About Kinetic Storm
Kinetic Storm is a top-down arena shooter where you destroy waves of enemies and select upgrades at the end of the wave. It is a roguelike, so enemies and upgrades are randomly generated, and every play-through is radically different as you discover synergies between your weapon, skill, movement, and defence choices. Running on a custom Vulkan game engine, it is both visually stunning and highly performant with responsive low-latency controls.
Before each run select your primary and secondary weapon. Focus on upgrading one, or carefully choose useful upgrades for each.
Manage your energy levels to make best use of your skills. A dash at just the right time can save your ship, or destroy masses of enemies ... if you have the right upgrades.
Enemies are carefully designed to each have distinct abilities and defences. Some are deadly up close, others from far away, or only from some angles. Which will you destroy first?
Challenge massive and terrifying boss enemies.
Your reward for survival is ever increasing power and destructive ability.

For 69 cents It's a good time, Controls are easy6 found this helpful
It's scratches an itch (mindless destruction) but given that there is virtually no variation beyond boss fights which are few and far between, there is little to recommend repeat play.1 found this helpful
Pros: + Snappy and responsive controls + Nice visual effects with dynamic lights and daylight cycle Cons: - AI art on all 2D assets - Same map each time - Very small enemy variety (5 enemies and 2 bosses) You'll see everything the game has to offer after the first couple of waves. Got all the dopamine it had to offer in under 2 hours. This game is not worth the peice tag.1 found this helpful
It's a wave based bullet hell game, where your arena is your group of islands, where the enviorment matters. The game is for the most part, exactly as advertised. It has one map, a cupple weapons, and luck based upgrades when you level up. The challenge is noticeablely appropriate for the difficulty. and graphics are definitely good. It's an Arcade game, so the replay value is the same as any arcade game.
Game with a lot of potential but on hard mode dmg going through shields to hp makes absolutely no sense, especially considering how little hp drops, so I cannot recomend it as is. On other difficulties it's not as bad and manageable.
Absolute garbage. Unfinished, unpolished - do not waste your time or money on this.
