Games Fine, its feels like its 10 years older then it is though. Not worth $5 but if you can get it on sale I would pick it up.
This is one of those games that's more fun with others, and a bit dull if played by yourself. The idea of the game is very simple, you manage a ship and fly it.

I bought this game ages ago when i had more free time. Cranked it up tonight to see what it was about and yeah don't bother. Kill baddies efficiently to get upgrades to eventually death or glory into the sunset. The game play feels wooden and you're on rails. If you were looking for even remotely some control of the zep forget it.
While Guns of Icarus is a great game, This is not. It is poorly made and has quite a few bugs. Get it on sale for the GOI cosmetic other than that its not really worth it.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t even know Guns Of Icarus had a predecessor until I looked on the Wikipedia page earlier this month. This entry displays many characteristics of what I would assume to be inspirations (Laputa: Castle In The Sky, Mad Max, maybe even a little Star Wars or Fifth Element), and I feel that a lot of said inspiration was also lost during the development of the following entries. Then again, I haven’t played any of the Icarus games in over a decade, so maybe I’m just misremembering. The concept and gameplay loop are both solid, but in the end, it really does just feel like a low-budget Guns Of Icarus. It’s got a good soundtrack, although there’s only one song, and the campaign has a decent bit of “content”, but due to the way the campaign actually works, you need to do at least three full playthroughs in order to see it all. Each level is essentially timed survival, but depending on what path you take, you’ll get more/harder enemies and different loot upon level completion. There’s also a bit of lore on each destination in-between levels, which is accompanied by some decent art. The UI is a mess and it lacks basic options such as a sensitivity slider, plus there’s a really weird post-processing filter which makes the entire game look like ass. It’s not bad, but even as a fan of singleplayer games, I don’t see a world in which I would ever choose to play this over either of the sequels. If you’re a fan of the Guns Of Icarus franchise, pick it up on sale for a dollar and see where the series got its roots. If you’ve never even heard of Guns Of Icarus up until this point, give it a pass.
Super!
