    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally viewed as average, with some players finding it initially boring due to limited weapons and tricky controls. While it becomes more engaging as players unlock additional weapons and learn the mechanics, many criticize the lack of depth, underpowered upgrades, and simplistic enemy AI, leading to repetitive and frustrating experiences. Overall, the game offers some fun moments but fails to deliver a rewarding or innovative gameplay experience compared to other titles in the genre.

    • “Pretty much just your average space shooter with some interesting weapons and a few fun mechanics.”
    • “This is great due to different gameplay tactics and progression tactics.”
    • “It has trading cards, (no achievements) but has some fun gameplay that is better than most games I got for this cheap.”
    • “Not the best gameplay I've ever seen because the controls are quite tricky, but after a while you learn how this game works and it becomes easier for you to dodge and aim at enemies.”
    • “Most weapons feel underpowered and upgrades barely have any effect on gameplay, along with most perks as they are completely worthless.”
    • “Ok, look, I really wanted to like this game. It looks pretty good, has some nice tunes and sound effects, but the gameplay is very frustrating in that the enemies have no AI whatsoever. It's like your ship is a magnet and they just overwhelm you and stick to your ship. I don't know if the devs designed it this way, but it just doesn't work.”
  • graphics
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game are praised for their impressive background artwork and visuals, particularly in the later levels, which enhance the overall experience. While some users note that the graphics are not easily comparable to other games, they still find them appealing and commend the variety of enemy designs and upgrades.

    • “The background artwork is awesome.”
    • “It featured some amazing graphics and visuals, versatile weapons, a huge array of enemies, and a ton of upgrades.”
    • “You cannot really compare the graphics with other games, but it's nice to look at them, especially in the later levels.”
    • “I could have gone farther, but the next boss would have taken me days or weeks of dying without cheating. I just wanted to see the rest of the enemy types and background artwork so I could move on with my backlog.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally well-received, with players finding it relaxing and fitting for the game's atmosphere.

    • “Pretty interesting game, with some impressive environments and nice music.”
    • “I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is considered decent for the genre, providing a moral about perseverance and the unpredictability of life, despite having minimal text and narrative depth. The game's backdrops encourage players to use their imagination to fill in the gaps as they progress through the campaign.

    • “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
    • “It's not much, but many games in this genre don't have any story whatsoever.”
    • “There is nearly no story text between the start and end of the campaign, and the backdrops spark the imagination to fill out the story as you progress.”
    • “The story is decent for this kind of game.”
    • “It's not much, but many in this genre don't have any story whatsoever.”
  • humor
