A nice game to play. Although it isn't Steam Deck verified, it runs flawlessly without any issue in Linux.

Nov. 2024

One of the classic vertical shoot 'em up games that's been revamped for the modern systems. Will run on modest hardware, and while it isn't verified, this runs on the Steam Deck without issue. Get the Anniversary & Reloaded bundle at sale. Absolutely worth it.

Oct. 2024

Great...It's as simple as this: best shoot'em up ever!

Sept. 2024

Action packed game. Good balance. But I am stopping for now. I do not like that we are forced to replay missions to get medals in order to proceed. I don't mind repeating levels to collect currency to buy upgrades, but locked to earn medals to move on is a bit time consuming and gets boring really fast.

As an old school shooter player like myself, this hits the spots with new elements....a little grind to be had but it feels rewarding. Hopefully they make some more cause I really enjoy these.
