NIGHTSTAR: Alliance

Really wanted to like Nightstar: Alliance since I wanted something like The Lab Xortex minigame (your hand as a spaceship in a bullet hell) HOWEVER this game isn't worth your time. • Enemy ships are super far away so hard to aim to shoot them. I know this sounds like a nitpick but its hard to have pinpoint aim when the ship has "floatly" movement (not 1:1) • Picking up parts to build your ship sounds fun but pieces are rare and found like two different turret types and some hull pieces during my time playing. • First level is stupidly hard compared to the second and isn't fun to have to replay again and again when you die on future levels (restart from first level on death in campaign mode) You do get allies if your fast enough shooting down enemy ships in the first level (which some are tanky) which is a nice change in a bullet hell game. Maybe I just suck at games but I don't see how other reviewers have multiple hours playing this when it is unfair to the player. Either allow upgrades after death, checkpoints, level saves since I am not going to spend my time grinding the first level to have a shot at completing the game since if I die then I have to grind/start the whole …

NIGHTSTAR: Alliance, developed and published by Tiny Leviathan Studios, is a VR arcade shooter that builds its entire identity around immersion and multitasking under pressure. It takes the familiar foundation of space-based shoot-’em-ups and reworks it into something more physical and immediate, placing players directly inside the cockpit of a customizable battlecruiser. Rather than relying purely on traditional controls, the game uses motion-based interaction to turn piloting, combat, and upgrades into a simultaneous juggling act that defines the overall experience. The setup is simple but effective: humanity has been pushed to the brink by a hostile artificial intelligence, and you are tasked with rebuilding strength through combat. The narrative remains mostly in the background, serving as a loose framework rather than a driving force. What matters is the action itself, which begins almost immediately and rarely slows down. Enemy ships approach from all directions, creating a constant sense of urgency that keeps players engaged from the start. What sets the game apart is how it handles interaction in VR. One hand is typically dedicated to controlling the movement and position…

Fun shoot em up in VR. You can grab powerups as they float by and build up a fleet of ships.

Game doesnt support quest 2 controller,cannot control the ship properly ,concept is good but they need to add more support to the story mode also

Yes, one of the better VR games. More strategy than seen on surface.

It's a family fun party game - good for introducing yourself to the world of VR! Really... your in space shooting ships!
