A fun little horizontal shmup. I'll be short. Pro: - Interesting upgrade system. Some level requires a specific tool, so you won't be able to get through all the stages with only one build. You have to adapt. - Good level layouts - no empty stages, you will find obstacles, flying islands, different terrains. In a lot of shmup, the space is just a void to avoid bullets, here you get a lot of stuff. - Bosses are - okay. - There is a room for weapon testing - Space and planet surface levels are very different - You can send a drone to the terrain, so it can help from above. Very cool idea! Contra - I'am a fan of pixel graphics, so iam not after super-modern 3d stuff, but not really this style. It's like it was drawned in paint. Some good visual ideas, but the overall look still cheap. - The problem, i already mentioned in the forums. In every shmup, where an upgrade system is included, there are usually 3 variations... A, U can replay older missions to get more credit. B, U can SELL items, which u don't want to use. C, U get credits even for failed missions, so u can slowly progress. Well, this game doesn't include ANY of these options. What u have is: u get cristal for succesful mi…

It's okay, i think i bought it for 90 percent off so at that price it's definitely worth it if you love shootemups. If it's not on sale it may be worth your time if you wait but probably not if you pay full price. The game works great with a controller but I grew tired of the game fast which is a bad sign as i love shootemups. One thing i love is that the game has achievements, but lacks an easy mode as you have three lives then it's game over.

A cool Pixel 2D game with cool sound track. If your a fan of old 2D shooter Sci-Fi games then this is to go.

First and foremost, hats off to the dev to making a Linux version of the game, I feel many neglect that platform. I played it on Xubuntu, and it worked flawlessly. The game is what it seems: a retro styled shoot em up, with decent graphics and nice soundeffects. I liked the gameplay, it is quite exciting, although the bonus missions should have been better explained. But overall, the game is good fun.
