What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Truxton is a classic arcade bullet-hell shooter that players praise as one of the best in its genre, with the Steam port offering helpful features like a rewind function and decent achievements that aid learning. Some players note minor audio quirks in this port, and the game's difficulty is genuinely challenging rather than unfairly designed, making it best suited for those willing to invest time in mastering its mechanics. Most reviewers who gave it a fair chance found it engaging and worth experiencing, particularly for fans of arcade shooters.
Unfair bullet-hell fluff designed to bilk impressionable children out of quarters with unwinnable scenarios and wonky controls.2 found this helpful
When you are told to git gud remember that whoever told you that probably isn't Truxtron gud.1 found this helpful
Decent port of Truxton. I did notice the audio can be a bit funky but it plays well and the rewind feature is really helpful in learning the game.1 found this helpful
Arcade shumps usually arnet my forte, especially bullet hells, but i really enjoyed this one and i can see why its considered one of the best.
The Gidans have blown up your planet's cargo barge! Go avenge it with this incredibly fun arcade classic!
First ran into this with Evercade's Toaplan collection. The booklet that came with the cart had a bit of a weird story about one of the company member's story about another company member talking about the game Originally I bought the cart for Wing Zero... but I found love with Truxton. As it is an awesome game Decided to buy it again on Steam The Achievements on Steam are actually pretty decent for encouraging people to play the game Highly recommend this game
