I'm a little surprised so many of the other reviews are so negative. Is some stuff a little unfinished? Yeah. Could it use a bunch of polish? Sure. Did I still have plenty of fun for a while with what's there anyway despite that? Absolutely. I'd say my biggest problem is that some stuff just isn't really explained very well or sometimes at all, and it would benefit a lot from explaining that stuff better (like just get some loading screen tips and make them viewable on the main menu or something) and making more info on stuff more easily visbile while in game too. You can figure that stuff out pretty quickly through trial and error though, and then there are plenty of fun interactions to mess around with, kind of in the vein of something like Soulstone Survivors but in space. It's pretty satisfying finding combos that work well together and seeing how much you can break them. The main reason I stopped playing when I did wasn't because I wasn't having fun but because the build I was having the most fun with spawns so many projectiles that it not only kills bosses in seconds but also the entire Steam Deck in the process. If it ran a bit better I probably would've stuck with it a bit longer messing around with stuff. Either way I got a lot more out of it than I did with something like Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor and had a lot more fun in the process. There are definitely a bunch of other games in this genre that are more worth your time if you haven't played them yet, but there's some decent stuff in this one that could be pretty good if someone just took a little while to clean stuff up a bit and give it a little polish.

Vampire Survivors in space, with separate roguelite transitions/maps. A bit forgiving. Could use far more content and variety of enemies. 8/10.

[EDIT] Use the test/development branch, most issues have been fixed and there's more content. There's a lot to be said about a game like this that still gets updates. At this point, there are so many options in builds, it's one of the best. Recommended. [Original Review] It was really fun, until the beam weapons stopped working. Not sure if it was the last update but now the graphic gets stuck and no damage come out, makes it impossible to do an all-beam run. It's still sort of playable but some of the most fun weapons like flame throwers and plasma torches are beam weapons and thus break shortly after each map starts. Until this bug is fixed, I can't recommend it.

[UPDATE] I just realized that I could close the game and restart it and the memory issue is better for another several missions. Not ideal of course certain, but it takes the stuttering from making the game unplayable to a being an annoyance. Hopefully this gets fixed soon, as indicated. But in the meantime I have been able play and enjoy the game very much. In it's current state I would give it a medium, but given Yes or No, with what I know now, I will give it a Yes. [Original Review] I really want to like this game... It's right up my alley. But it unplayable past mission 4-6. It starts stuttering like crazy and the ship becomes uncontrollable. I have been waiting to see if the issue gets fixed... but nothing. It's a shame.

Fun game. For $5 it is a recommend especially after weapon combos. August it was announced another developer is taking over this game, they said they are many more updated planned. Looking forward for any updates!
