Super Galaxy Squadron EX Turbo

You know the development is a bit special when you have a custom song in the end tailored to the contents of the game.

очень клевый визуал, классный буллетхелл минус: ОЧЕНЬ короткая, прошел за вечер

very fun but very short

Не моя история.

-its a decent schmup. -vets of the genre will really get a kick out of it. -casual gamers will enjoy the first 5/6ths of the campaign (the difficulty ramps up exponentially from there) - honestly, we're lucky we can play it at all the way these games go. -no UWHD support (literally need to change monitor settings or game won't run correctly). -often freezes when minimized with alt-tab. (nit-picky but important but to me) -one save slot (and no overwrite warning - so beware). -myriad of difficulty settings but only one is really suitable for casual gamers and only partially (see above). -no way to turn down the music without turning down the general volume (SFX necessary for gameplay). -isn't really worth more than $5 imho (i paid less than $1 and that seems appropriate for how much i'll be able to get out of it as a casual schmup-player) unless you're a true vet of genre. -ship variety is amazing - the weapons/maneuverability/aesthetic of each really set them apart from one another. -the campaign narrative is simply but well-executed with beautiful pixel art -no way (for me at least) to take F12(STEAM) screenshots (i've noticed this with a few pixel games) and that REALLY sucks because the game can be truly beautiful at points -final level is much more difficult then the level directly preceding it - but its a doable challenge -final boss is easily 10x as difficult as the penultimate level directly preceding it. i feel soft-locked from the ending and discouraged from attempting it many more times (tried at least a dozen times to no avail despite being able to complete every other level in 2 attempts or less). some folks will love this sort of challenge - others will loathe it. for me, such intense difficulty progression (especially when it did not exist before) breaks immersion, corrodes fun and general replayability, and seems a peculiar choice for the "casual" difficulty setting of a game (god only knows how bad it is for every other difficulty setting).

Big love
