Glad this got taken off steam.10 found this helpful
[h1] Fight big boss dudes. Destroy the cargo and move on to the next big bad boss. In the meantime get attacked by deadly peasants swarming you like flies. General idea is good it's just each stage require divided attention - shooting boss and avoiding projectiles from all sides. Game have plenty of mechs to unlock - design is good. Some customization like different modules to equip. Sounds are ok. Campaign consist of exploring the map and picking another battle, while some planets contain only some unlockable. You can also build your own mechs and chill out for a bit with your badass robo. Not bad neither good so just giving slight recommendation on this one. [/h1]9 found this helpful
can't recommend!!! you need to shoot enemie ships in time, but the ships aren't even on screen for some like 8-10 seconds. precious time, in which you could shoot. but nah, the ship isn't on the screen at all. what a dumb game idea. i believe, nowadays game developer never heard of game testing!!4 found this helpful
[h1]Follow our curator for similar games[/h1] https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35180752-3-point-play/ 2.5D bullet hell + mech customization - dizziness = Not your typical shmup where you mainly fight boss spaceships on each planet. Each boss has many parts to their ship. Unlock parts and mechs.4 found this helpful
Super slow and boring bullethell/shoot'emup. Literally play any other game in this genre.
Pretty neat old school game. Great 4K graphics! When I did Options > Controls > Show Controls (to see controller layout) game freezes. STEP 1) STEAM: Enable Steam Input controller support. STEP 2) GAME: Options > Controls > Enable Controller Infinity - Has COOP Campaign - Don't think it can do coop
