No Way Home

I barely play games. The last time I enjoyed a shoot-em-up as much as this, was Xenon II in the 90s.

Simple, straightforward mechanics. Funny writing and just enough story to hold things together. You upgrade your ship and it's equipment as you go along. It's fun to see what your new weapons do. If you're looking for a space game that's easy to get into, this is definitely a game that you should try out.

it's a really nice game could've had more depth and story, the upgrading system could use a lot of work, but i believe in the vision of this it just clicks.

Quite fun and entertaining twin-stick shooter adventure that I didn't put down. A pretty good challenge overall with a handful of especially hard fights. There's a gun-overheating mechanic, so a big heat sink provides an edge. You'll roll around in the snow during combat, and you'll tow icebergs with your grappling hook when you're going after big game. The writing is pretty good and often very funny. All kid-friendly, too. The conversation UI is excellent, with huge, easy-to-read text and funny character animations, and it's all voice-acted (really well!). Inventory management is a paragon of simplicity, and you have unlimited storage, so you can ignore your bag of loot in favor of exploring for as long as you like. If I had any criticism of the game at all, it would be that the inventory management needs sorting controls (or better sorting). 10/10 v stoked to discover it has New Game+ which I will be playing as soon as I finish this review. Will be keeping an eye on the developer for sure, this one didn't have a sour note.

after beating the game im going to have to give this a middling rating its a so-so time killer on a steep discount i liked the mini-mission stories/characters, they were silly... and the game ran pretty smoothly BUT: 90% of the weapons are useless aside from shotguns and a few other special types (all other weapons did about 20-30% or less dmg in comparison) tho the main reason im compelled to give negative review is "matey" your compantion helper is constantly grapling items and launching them away from you when you are going to pick them up (EVERYTHING in the game is manual pickup and the ai parter tries to grapple stuff and bring it too you like an awkward child when they should of just had the same pickup on touch the player has) the inventory uses a scrolling system and while that alone is horrible (even more so for collector type players).... there is no sort or auto salvage options... and all salvage is manual.. requiring you to inspect each piece then hold a button to scrap it the game NEVER STOPS REMINDING YOU about the domes you go to for main mission progress... and all the other battle quips are repeated so often you want to launch both characters into the sun.... almost all travel is manual... unless you use the domes of the main story line which can warp to each other... which i did a total of.. about twice the whole game... (game BADLY needed a fast travel option as a number of reviews have mentioned) few other notpic's im too tired to combobulate... P.S. while im genuinely giving this game a needed negative review... i do hope the dev team makes lots of improvements for their upcoming game in this universe... as it does have potential for a good sequel/ spinoff etc

A great, fun, well-crafted little game. I love it

Graphics are incredible, and this is cosy gaming at its best. You can drift through space leisurely, or zip on through and speed. The game is low stress, as death brings you back safely to the last warp gate. The game also has an ongoing story arc, but one that unfolds leisurely over time. I'm really enjoying this and hope the developer releases more like this.

i didnt like that enemy bullets were unavoidable. 90% of enemy bullets where homing shots and there was such a mass of enemys that i spend the most time of the game hiding behind rocks waiting for my shield to regenerate

A truly excellent game. Inspired, engaging, funny and clearly made with love. Very recommended, especially considering the really competitive price.
