A short but really delightful experience, some of the most fun i had with a twinstick shooter. The combat is always exciting, the abilities of each class are all well implemented. You are really getting stronger as you level up in this game which gives a nice sense of progression. Even playing solo, this game is really fun and very much recommended if you dont mind the short campaign. Its also very replayable and you can switch between classes at any time.

I want to like it... I want to like it. The game has some solid production value with nice shiny graphics, lots of unlockables, loadouts a la Call of Duty, voice-acted characters with their own personalities, tons of bullets all over, etc. etc. Basically, this game has a lot going for it. A LOT. I just don't like it. I tried this in the hope that it would be a nice twin-stick shooter, and it is. The core gameplay is just too similar to virtually all twin-stick shooters: Shoot. Dodge. Run. Shoot some more. I personally found that the addition of a story, the surprisingly good graphics for the genre, and all of its production value simply doesn't do quite enough to get me past the same gameplay that I'm personally very tired of. I'll recommend the game simply for the good parts of it, because my own bias doesn't deny that the game itself is good. If you love a good twin sticker, you'll probably enjoy the heck out of this. I'm happy to look for something else and let other people enjoy it.

The ending was so predictable. Still, the story kept me going just to prove that. The message wasn't anything different than an your average skynet experience; "HUMANITY IS FLAWED! I MUST DESTROY IT BECAUSE I AM AI." Ig its fun if you like to shoot things but some of the gameplay mechanics were laggy or flawed. Solid 5/10 for a 1 dollar(on sale) experience. For a noob gamer like me, it was good boss fighting practice.

I've gone on a bit of a buying spree this week (too much), HellDiver, Skull & Bones, Lords of the Fallen, some other smaller titles. I said no more crazy, that's enough for the year. Then I saw this one. I love sci-fi mecha, smups, top-down twin stick shooters, and said, "OK, this one looks really cool. One more game then." And I''m not disappointed. No buyers remourse here. I absolutely love it. I'm obviously not very far. So, I can't speak to the overall experiance really solid. Great atmospher, good mechanics. If you're a fan of these kinds of shooters, I think you'll be in to it as much as I am. I'm a very green, novis, wanna be, game developer and it's games like this that make me feel like, "Give it up. You'll never make anything this freakin cool."
