The gameplay is characterized by its fun, fast-paced mechanics, allowing players to dual-wield pistols with various ammo types across multiple modes, including timed and survival challenges. While the graphics are praised for their quality and the experience is immersive, some players find the gameplay a bit simplistic and express a desire for more variety and difficulty options. Overall, it offers a solid workout and is considered addictive, though some still prefer the gameplay of similar titles like "Space Pirate Trainer."
“Excellent graphics and fun, fast-paced gameplay.”
“Powerups, true 360 gameplay, a great scoring system, varied enemies and game options with leaderboards for each.”
“Really cool gameplay and it is a workout.”
“3 modes of gameplay, 2 modes you are shooting and nothing is shooting back at you other than missiles every now and then.”
“The gameplay for A-10 picks up where Space Pirate Trainer stops.”
“However, still the positive points are much more than the negative ones, so I do not regret the purchase at all and hope the developers will tune the gameplay a bit and offer some kind of optional casual difficulty level.”
