Super fun little game at an amazing price. Yeah it's a wave shooter but it's different then most because of the constant foward motion. It's pretty addictive trying to get the high score. I would like to see this expanded with maybe a few more ship types and power ups but it's already very solid. Come and try to beat my high score. Suggestion: Add some more ways to score points. Maybe some sort of multiplyer. Add on a bunus for beating a wave while taking no damage.

First of all how is this game only £1.59, It is an awesome game, If it was £5.99 it would still be an awesome game, It was that good after playing I bought my friend a copy as well. I love how the developers have gone for a dual style, In the one hand the background and the spaceship look real, and then in the other hand the gun firing and explosives are in a pixel art style, it looks awesome and plays awesome too. This title is a must buy, not just for you, but for a friend as well. 10/10
Excellent game with fun gameplay for a bargain price. Highly recommended.
This game is awesome for the 2$ price tag. Its basically an old school arcade jet shooter game, but in VR. There are alot of other popular game types on the Vive such as the sword type or the wave shooter type games, but to my knowledge this is the first Vive game, at least on Steam, that gives this vr space shooter experience so I think its a great game to add to your collection. The environments look pretty nice also, and it doesn't really make you motion sick even though the movement is artificial ( probably because the ship's position is always the same relative to yourself ).
Unbeatable value at 1.99! It even surpasses shooters I´ve paid 15 euro for in here, global leaderboards, very retro-ish style, jitter free gameplay. The Game: You´re essentially shooting asteroids and spaceships, you navigate your way trough space while blasting up and mining asteroids for those pretty gems and collect as many as you can with your second wand. The wand has tractor-beaming so you can collect those gems from a distance - but not too far as you´ll miss them. AFAIK you can eventually use a short-lasting SHIELD if you collect enough of those little gems and use the second controller to protect yourself from incoming bullets. This is a room-scale shooter so you´re gonna move around a bit, especially when those labyrinth space-station-rocks come scrolling towards you, there are enemies and bonuses to collect inside those, so keep looking for that extra stuff. Pros: - Awesome smooth scrolling space shooter arcade game for only 1.99! - Has more variation that many of...
At the asking price this is pretty much a must buy for any Vive owner. This remindes me of the Commodore era side scroller shoot em ups. You fly "inwards" instead, but otherwise it's the same concept as games like Delta. The soundtrack is a big plus as well, and fits very well into the game. There are a few bugs and annoyances, like how you can't see the UI if you crash inside a maze. The control of you ship is a bit "rubbery", like if you had it attached to a rubber band. It takes a bit of getting used to. Those are very minor quips, and there are a lot of games on Steam that shipped in a much worse condition.
another great arcade title for the vive leaderboards as well wich is really important for replay value and competition i cant wait to see where this radical game goes reminds me of asteroids zaxxon and a few other great early 80s arcade classics keep up these great little experiences devs and for only 2$ you cant beat it im fully hooked
I have 333 steamVR games, and i keep coming back to this one. it's simple, well made, charming. I especially like the levels where i'm navigating the ship through a course! Great job devs, I'd like to see what game is next :)
I like this game. I would love to see more arcade-type and VR remakes of the classic arcade games. The visuals are way cool. The concept of being "in" the game and being able to actually deliver that with VR is a welcomed experience. This is well worth the $2. The experience is worth a lot more than the price.
This game is absolutly incredible. I rarely write a review but this one really deserves it. Its a classic style shooter and runs flawlessly and glitch free in VR on my Vive with a i7600K, 32 gig ram / NVidia 980ti. First of all at $1.99 its a steal. You have your ship in one hand and a crystal collector which converts to a shield when it is powered up. Your enemies are drones that shoot at you and you shoot asteriods of various sizes to get the crystals as well as getting them from the drones and other enemies. You go through waves and between the shooting you go through narrow areas that completey surround you and the immersive feeling is so intense and polished. It has great graphics with an amazing mezmorizing soundtract that adds so much to the game. Music is such a huge part of any VR experence and there are SO many devolopers that have great sounding music when your viewing their videos at the Steam store and you buy the game and theres little or nothing. Now the very slight nega...
