STELLATUM

Finished the game 100% within 30h. It's kinda short for an arcade game as this could be easily a 200h game with more content and levels. However, it was much fun and if you find this on sale, just grab it. You won't regret.

красивая картинка. баланс кривой до невозможности. ощущение что создатели игры вообще не играли в свой "продукт"

So much potential, great ideas around the upgrades, but sadly everything is locked behind an endless grind for resources/parts, to unlock new weapons that are only available as you progress thru the levels. Can't get past a level because your ship is underpowered? Go back and grind the easier levels for resources. Grinding is made super bad because the levels are all basically the same, all equally non-rewarding - nothing happens other than the same types of enemies shooting the same types of stuff at you - there are no in-level powerups, nothing exciting in the levels themselves - you just slug to the end, and see if you farmed any components to get the next upgrade that the game thinks you are entitled to at this stage of the game. Could have been heaps better with a few tweaks in the design.

Монотонный, но неплохой шутемап с буллетхеллом в придачу. На вечер-два пойдёт

I beat this game years ago when it came out, likely in late 2017 or early 2018. It's an alright game, but the issue is that there are only 50 levels and the end of the story is confusing at best, very much like the ending of Dead Space 3. Ultimately, upgrades are linear, so customization isn't really a thing, as it would be very unlikely to use lower dps weapons than the higher DPS weapons. Additionally, weapons don't upgrade, so if you find one that you really like once you get a better one, you won't be going back. It's fun, but it's no Raiden Fighters.

A lesson why you should read reviews for a game before spending money on it

After two more hours of the same ♥♥♥♥... I said to myself... "Why the hell would I even bother playing this ♥♥♥♥?" If the developers never bothered to test it, why would I waste time and play it? I deleted the game and that's it. P.S. The game might be decent and somewhat interesting but the items you get, the blueprints are chaotic and quite expensive to manufacture without a reason. A laser is 5 times less expensive than a shotgun because.. reasons. I don't mind that the balance is stupid but at least give me something interesting to use, a weapon that I might like, a shield that efficient or at least something that is good against hoards of enemies...
