This game is a delight that managed to fly beneath my radar for quite some time. I had been looking for a game with lots of loot, leveling, open world, and everything else this game is marketed as. I tried a few alternatives that just didn't quite click as well as I hoped. I could play them for an hour here and there but it just didn't hold my attention. 6.1hrs played at the time of this review. That was my first sitting! Truth be told, what sold me on giving this game a look was reading the devs responses on Steam and Discord. Holmcom is an absolute champion. For that reason, not only did I buy the game but I opted to pay full price instead of waiting for a discount. This game is amazing, and everything I had hoped for. I look forward to watching this developer further. TLDR: Great game, even greater developer.

Game is nice, the setting is a bit weird if you ask me, like you are playing as a spaceship and you suddenly go into a cave and temple and stuff. This feels a lot like Diablo and other dungeon crawler game than a spaceship battle game, like these places are for person not gigantic spaceships. These places are great for adding variety to combat and exploration. Story is... a bit shallow, it would be nice if there are more exploration on the factions as well, some factions apparently don't get covered in the main story, the Imperius Control is great, though it seems the more powerful your engines and bigger your ships be, the more likely you will be sliding across the floor so caution is needed when boosting (or sprinting) with shift. And the bigger your ship is, the harder for you to precisely aim your fixed weapons, and i'd like an aim lock feature for your turrets too, you can either let your turrets to fire at small enemies while you fighting your main enemy, or focus all turret onto your main enemy for more damage. The bosses is fairly interesting, wont spoil much, but basically you have to move slowly some times, but it needs more variation than flying stat bricks. Inventory system is nice, you'll get more tab as you play more, it even let you auto fuse with a button, though, thing like ctrl click to automatically move an item without dragging and bulk transmute items with one click would be nice. And a small lock icon on item's icon to differentiate locked items Sound effects... its a bit awkward to be exact, it sounds like modern 8 bit game which feels off with the graphic the game provides, probably need other version with a bit more realistic sounds. Overall a great shoot n loot game, some rough edges can be found but these don't affect you much.

I initially bought this game because it has six player coop. A game with coop for more than four players? I must support this. However, I have found that I really love this game. The gear system is varied, and while it could use some quality of life improvements, like maybe a search your stash option, I have been having a blast playing this game. Many varied strategies and builds, and I can finally be a giant space brain teleporting around shooting lasers like I always dreamed of. Music is pretty good, though it either fades into the background like most space games or it jumps out and makes me want to dance. The town in act 2 is particular good for funky beats.

It's good fun if you can get over the fact that equipment slots don't increase with ship size. Other than that a decent twin stick style shooter with more complexity than the average game in the genre. Recommend for sure. Pick it up, already!
