Humans Must Answer

Despite excellent artwork, the game is just not fun to play. You are forced to go back over and over to 'collect eggs', puzzle elements are awful, the game forces you to stop shooting to 'save energy', the 'fade to black' transitions make the whole thing feels unfinished and ugly. I expected G-darius or R-type, got another below average shooter. A missed opportunity.

To make it short: Pros: Nice graphics, nice effects, giant bosses. Cons: Boring, chewy controls, boring. Conclusion: Nice for in between, but miles away from R-Type or Raiden.

This game is fun! I bought it for the intergalactic alone. Gameplay is straightforward, shoot everything in sight. It's somehow similar to Tyrian with it's upgrade system, asteroid filled space, chaotic combat, and mission log before the level starts. Unlike most arcade shooters, our weapons are limited and charge based so we must know when to shoot effectively. There is also a turret ship that we can deploy for certain circumstance and aid. The game is pretty challenging even in normal difficulty, especially if we're trying to collect all the bonus. Boss fight is similar to Touhou and Raptor, we must dodge boss' weapon while attacking it. Graphics and sound are very nice for a simple game like this. If you like classic arcade spaceship game (and fried chicken), you should play this game.

For all you humans wondering how humanity would end, this impressive title reveals an intergalactic conspiracy which may bring whole civilizations to their knees. Can you resist not buying a limited edition copy going for a once (or maybe a few more times) in a lifetime price of 1.99 only ? I think not. Drop everything else and grab as many copies as you can! You will then be able to formulate the answer.
