    The graphics are praised for their retro modes, offering a nostalgic experience reminiscent of classic systems like C64 and Amiga, while the "ultra" modern mode is considered good for arcade gameplay. Users appreciate the smooth visuals and improved mechanics, though some express a desire for more cutting-edge features like ray tracing. Overall, the graphics are deemed decent, complemented by good music and controls, despite minor bugs and layout issues for certain keyboard configurations.

    • “Graphics have many retro modes like C64, Amiga, 8-bit, etc. The best 'modern' in 'ultra' is good enough for arcade, but I would love to see a more bleeding-edge mode with ray-traced ships, bullets, asteroids, ... :-) Almost perfect, but the fixed keyboard layout is not optimal because the special weapon on 'Z' is bad for German keyboard layouts - hope for an update to make the keys configurable.”
    • “Improved graphics and mechanics, good music, lots of ships to choose from, and smooth controls.”
    • “Great graphics, music & gameplay ...”
