Solar Survivors

[code]Written By Hidden Gems Review : https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38624426/, Follow me! [/code] Solar Survivors is a BulletHell Roguelite game. The side scroll survivors like with a great build repertory depending on the weapons you select, not the best graphics but the gameplay is addictive. Nice price for the hours you can spend on it.

Another of those shmup+survivors games that doesn't do enough to stack up against the better games in the genre like [b]Gunlocked[/b] or the roguelike; [b]Steredenn[/b]. There's 3 levels and they do get a bit repetitive. Worse is the slow speed that you unlock things, which heavily limits your weapon variety. You can play multiple runs without seeing a new weapon and be stuck with the same 2-3 builds. After I did have a few things unlocked I still lacked the desire to continue because I had still seen most of the weapons & abilities at my disposal and it was the same old levels still. I think for an unknown indie project this game shows a lot of promise, to the point that I wouldn't rule out trying a sequel. As it is though, the pacing of unlocks kills any joy you'd normally get from having weapon variety and the game would probably benefit from injecting some randomization in the levels, like providing more enemy patterns & boss encounters -that'd spice things up a bit.

This game is a ton of fun. I played a ton of the demo and I'm really enjoying the full release. So much so I'm writing a wiki! Bite sized bullet hell/heaven with challenging and rewarding gameplay!

fun mix of bullet heaven & hell. 3rd stage is pretty crazy and probably needs a pretty optimized build. could probably use some more weapon/passive variety.

BoxFox does it again with another great game release. Bullet hell, bullet heaven, roguelite meta-progression, this game has it all. The game by itself isn't difficult at all. However, the challenges and achievements available to complete might have you stumped for a while. As you unlock more weapons, more equipment, and more passives, it's just a matter of finding the most ridiculously overpowered build...and some luck :')

This is a underrated gem, hidden. Top game

The game is exactly what it says it will be, a true hybrid of shmup and survivors game. I don't think it works as well as each of them individually but I only learned that via playing the game, and it's not bad as-is. It runs very well and I had zero technical problems playing under proton. There isn't much content but it's also only $5 and is definitely worth that.

Great on Steam deck

[b]Review Date:[/b] Tuesday 17, April, 2024 It's a good game, I haven't played it too much yet, but it's fun and it have a lot of content. The game is a combination of Shoot 'Em Up and Bullet Heaven (Vampire Survivors genre) by the way. I just don't know how many good shoot 'em ups are missed by people.

I love the graphics and how the bullets target the enemy on their own. I don't normally play games but I feel like I can still make progress. Very nice wording on the story and very well thought out weapon. The game makes you think what item you want to choose. I like the game.
