There are no surprises in this game, what you see is exactly what you get. And what you get is the best execution of this formula out there. There's basically nothing to criticise, all the game is lacking is more content.

cool game but good luck reading the dialogue lol. obviously needs voice-over. it's actually a bit overly derivative, to be honest. gameplay is fun and a mix of OG starfox and 64, and includes sick-ass space harrier bonus levels, which is a huge plus. it's kinda disappointing to not have multiple paths, considering it's a defining aspect of the series. the game is still in early access, so every review is either from yesterday or possibly an earlier build of the game, so keep that in mind. at its core this game is for a very specific audience, which i'm definitely a part of. you're either that person or some kid who has no idea what the hell this game is. if you're the latter, probably wait until it actually releases. otherwise, you know you want it.

Hey kids, remember Starfox for the Super Nintendo? Remember that time it ran at more than 4 frames a second? Me neither. Luckily, Ex-Zodiac has you covered. Ex-Zodiac is an on-rails space shooter where you play as Not Starfox and the game runs at a good framerate. In this game you move on rails and shoot enemies, Talk with your doctor to see if Ex-Zodiac is right for you. Side effects may include but are not limited to: nostalgia trips, sweaty hands, and having a good time. Ex-Zodiac is not responsible for any fun had by the player.

This game knows exactly what it wants to be and slaps on every level of doing that thing. P.S. to MNKY, I'd play a whole game of hover bike levels.

Lightning fast fun. It's a shame there's so few missions and they're each so short. You can front to back this game in about an hour for some simple mindless fun.
