I like this game alot

I really like this game! It's a great mix of great pixel graphics and fun and simple game play. It's the kind of game I would love to have in VR, but I don't think it would work because it would be too disorienting. It's a fun overhead cover shooter. I don't know another game that is quite like it. You are literally in a rectangular stage where you can free roam in a line at the bottom of the screen and the enemies are at the top. It sort of reminds me of a space shooter. It basically uses many concepts of an overhead space shooter, but the enemies don't move in a flying motion. They move in either circular motion to throw off your aim, or other random directions which is much different from any space shooter. It's like an evolution of the genre. I really like it. You really need to master it's mechanics of targeting, moving under cover, rolling out of attacks, parrying attacks, and knowing when to deploy which weapons. So many more play options to consider, and it gets chaotic if you concentrate on the wrong enemy. I really felt like this game was challenging but not too difficult. It took me quite a while to beat some stages and the last boss rush stage was a bear, but I was able to persevere. Very satisfying game. Highly Recommend! I've seen other reviews where people are complaining that you can't target precisely, but I think that's part of the game mechanics. Of course if you target an enemy, then hide under cover, you lose your target. If you target, then roll out of an attack you lose your target. And the targeting seems to auto target the closest enemy available at time of target. Makes sense, and you have to understand that the game was designed that way. Don't complain because it doesn't play the way you want it to or you can't precisely target an enemy. I finished the whole game, and all 50 stages, and if you play within the systems of the game, you can beat it. I played on regular difficulty. This game is more about playing defensively and avoiding damage than precisely targeting key enemies.
