What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise this survivor-like for its depth, polished presentation, varied weapons, unique character traits, and innovative island-based progression system that replaces traditional shops. The high-contrast art style and responsive controls are well-received, though the game has a steep difficulty curve and some feel certain design choices like boats could be more differentiated. Overall, it's recommended for fans of arena shooters, though it takes time to adjust to its visual style and demanding gameplay.
It's a really fun game, but it's really frustrating when the game starts to chug due to too many coins on the screen or enemies. When I have [spoiler] all of the challenges on and the zapping gun [/spoiler] the game will start to stutter even with a 5900X and a 3080. This has basically killed any of these runs. I don't think that should be the case for a 2D game. Edit: If this affects you, go to task manager -> details -> Nautical Surival -> Right Click -> Set Priority -> Realtime / High. This helps a lot.1 found this helpful

Nice game!
Really very pleasant survivor. I enjoy the micromanagement of time, and on-the-fly routing that the gameplay loop encourages. It's got a very relaxing vibe to it as well.
Not for me. Controlling the ship feels terrible. The colors are so bad and mix into each other and it's hard to see the enemies or what's going on. Waves of enemies just ... *poof*, end and disappear - which feels weird and unsatisfying. The basic gameplay loop itself is annoying and uninteresting. Dev has potential (cute ideas here and there) but this ain't it.
