Aug. 2025

Around a decade ago I played this game, still a teen, had no money so the game was pirated, had fun, was frustrated by the grind or the somewhat stupid AI, good times. The game still holds up somewhat okay, but there are more frustrations than there used to be: The resolution does not go beyond 1920x1200, and even if it did the UI scale would be pretty bad since there is no adjustment. No windowed fullscreen and the game freezes for a few sec every time you tab in or out. Crashed close to 10 times this playtrough, and the performance is not amazing even on a good system if there is a lot of stuff on screen. Worst of all - the forums and the mods are gone. You can still find a few biggest ones since some people shared what they had on steam, or you can find some info on internet archive since there were some snapshots made, but a bunch of stuff is just gone. Still it's a great game especially for it's time.

A fun top-down space shooter. I have memories, and they are not bad.

March 2025

SPAZ delivers competent space combat wrapped in progression systems designed to extract maximum engagement from minimal content—a mathematical exercise in stretching 10 hours of unique gameplay into 40 hours of perceived value. You'll enjoy it until the moment you recognize the patterns, then wonder why you ever did.

Love this game, the space battles so much fun! I also love the exploration, upgrades, and fleet building. (Don't bother with the second game, just play the first one over again if you need another fix.)

Dec. 2024

Old game, super fun and addictive.
