STELLAR BASTION

Nice game! I really enjoy this sense of gradual progression. The visuals are clean, and the gameplay is simple. In the early to mid-game, all you really need to think about is what kind of attack patterns and build paths to assign to your fortress. After that, you can mostly sit back and watch it deal with incoming enemies on its own. However, [spoiler] in the late game, it becomes clear that stacking damage is everything. This is especially noticeable in the final stages, where Shield and HP don’t feel as important anymore. If the game could put more focus on making non-damage builds more viable, I believe it would be even better! :3 [/spoiler] Even so, it gave me over 4 hours of calm and relaxation. It’s a great little game to unwind with, reasonably priced, and definitely worth trying. [b]8/10[/b]

Game is ok, the battles feel short and generally a bit too easy. That is until you hit the last boss, where massive RNG is required to survive in the first 24 seconds and another round of rng is needed once it deploys the missiles. You basically hope the upgrades you picked so far enabled you to give enough damage boost to take out the incomming SUPER Tanky one hit missiles. A bit lame i tried it a couple times and had no luck. The upgrades from the Skilltree are weird too, some are permanent some are in-battle upgrades. Theres no story which is a bit dissapointing. I have seen better games of this genre but for a first game its decent enough. The price itself is okey for what you get, defenitelly a second screen game.

Stellar Bastion is a slick sci-fi auto-shooter that mixes space defense strategy with arcade chaos. You command a central space station while waves of enemy fleets spiral inward from every direction. The core gameplay loop is satisfying: your station automatically fires while you manage upgrades, weapon loadouts, and positioning to survive increasingly overwhelming waves. The weapon variety is where the game really shines. Missiles feel explosive and tactical, railguns punch through enemy lines, and phase weapons add a futuristic twist that keeps combat visually interesting. As waves escalate, adapting your build becomes essential. Do you specialize in long-range mass drivers, or create a defensive missile fortress? That constant build adjustment gives the game a strong roguelike flavor and keeps runs engaging. Visually, the battlefield grid and orbiting enemy formations give the game a clean tactical look that makes it easy to read the chaos. The sense of being surrounded by enemy fleets closing in on your station creates genuine tension. However, one element that noticeably breaks the immersion is the AI-generated intro scene. Compared to the clean in-game presentation, the in…

Overall, it can feel a bit weird to get into and it isn't perfect but it is a legitimately good game and good time waster if you are looking for some quick fun, chill gameplay and no absurd grinding. You should be able to beat the game in under a few hours and have a decent time while doing it. Now for some game info. THIS IS NOT a traditional Tower Defence Game where you build up a base. You are pretty much stuck as a single, immobile turret but have various upgrades and fight an assortment of enemies. It isn't difficult at all but does feel Cozy and Comfortable and most importantly.. Doesn't feel like a Chore! Also, it's quite Rouge Like-ish so if you like some random upgrades thrown into the mix and some Rouge Like Gameplay to an extent than you probably won't mind this at all. Overall. I'd give it an 8/10. It could do with a bit more content and maybe a few extra enemies but other than that it's pretty well rounded and simple but fun. Buy it if you want a bit od an odd but relaxing time with some rouge-ish gameplay to go with it! PS: About the AI Bit. It was pretty much just one or two tiny bits of AI and i believe they were removed of so It is listed as having it but t…
