Skycadia

The graphics are vibrant, sharp and give a retro-styled feel. The sound design is good in general, but i think the music could get some more work, as it is not very engaging and it becomes repetitive after a few minutes. The gameplay is easy to pick up and play, as the mechanics are extremely simple, maybe too much for it's own good... so i got bored fast and thought "is this it?". I think this game should get a little bit more depth and ways to engage the player, more objectives to do, more maneuvers (like a way to control thrust to manually stall the plane for example) and it would be good if the game communicated better the objectives to the player, as it only states "kill these guys and collect money". I get that the idea is for the game to be simple and minimalistic in essence, but with a presentation so pretty, the rest feels disappointing, like a very pretty good looking tech-demo (that you have to pay to play). In conclusion, i'd like to see more of this game, and i sincerely think there is potential for something special here, but sadly there's just not enough content and gameplay to justify the admission price at the moment.

Fun dogfight game (the airplane kind, not DMX kind) with kind of retro 3d graphics, really enjoying it so far. Working on upping my dogfighting skills so I can collect larger bounties during rounds and unlock some of the additional content! Recommended for a fun, easy to learn game that doesn't require a large time commitment to jump into and play a few rounds. Edit: there is some cool stuff that happens when you can survive longer in rounds and build the per-round bounty -- definitely more depth to this than initially meets the eye.

Отличный таймкиллер. Задача игрока: собрать как можно больше золота, которое падает с подстреленных врагов. Максимально банально, большего и не надо. В игре всего 3 персонажа и 3 типа орудия, которые, разумеется, покупаются за накопленное золото. Играется очень приятно, музончик не надоедает, а визуал не режет глаз.

Le jeu est vraiment très intéressant, avec son style visuel rétro et un gameplay très arcade. Le jeu peut au début sembler très frustrant mais quand on commence à comprendre toutes les mécaniques il devient très agréable. En plus le développeur répond rapidement et est très attentif a ce que dit la communauté.

This is by far the most exciting thrill ride of a highscore leaderboard battling game I've played in many years. At the start, you are set to begin unlocking the other pilots and weapons (3 of each). It may seem like a huge hurdle, but once you get your mind past the unlocks and just concentrate on the leaderboard, it becomes all or nothing. Set in a retro 90's look with it's vibrant landscapes and scan lines, you feel right at home. (Well I do). The chiptune music sets the scene for the 3 stages the game throws at you. First a light tune as the first wave of enemy ships spawn in, then a faster arrangement as the flying centipedes swoop around and finally the boss music kicks, and you know by then, things are gonna go down. In no way does it sound annoying or repetitive (I'm currently 10hrs in), the only annoyance is when you die and have to start again from scratch...but which you do immediately :D Rage quitting is easy to do too, but like all rage quitting games, like Super Hexagon... you always feel the need to give it one more try. Another awesome thing is that the dev is constantly engaging with the fan base and developing the game based on feedback. We've seen more worlds to fly around in and new ways to reach new heights on the board. The controls are tight too and no death feels cheap. If you love highscorers, there's no better title than Skycadia to fullfill your need. Do I reccomend this game? HELL YEAH!!! :D

Absolutely love this game, 10/10.

"Pixelized, Fast paced, Action packed flight shoot em up'" The more and more i played the more challenging the game got, keeping me at my toes with it's rouge-like enemy system, as soon as i had overcome a difficult enemy a new enemy would appear and kill me several more times. The controls are simple and easy and the smoothness you can achieve once you've mastered the plane is awesome. I did have to toggle the inverted vertical controls, as flying felt much better that way. The daylight cycle makes the game more interesting as the environment changes with the lighting. At night you can watch your bullets light up the clouds and environment as you blast enemies. and vice versa I feel that it would feel nicer if the daylight cycle would change during a match, but seems it shifts with each death for the time being. The price is well worth the package for what your getting, definitely would recommend to anyone out there. The only warning i have is that you might not stop playing.

Fun gameplay, cool retro visuals, and it'll make you feel like you're playing in an actual arcade cabinet. It's a must-get if you love dogfights. I think the only downside is the lack of extra game modes (besides the standard arcade mode), so that you can play more.
