Well this turned out to be quite the delight!
Sometimes it's hard to read just how a game is going to play until you actually boot it up and dive in, and this game is one of those that ends up being so much more fun than you could have possibly imagined!
Where to start? Well, first off the learning curve from the tutorial level to starting off proper is just right. You get taught all the ins and outs in an efficient manner and whatever other little titbits are left to be learned can be picked up pretty easily on the fly.
The variety of different enemies and weapons is great, and I have a feeling that as the development of this game continues we'll only see that expanded upon! Plenty of wily bad guys to battle and plenty more shooty bang-bangs to pop 'em with!
The random generation of each screen was something I wasn't expecting. It actually took me a little while to realize that you weren't just trekking through the same screens each playthrough, that's how subtle it is! Either that or I'm just terribly perceptive... yeah that's probably it. Whatever, it's another awesome aspect of the game!
This one definitely gets my seal of approval, and anyone who's into side-scrolling shoot-em-ups with big heaping helpfuls of weird thrown into the mix better get strapped in and ready for one heck of a ride! =)
