So much fun

Lots of potential... please keep updating and adding to it. More ships, maybe a screen that allows you to view the current ship with the upgrades on it! More background scenes. More special weapons!!!

Abominable Space Shooter!

I read some of the other reviews and I do not understand their complaints. It is shooter with RPG style stats. You can get credits and bounty quickly by completing bounty hunt missions and cargo missions which are plentiful. Once you save enough credits (which does not take long), you can unlock stronger ships. There are so many ships to choose from and they have a variety of special weapons and stat bonuses. Also, the reactors are powerful and are crucial for victory. The raid missions are fun and give you power cores which unlock some of the best ships in the game. The bounty hunt and cargo missions get progressively harder as you unlock more sectors so a good strategy is to play these missions early on to collect credits, bounty, ships, and rare items. Then once you become more powerful, beat a few more sectors, then play more of the side missions again so you can become even stronger. Repeat this process and you will progress throughout the game like a blood thirsty falcon.

Visually, the game is stunning. The weapon effects are awesome, the sound is strong, and the gameplay is intense. The screen is always filled with a variety of unique and great looking enemy weapons. The bosses and their weapons are wild and their music is intense.

Another great aspect in the game is the story line. The game contains dialogue throughout the entire campaign which is witty and entertaining, and the story itself is intriguing. The characters are well developed and interact in interesting manners.

I am absolutely stunned by players saying that they couldn't get past the first 6-10 sectors. There are 100 sectors! I am equally as surprised by how many players said that the developers are greedy and how they force you to spend money to progress throughout the game. This is simply not true. The time it takes to collect credits and bounty is reasonable if you play both the campaign and side missions. Plus, you must get better items and ships as you progress throughout the game. It does not take too much time to get and upgrade items that will help you progress through the next few sectors. It takes a while to beat the entire game because there are so many missions and tiers of items. Whenever you do need to get better items, it does not take too long. The side missions are fun, change as you progress, and help you get better items and credits pretty quickly. Plus, the items get better and never get old because there are always new types of awesome stats and weapons. A smart strategy is too equip a combination of items and ships that have a chain-link effect (powerful stats that power other powerful stats).

I don't mean to degrade these gamers, but I hope to get more people to understand the strategies needed to conquer this amazing game. I never had to grind much or spend money, and even though its challenging, I never got stuck on one level for a long time. More people would enjoy it if they would understand the proper strategies and appreciate the myriad of RPG style items. There are an incredible amount of amazing stats, weapons, and missions. How could you not enjoy this game? There are so many gameplay elements. The developers deserve more credit. This is the most underrated vertical shooter.

Anyway, I love this game. It is perfect and no other vertical shooter is like it. I appreciate the compelling story line, awesome items and stats, myriad of ships and weapons, great sound and graphics, and very smooth gameplay mechanics. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

Amazing Game

This is one of this most challenging space shooting game I’ve played. It’s very fast paced, and CHALLENGING. But it has one flaw, the way to get credit is very hard. I know that you are able to watch an ad for extra credit, but those come very rarely. Overall, very amazing game, very challenging too, but credit is hard to come by.

Over underrated game

Best game ever!! Love the background <3

Level 63.4

Story line is so bad in this it was so glitches the writing was wrong and my avatar guy was red and Eli was dalton ... what's going on?
Please fix this!

This is nothing but a cash grab

This is no more than a mediocre shooter. After 1 hour of play the game goes from easy to near impossible. Your lives are on a timer to manipulate you to spend money on lives. There’s so many better shooters out there that aren’t a cash grab:
Phoenix 2
Time locker
Sky Force (any version)
Infinity gene
Plasma sky
... to name a few.

Garbage

As you progress through the game it becomes more and more buggy. By the seventh level I would die before the first enemy even spawned and lose a life. Utterly terrible game

Great game + graphics

Graphics in this game are amazing and gameplay is really fun too, especially in higher levels, however I didn't really like the story mode or campaign part. Mostly kept going back through levels after I had completed the campaign, as that's what is more fun in my opinion..

Not A True RPG, And That’s Its Fatal Flaw

I had this game once before, but I wanted to try it again, to see if the issues previously discovered had been resolved. In a word: no. The capabilities of your ship are almost completely dependent on the stats attached to the armaments from the crates; if you want a better ship, it will require better loot. You can get crates in a number of ways, but to get the loot FROM the crates, you’ll have to spend the game’s currency - either gems or credits. If you obtain a crate without having the gems or credits to open it, you’ll have to either spend real money to get the amount you need, or abandon the crate, as if any crate not opened is destroyed. Even if you do obtain the loot from the crate, the stats attached are a complete jumble, unless it is rare-grade loot or higher, meaning that the loot you may want to use may not make your ship any more capable to survive. This will mean spending a good amount of time simply grinding for the loot that will have the stats to keep your ship intact for more than a couple of hits. To raise the stats on the loot you get? LOTS of gems; 3,850 of them, to be exact, to get even standard loot to their max level. Without the gem doubler (a in-game purchase), amassing that amount would take longer than it is worth. I have made it to sector 26 for the first time, but the grinding and spending of gems and credits in the hopes that an armament that I want will actually improve my ship, instead of just giving me a desired weapon to use, actually makes the ‘tons of items procedurally generated’ a negative thing; it would be better to simply have a shop that allows to purchase what you want, so you have more control over your ship’s stats/chance of survival, or have a level-up system on your ship itself, so that you have a chance of making it better in between all the crate obtaining/opening. *sigh* I’ve had enough... again. :-(
