I've currently played 9 hours on Star' Shoot and have noticed no one has currently made a review (English wise) for Star' Shoot, here's my review and experience from the game.
[h1]What is Star' Shoot?[/h1]
Star' Shoot is a top-down shoot 'em up arcade-style game. Currently the game is in early access, it has a tutorial mode which takes you through the basics of the game and an endless mode for you to unleash destruction upon your enemies. There is a story mode planned but isn't currently implemented.
[h1]Gameplay[/h1]
When you start endless mode you are given a ship which can only fire 2 small blasts at a time, but there are pick ups you can collect which will power up your ship in different ways depending on the pick up you collect.
The pick up system in this game is unique, you can only collect 1 form of pick ups at a time. Each time you collect a pick up of the same form you upgrade it with the maximum amount you can collect is 5 (The game will display this as MAX), if you were to collect another pick up it would erase all the amount of pick ups you got for the previous one. However if your "Overcharge" is at 100% you can press space to blow up your ship and then collect the parts, if you do collect all the parts your ship gets revived otherwise you'll lose 1 live point. Either way all the pick ups you have collected remain permanent throughout the rest of your current play-through. Then you can go and collect other pick ups to power up your ship even more, this adds great customisation to the game. Allowing you to try out different combos.
You have 4 lives to begin with in each play-through, each time you die the parts of your ships go flying over the place. If you manage to collect all the parts you revive your ship without losing any lives, but if your ship gets destroyed and you haven't collected all the parts your ship still gets revived but at the cost of one live point.
They also have a difficulty system in place, the further you last in your current play-through the more difficult it will get. This will lead to you discovering new enemies, attack patterns and eventually big bosses that will test your skills!
[h1]Score system[/h1]
One of my favourite aspects of this game, the score system. In the game each enemy you kill adds a number to your combo streak which will multiply the amount of points you get from each enemy you destroy. You can keep adding more and more numbers onto this combo streak to rack in some crazy amount of points. But be careful because the combo streak will start going down if you do not find an enemy to destroy.
When your ship is eventually destroyed your score is revealed and is placed on the leaderboards. My current highscore is 1.8+ Million on the leaderboards, try and beat me :P
[h1]Shop[/h1]
This game has a shop which you can purchase items which will aid you in your future play-throughs, these can range from new stat boosts to new weapons. You gain credits from doing play-throughs, the further you get in your play-through the more credits you will be awarded when all your live points are gone, you also gain a stack of credits when you defeat a boss.
[h1]Conclusion[/h1]
I highly recommend this game for the price it's at, it's got everything an arcade game should have along with introducing some new game mechanics.
[h1]Brief note[/h1]
This is my first proper review I have made for a game, it might not be the best review that exists but I hope it will give you a rough idea of what the game is like and why I highly recommend it.
