The Cruise 2

Excellent Galaga style space shooter, fun classes to choose from, good music. Definitely worth a dollar!

The Cruise is an abandoned 2D retro pixel Space Invaders/Galaga ripoff. While it's not in Early Access, it's incomplete and lacking features that will never be added to the game. The two game modes that were implemented are a boss rush mode and an endless mode where you shoot stuff and dodge bullets. The controls are fairly wonky as the ship erratically aims left and right. There's a series of ship upgrades, and belying the developers true, if failed intentions for this unfinished game, it looks like there's the stub of a cash shop. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. Unethically, the developers are making the game free, but as a last-ditch cash grab they sold keys in bulk to DailyIndieGame. I'm not sure who lost more here, DIG for buying bulk keys for a free game, or any gamers who paid money for this incomplete mess (but I feel there's not many of those).

The game dev was kind enough to share a copy of this game with me so I could write a review. After a few hours of game play I can say it delivers on the description. This game is a space, retro, Galaga style game. My critiques would be that a lot goes on on screen at once and can be a little overwhelming, as well as I would like more in game progression such as power ups while playing, rewarding you for surviving a longer amount of time/making you stronger or healing you over time. I like the class concept and the bosses/mode for 1v1ing bosses. Overall a good game especially for a learning/new game dev. I would recommend getting the game for some fun and over just the fact that the main dev/creator is very kind and put a lot of effort into this for their first game.

Excited for the overhail

[h1]Before I played The Cruise, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

虽然免费，但玩起来确实有些无聊，尤其是Mend飞船解锁之后，除了激光那关别的关卡闭着眼睛一直点鼠标右键都能过关，就算是激光那关爆发高，也不过就是看两眼屏幕就能轻松通关的程度，大部分时间还是用在了刷1000敌人的成就上。另外误伤打boss的成就感觉用stalker会容易些，主要是爆发高，打前两个boss躲队友飞机后边很快就能打完boss

Игра The Cruise 2 – это настоящий подарок для любителей симуляторов круизных лайнеров. Разработчики проделали колоссальную работу, чтобы передать атмосферу морских путешествий: от детализированных интерьеров кают и ресторанов до живописных пейзажей за бортом. Управление судном реализовано на высочайшем уровне, требуя от игрока внимания и точности. Особенно порадовала проработка погодных условий, которые напрямую влияют на геймплей. Однако, стоит отметить, что игра может показаться несколько монотонной для тех, кто ищет динамичный экшн. Здесь акцент сделан на релаксацию и погружение в роль капитана, а не на стремительные события. Любителям же вдумчивого геймплея, где каждая деталь имеет значение, The Cruise 2 подарит немало часов увлекательного времяпрепровождения. Управление маршрутами, контроль за пассажирами и решение возникающих ситуаций – всё это держит в напряжении, но в то же время расслабляет. Однозначно рекомендую тем, кто ищет что-то новое и нетривиальное в мире игровых симуляторов.
