游戏带有中文，这点好评，有种很小的时候，我拿我家里人手机玩雷霆战机的感觉，基本上想在Steam再来找到这种游戏已经很难了，那种感觉，很少有游戏能模仿出来
Beyond Solar generally captures the vertical scroller shooter essence: basic bullet dodging and emorizing enemy spawn locations all yield the same sweat-inducing experience The added energy gauge management and skill-swapping gives this the long-missed difficulty close to that of classics like Ikaruga.
难度有点高，特别是过了第四关之后~~
Overall, it’s a good game, but the pacing feels a bit slow. Sometimes you feel underpowered, or the enemies feel too strong, and I think the balance needs some improvement. Personally, I enjoy this type of game because I like feeling overwhelmed by the number of enemies and bullets coming my way. However, at the same time, I need weapons that can handle those situations and make me feel powerful. In this game, I don’t really get that feeling. Another issue is that I spend a lot of time farming to upgrade my arsenal . most of the time I can’t use the special abilities effectively before the stage ends, which makes the upgrades feel less rewarding. This review is based on the Early Access version.
smooth gameplay, great art, and definitely worth checking out if you love a good space shooter
玩起来除了有点肝以外还挺不错的，变形加僚机阵型变换，怀念07年玩联想自带的烈焰战机还有雷电系列游戏的感觉，还有就是能让主界面的显示效果加个开关就好了，大脑袋特效不太习惯
没想到2026年还有如此复古的游戏，其实玩法没什么问题，但是数值设计太差，前期需要刷的东西太多.
复古小游戏的感觉，感觉键盘操作不太顺畅呢
玩起来倒也算是流畅，没什么bug，就是我有点手残....
还行，就是每次打完一关想要升级必须退出有点烦，而且需要的金币数量太多，太肝了
