Galactic Glitch

Fun game. I like the challenges. Story is nothing to write home about.

Bought the game on a whim for dirtcheap in a bundle with Minishoot Adventure. Just like that, seemingly randomly, I stumbled upon one of the best Roguelite games I’ve ever played and It’s also a great Shoot Them up. It’s very light on the lite though and by that I mean the meta progression gives you better tools but it’s not that much better. You mostly get more options. + Solid game mechanics. As a shmup / bullet hell it does its job very well. The gameplay is satisfying and rewarding and pretty chaotic on the higher iterations of the game. + Lots of possibilities with builds and synergies and they really change the way you play the game. You thought that skills or that weapon was trash until you find out it synergies with that other skill and it’s bookers. Very well designed and there are way more viable possibilities than some would like to claim. + Very challenging. Getting to the end credit is pretty tough and there isn’t much to grind for help. After the end you unlock an infinite mode even harder I don’t have much negatives about the game. - The soundtrack is sometimes nice and other times passable. - The runs are a bit long IMO. Like 1h per run. Rating: 9/10
