Enemy commander: What is happening? Soldier: The enemy has sent one ship. Enemy commander: And what about it? Soldier: It has destroyed 3k of our ships Enemy commander: How is that possible? Soldier: Reports say it can auto repair midflight and it can upgrade from killing our ships. Enemy commander: Does it have any weaknesses? Soldier: Yes. It can’t shoot near the edge of screen. Enemy commander: Are you insane we are in space there is no edge of screen.

Seems a fun enough game, though nothing exciting. The assets are pretty, and everything seems to work. The tutorial could be a bit more clear, but nothing I didn't figure out eventually on my own. Basically you fly in from the left, and shoot at things coming in from the right. You have bullets, beams and rockets. You get a minor upgrade every level, and what I think is a major one every ten, though I haven't gotten one of those yet. The biggest drawback I would say, is the frequent and lengthy load screens. Less irritating, but perhaps more odd is the lack of fluff. Even the name implies some sort of story, but there is none. Odd, because fluff is so easy to add, and provides a sense of engagement in my experience. Anyway, got it cheap, under two bucks American, and it is a fun time waster. One thumb up. ADDENDUM: The music varies from level to level, and some of it is really good! ADDENDUM II: 2.7 hours from start to the end of the twenty missions. I did do a few levels more that once for the experience points. Pretty fun, and there is still endless mode. I am at about level 50, and I think there are upgrades up to level 90, so there is a bit more play in it, too.
