Seven Suns of Orion

fun space shooter recommended because dev's put in a lot of good work to improve the game since launch

Great mix of Star Control and Vampire Survivors! Lots of fun, great weapon and ship variety. Highly recommended!

Super-fun bullet heaven game in spaaaaaace. Start with a single weapon (sometimes 2), destroy baddies, then harvest scrap dots to a chorus of dopamine-inducing pings. The space and gravity physics feel great, and so far the developer has been very active fixing bugs and adding content. They're a solo developer, so there's a limited number of levels and ships. But each ship plays radically different from the others. And each level has a unique hazard that requires different tactics from each ship. (For those who played it just after release: The speed of the maelstrom has been dialed back by half, so it's genuinely fun now.)

Fantastic game. Very addicting. It has that carrot on stick that keeps you wanting more. Very unique in it's game play. For those that aren't used to the type of momentum space flight this has, it may take a bit getting used too, but it is fun once you get the hang of it. Very much like arcades back in the day like Asteroids. The 7 minute time is such a breath of fresh air compared to the 20min runs on others. It feels just right and allows me to pick up and play without thinking about it or worrying if I have enough time for a run. The different ships make each level difficult in it's own way which really extends the play of the game. I hope dev continues with development of game even though I consider it complete as is. It would always be nice to see a couple of extra ships or enemies down the road. Highly recommended.

Doesn't have the complete variety of what Vampire Survivors has but does scratch that itch well with the physics twist

Long time waiting among the vampires, magic, fantasy, horses, knights etc. Finally!

Would recommend for a playthrough! It could definitely use a little balance. Some weapons and combos are definitely better than others, and a cap on how many Repulsors you can take might make it a little more difficult, but it was a great romp overall. Reminds me of an old gem from the '90s called "Silent Death Online" There are a few little things like the sound being broken (If you turn it down sometimes it just turns all of the sound off, or sometimes just select sounds like weapons, then if you alt tab or something it cranks everything back up despite showing the lower sound settings. Also the way the camera tries to keep you and the boss on screen at all times makes it a little disorientating. Maybe just a little orbjective arrow could fulfil the same purpose. Overall though, good fun!
