Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of experiences, with some players praising the engaging lore and varied boss encounters that create a compelling narrative journey. However, others express frustration with the game's mechanics, particularly regarding enemy density and upgrade systems, which can lead to overwhelming situations and a sense of average execution compared to other titles in the genre. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a blend of enjoyable elements and notable shortcomings.
- “The difficulty is just right and enemies and the bosses vary from each other sufficiently, resulting in different gameplay situations.”
- “Sure it's an overhead view and not a side view, but the mechanics are much better. A 2-player mode is available, there are RPG elements, and if you catch it on sale, you can find it for 16 cents.”
- “The lore and gameplay are sublime; you are a man on an impossible mission to save what little is left of civilization, remembering your family along the way. The bosses moved me in such a spiritual way.”
- “To some degree, I can kind of see why they went this route, but considering the amount of enemies on a screen at certain points, it takes too many stat points to properly upgrade that stat. I found it frustrating not being able to defend myself while the screen is filled with enemies.”
- “I'm sure the creator put in some effort to make a competent shoot 'em up, but it seems like it really didn't bother seeing other quality games in the genre (i.e. Gradius) and using similar mechanics. It made me feel like the creators were okay putting something out that was average at best, and I'm being really generous about that statement.”
- “Sure it's an overhead view and not a side view, but the mechanics are much better. A 2-player mode is available, there are RPG elements, and if you catch it on sale, you can find it for 16 cents, which I wouldn't spend that much on this game.”
