  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally enjoyable, with users appreciating the background tracks and the option to mute them. However, there are issues with the music settings, as it sometimes stops unexpectedly, indicating a need for better functionality. Overall, players feel the music adds value, but some technical fixes are necessary.

    • “The background music is enjoyable, but I also love the mute option!”
    • “Once they get the settings fixed in terms of working correctly, sometimes the music stops and other times it doesn't. I would say it would be worth like $2.99!”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is minimal and lacks depth, focusing solely on completing missions without any narrative elements or achievements to engage players. Players are primarily tasked with killing enemies to progress to the next level, resulting in a repetitive experience devoid of a compelling storyline.

    • “There are no achievements to earn, cards to idle, or story to follow.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally considered decent, with some appealing spaceship designs, but the limited variety of enemies can lead to visual monotony. Overall, while not groundbreaking, the graphics effectively fulfill their purpose for an indie game.

    • “The graphics are impressive for an indie game, striking a balance between being decent and visually appealing.”
    • “I wouldn't say the game looks terrible graphic-wise; some of the spaceships do look nice, but there are only a few different enemies to battle, so things get boring pretty quickly.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the humor in the game primarily through the mothership levels, which are noted for their comedic elements and provide entertaining moments throughout the gameplay.

    • “Every now and then you will encounter mothership levels which can be hilarious at times.”
