Galacticon is a wonderful study in race relations. 10/10.
Perfectly solid fake retro game. Actually "gets it" (see Locomalito games, Game Center CX 1 and 2). Well-made from a software standpoint (supports 4:3 and 16:9, works with my kind of weird controller setup without any fuss).

Absolutely worth it on sale, one of the few games to really nail every bit of the jarvis games from controls to sound to design philosophy.
Saw this on Talk About Games with Ryan Schott & Mike Matei. Single-screen arcade style is the retro experience I didn't know I needed. Its not something I'm going to pour hundreds of hours into, but makes a fantastic few-minutes-to-kill pickup & play job. All for the low low price of 20 credits, plus the added benefit of not needing to wait for mom to bring you down to the pizzeria, begging her for quarters, and hoping the cabinet hasn't been swapped for a rigged crane game. 10/10, would wage war on humans to rescue racist aliens again.
Better than Galaga, Joust, and Defender combined. I would love to play this game on the iiRcade home arcade cabinet. Very controller friendly. Check out my video review here: https://youtu.be/JATe_pYwV28
This game reminds me of Joust and Defender combined into one game. It is extremely fast paced and your Playing Character will die many times before you even begin mastering this game. As a side note, could you release this game on the Atari VCS system....
Takes me right back. Bloomin love it :)
Un regreso a los arcades de los 80. Adrenalina, disparos, acción y habilidad. Aquí el aburrimiento está prohibido
