Definitely put this up when it goes on sale. Simple fun shoot em up.9 found this helpful
https://youtu.be/5lS00kGN4TI Unclear goals and difficulty in reading the screen puts the player at a processing disadvantage which makes the game hard to learn or enjoy.
A solid experience with enjoyable mechanics and a good amount of content. Great for both short and longer sessions.
"Rave-party-bullet-hell-twin-stick-shooter". Pros: Great game, I keep coming back to it. Fast, trippy colorful visuals, lots of bullets, great music, very good replay value if you're into the kind of rave party ambiance the game brings. Works well on Linux/SteamDeck. Cons: Obviously not recommended if you suffer from epilepsy. Sometimes gets completely overwhelming visually, but then that's part of the fun - can you manage to survive when you're not even sure where you are on the screen and what the hell is going on? Great job Boss Baddie!
Do you know what I learned from the experience of playing such abstract games? but I didn’t understand ♥♥♥♥. every game is something new although it feels very familiar
Really Big Sky is a charming, chaotic space shooter that genuinely surprised me with how addictive it is despite its rough edges. The upgrade system gives each run a satisfying sense of progression, and the soundtrack absolutely slaps — I found myself humming the main menu theme long after closing the game. That said, the visual effects can get so overwhelming that you'll often die without knowing why, which gets frustrating when you're on a good streak. The narrator is either endearing or insufferable depending on your mood, but mercifully you can mute him entirely, which I'd recommend doing immediately. If you go in expecting a polished, precision bullet-hell experience you'll be disappointed, but if you want a weird, colorful, pick-up-and-play arcade shooter to unwind with, this scratches that itch nicely.
