Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Surprisingly fun arcade game. Good selection of weapons.
This becomes not fun when your ship moves at hyperspeed. Still liked it though

6/10
El juego es muy divertido al principio pero se vuelve repetitivo al poco tiempo, solo una nave del juego me gusto y solo 2/3 armas las considero buenas Por el precio no es malo, pero para mi dejo de ser divertido a una hora de juego
Simple and satisfying
个人评分:2/5 不知道什么时候买的了,看着评价很高,但其实很吃电波。 主要原因就是这个操作,很街机,左右键是左转右转而不是左移右移,这导致反转方向的时候很难受,打的人红温。 但是其他设计都还可以,毕竟弹幕射击这个品类已经很成熟了,各种数值,武器,敌人,道具设计都很成熟。
Buen juego para pasar el rato si no tienes que hacer.
