story5 positive mentions
grinding2 negative mentions
  • Unique ARPG/shmup mashup with solid gameplay, music, and pixel art developed by Wayforward.
  • Quality of life improvements in the rerelease include more save points, reduced random encounters, tighter ship controls, and faster movement enhancing exploration and reducing grind.
  • Includes extras like concept art and soundtrack; the game runs smoothly and appeals to fans of classic GBA nostalgia and genre hybrids.
  • High frequency of short random shmup encounters interrupts exploration and breaks game flow, which can be frustrating despite reduction in encounter rate.
  • Writing and story are generally simple and sometimes awkward, with some script changes in the rerelease negatively affecting character personalities.
  • Limited enemy variety and shmup patterns, strict enemy spawn points, and lack of fast travel options cause repetitive backtracking and reduce gameplay depth.

  • story

    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    36% positive mentions, 43% neutral mentions, 21% negative mentions

    The story is a straightforward yet engaging mix of genres, blending mission-based gameplay with an evolving plot involving infiltration and conspiracy. While the writing is simple and somewhat dated, it offers surprisingly developed characters and a fun narrative that complements the game's mechanics. Overall, the story is decent and adds meaningful context to the gameplay experience.

    • “The plot remains as engaging as it was, with an apparently straightforward infiltration affair that devolves into conspiracy and layers of doubt: the writing is simple but to the point, and characters are surprisingly developed (even if their cheesecake design might have you thinking otherwise).”
    • “It's a peculiar mix of genres that's executed quite well through the plot device that experience is retained by the pilot, so every battle allows you to grow stronger as you would in a classic JRPG.”
    • “What surprises me most about SSS' story is that someone didn't write it in the current year.”
    • “After beating the first stage, it becomes something like the original Zelda or Link to the Past for a bit, albeit with more story.”
    • “The other time these occur is after finishing a key objective, where you're then prepped to fly a ship for a plot relevant reason.”

  • gameplay

    The gameplay is solid and polished, reflecting WayForward's expertise, though the mechanics are relatively simple. It offers a mix of styles, including shmup and top-down RPG elements, with features like rewind to correct mistakes enhancing the experience. However, some interface elements can be initially confusing, and the lack of autofire may strain the player's arm during extended sessions.

    • “Also, it's developed by the venerable WayForward, so you at least know the gameplay, music, and pixel art are solid, albeit the mechanics themselves being quite simple here.”
    • “ You can rewind gameplay in order to avoid simple mistakes.”
    • “The gameplay shines in all modes so far.”
    • “The mechanics themselves are quite simple here, despite solid gameplay, music, and pixel art.”
    • “No autofire options; my arm was sore after 1 hour of gameplay.”
    • “Figuring out how to navigate the menus initially confused me, but that doesn't have an impact on the gameplay.”

  • music

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    43% positive mentions, 14% neutral mentions, 43% negative mentions

    The music, developed by WayForward, features solid chiptune-style tracks with a limited variety, typically one song per area. However, frequent projectile firing often drowns out the background music, and while the soundtrack may seem repetitive, gameplay pacing prevents it from becoming too annoying. Additionally, bonus soundtrack content is thoughtfully included both in-game and in the installation files.

    • “Also, it's developed by the venerable WayForward, so you at least know the gameplay, music, and pixel art are solid, albeit the mechanics themselves being quite simple here.”
    • “I like it when they include all the concept art, soundtrack, etc. in a pretty wrapper, and not just in the game but in the installation directory.”
    • “Graphics are pixel soundtrack sounds chiptune.”
    • “Due to the volume of firing your projectile, most of the time you won't be able to hear the background music.”
    • “Even when you can, there's only one song per general area.”
    • “Trailer gives the impression that there is a remastered soundtrack.”

  • graphics

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The graphics are characterized by pixel art style, complementing the chiptune soundtrack to create a retro visual and audio experience.

    • “Visuals”

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game significantly reduces grinding compared to its predecessor, with improved map design and dialogue cues making exploration smoother and faster. Early battles, previously seen as grindy but enjoyable, are now less repetitive, enhancing overall gameplay flow.

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game offers strong replayability through a wide variety of gun combinations, encouraging players to experiment with different setups for a fresh experience each time.
