesting and unique, and also an intriguing storyline unlike anything you've seen in a "spaceship shmup" game.

Prepare to be challenged by breathtaking boss fights, as well as various enemies with unique mechanics, with battles and situations procedurally generated for a diverse, incredible roguelike experience.

You will also be able to venture into UNSPACE, exploring the most remote and dark locations, while enjoying a first-person view from the comfort of your cockpit.

You can also build and improve the YAMATO space station, which is your operations base, resulting in new abilities for your ship, as well as new mechanics that are acquired as you progress in the game and continue to build new facilities.

  • - Over 50 base equipment, which become completely different as more upgrades are installed.
  • - Procedurally created maps, which change every time you enter them.
  • - The small navigator, Dolli, whom you can customize, changing her clothes and hair! 🤩
  • - Workshop system where you can modify the behavior of weapons and equipment, as well as their levels and masteries.
  • - Space station where you can build improvements and new facilities, expanding it and creating new interactive features.
  • - Interactive cockpit where you can relax and observe the space around you, while listening to beautiful synthwave music.
  • - Including... A sensational selection of synthwave music. 🎶
  • - Enemies with diverse and interesting mechanics that aren't just "appear-shoot-leave", the enemies have intriguing and varied abilities.

When the Dark Old Sun disappears into its own shadow, Earth and all its inhabitants enter an era of decay. The terrible calamity known as UNSPACE unleashes, trapping everyone in proximity to the planet and barring any chance of return for the unfortunate who venture beyond its boundaries. Within UNSPACE, reality warps in bizarre ways and it's virtually impossible to find a way back.

The challenge is colossal, but fate still has one last bastion for humanity - the YAMATO space station.

YAMATO, the only structure capable of launching spaceships to unravel the mysteries of UNSPACE. This is the last hope, a labyrinth of distorted realities and monsters from another world, where GRID seems to be the only one capable of piloting CROW - a spaceship that resonates with YAMATO, tracing the way back even from the deepest UNSPACE.

GRID is accompanied by an AI named Sarah, who with her cheerful and friendly personality, joins him in exploring the UNSPACE, meeting various people and "entities" along the way.
GRID's mission is clear: to create a route through UNSPACE and guide humanity to a new home.

----------------------------------
Also...

You'll have amazing opportunity to customize the adorable Dolli, finding new outfits for her as you progress through the game.

[code]Written By Hidden Gems Review : https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38624426/, Follow me! [/code] Dark Old Sun II: Unspace is a Bullet Hell RPG game. Still can't believe this game is made by 1 single person; Deep on content, charismatic characters with a great space odyssey story and a very original gameplay where you travel by turnbased squares and fight the scenarios improving your ship with a big variety of weapons, accesories and skills. There is a great anime artwork aswell and I like so much that I did all the achivements. For that price target is a must since it's a very good hidden gem.

significantly better then the first one in almost every way, and the last area went hard thematically and gameplay wise, only complaint is that it can get reptitive grinding some large areas like the floor 3 of each zone. a actual true hidden gem imo.

This game is a nice mix of shmup and roguelite, has a slow start and lets players get cozy with the systems before jumping with them on the "time to git gud" part. The music is nice to listen to and has cool ingame player that lets you change what you are listening to on the fly. Gameplay is easy to understand, the displays use the HUD smartly and the game itself runs smooth even on low end PCs. Story is a plus and even has a "battle mode" if you dont feel like reading, where you just jump into combat. Enemy variation is nice and mecanics are simple enough to execute fast, but not easy enough to get boring. So far having a good time playing it, really recomend checking it out.

Continuing and expanding the history of the first game, Dark Old Sun II Unspace drags you around challenging levels with enemies with several shotting mechanics and unique designs, besides the level modifiers that brings you an extra difficult. All that besides the history with interesting characters, that will make want to play more to discover how the history unfolds. Play this game on the hard difficulties is not for the faint of hearts, because it will require all your skills to avoid being shoot while exploding all enemies with your weapons that you grind along the gameplay based on the roguelike mechanics. So, if you like shoot’em up, you should definitely try this game, but if read till now and believe that is to hard for you, don’t worry you can turn on some helps like auto-aim and others (or just set it on easy lol), but don’t let to try it!
