May 2025

So much fun. Extremely precise controls, great upgrade system, lots of ship customization and build variety. Music is quite entertaining as well and all sounds are snappy and satisfying. It's fantastic to mow down hordes upon hordes of ant robot things very quickly. Enemies move in interesting paths sometimes making little whirlwinds or snakey conga-lines of bots. It ends up becoming extremely addictive, with both its campaign and survival modes, with unique maps and some neat gimmicks and bosses that make them all special. Food survival is particularly engaging. Due to all of that I can definitely excuse the super goofy character art and lack of warnings on certain things such as enemies coming from offscreen on either top, bottom or left. Nowhere is sacred, nowhere is safe.

What's good? Quite a bit! * Outstanding balance of bullet hell and strategy / light RPG * Near 10/10 graphics (We'll say a solid 9.25) * Multpile paths * You can outfit your ship to reflect your play style as well to better deal with the next stage in your progression * Built-in save game feature * Your ship can belome a true beast that unleashes unrelenting fury! * Stages, backgrounds, set-pieces, and bosses all look great * Steam Deck / Linux play is flawless What would I improve? Nothing major, but for me: * Pre-defined characters (pilots) are visually pretty basic * There's a lot of in-stage management in selecting and upgrading your ship's abilities unless you use one of your ships slots for the A.I. (Which then the A.I. does this for you) * Sound track is low-key techno - Could use a more hard rock / driving musical palette (OFC this is subjective) Give it a go!

This game is the most addictive shooter I've played in a very long time. It's intuitive to play, the powerup system is tried and true making it easy to understand. The weapons look great as you power them up. I don't have any difficulty distinguishing enemy bullets. I happily restart levels over and over which is so awesome because it's been such a long time since a game made me want to do that! You gradually unlock items which in some games can be boring or confusing, but the dev managed to avoid these pitfalls somehow. I'm playing on Casual/Easy and having a great time. I'm not playing for score.

This is the best SHMUP of all time. We don't need any more SHMUPS that you can finish in 1 hour with zero customization, we need ones like THIS where you can let your imagination run wild trying out various mod combos. Beyond that killer feature, it essentially does everything else right too.

Jan. 2025

One of the most underrated SHMUPS I've ever played. Highly refined, has co-op, a workshop, cross-platform, tons of levels, weapons, and ships this really this has it all. Totally down for a sequel.
