Jogo perfeito para os fãs de tiro em 2d, o jogo tem uma boa trilha sonora, fases bem trabalhadas, dificuldade de mediana pra díficil e o que é bem legal e diferente de outros jogos do estilo, é que tem vários modos de jogo (Historia, Arcade, Sobrevivencia e desafios) Curti bastante a criatividade do modo de desafios. Se você não é cheio de mimimi, curte jogos desse estilo e gosta de dificuldade, esse é o jogo!

You can yaw the fighter in the STG! Very good plot and paintings, but textures not that relevant to the lore, upgrade combination is somewhat creative (a little bit) I admire the protagonist, he can have such a beautiful and tender lover, I will definitely do the same thing to resurrect her if I have one as well...
Космический shoot ’em up с элементами RPG: игрок управляет кораблём, сражается с врагами, собирает кристаллы для улучшений и проходит несколько уровней с боссами. Доступны разные режимы (сюжетный, аркадный, выживание и испытания), а также выбор из шести судов с возможностью прокачки оружия, дронов и характеристик. Плюсы: разнообразие режимов — сюжетный, аркадный, выживание и короткие испытания в стиле ретро‑игр; гибкая система улучшений — можно выбирать, что прокачивать (оружие, броню, генераторы, дроны), в зависимости от стиля игры; масштабные боссы — битвы с несколькими фазами, где тактика меняется по ходу сражения. Минусы: нет русской локализации — весь текст и интерфейс на английском языке; высокая сложность на высоких уровнях — может отпугнуть новичков, особенно в режимах «хард» и «экстрим»; скудный сюжет — история подаётся кратко (текстовыми вставками между уровнями) и не играет ключевой роли в геймплее. Итог: динамичный космический шутер для любителей классических аркадных сражений и прокачки — подойдёт тем, кто хочет уворачиваться от залпов, собирать ресурсы, улучшать корабль и бросать вызов многофазным боссам в разных игровых режимах.
Muy entretenido, muy buena musica de fondo. Es una buena experiencia!

"Dark Old Sun" is is a failed attempt to make a 2D retro bullet hell/shoot 'em up in 2018, some 30 odd years after the genre became obsolete. Smart business plan. Anyway, at least it was genuinely made as far as I can tell, not an asset flip or anything. But genuine intent does not automatically translate to a stellar gaming experience, as this game shows. What do you do in the game? It's really basic shoot 'em up stuff, but at least they got the game to work and play in widescreen. Unfortunately it's clunky and unpolished, not that much fun to play, and has a trite and pointlessly unengaging storyline. A whole bunch of things here aren't done well, to the point that this is less than the sum of its parts. On the topic of visuals, the weak looking 2D retro assets seem like they'd be more at home in a browser game or a mobile app. 3D graphics accelerators hit the mainstream of PC gaming in the mid 1990's with cards like the ATI Rage and Voodoo3D, there's no excuse for such poor 2D graphics in 2025. That alone is enough to disqualify this for recommendation. This game is fairly dated at 7 years old... and even back then it looked old and busted compared to contemporary, professionally made 3D games of the same period. It looked bad then, it looks worse now. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. There's no initial download price, but the developer was charging $5 USD for this. Price barriers, especially on low quality products, can be a direct cause of failure. It seems like a nice gesture for the game to have no up-front cost anymore, but it also tells us that the game wasn't good enough to succeed as a paid product. This is also a bit of a slap in the face to anyone who showed enough questionable judgement to pay money for this... nobody got refunded. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at [b]only 4 concurrent players[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? What's the verdict? Pass on this one. There's no immediate financial commitment, but there are thousands of more compelling games on the platform that will give you a lot more enjoyment for your time.
Um otimo jogo, me diverti bastante enquanto zerava ele e tenho certeza que jogarei mais no modo sobrevivencia
很有趣的打飞机游戏,画面不错,操作不错,弹幕设计也有意思,难度中偏下,有剧情
ótimo jogo viciante
