Ok lets get one thing really straight: am I enjoying this game? Yes. it is pretty darn good.

So why the down thumb? Because Steam doesn't ask the question if I like it or not, but if I would recommend it. There are a few reasons why I wouldn't. Its a great GB style Contra clone..so if you just care about that then sure..why not? Here come the reasons why I say no overall:

First the levels can drag. I am through the second boss, and also have achievements for beating the first 9 mini bosses. So that means 4-5 mini bosses per level. And the way the continues work...you could get to the last boss and die, then have to do them all over again. I grew up on NES, and I get that frustration level. But we didn't know better back then. Now this formula feels a little too archaic.

Next is the color combination. I get that it is mimicking the GB. But no matter what color pattern you choose, it is still hard to see some of the shots. A big majority of my hits on the first level were because I didn't even know there were shots on the screen. And the mech in the 2nd level seems to have a weird hit box. Half my hits in it looked like they shouldn't have hit.

Now for the big one: it is one player only. These type of games work best when they are 2 player+ remote play. I would love to play this with my buddies....but can't. Even the GB had a link cable. This should be two player.

And for $10...it feels overpriced. This should be more around the $4.99 price point. Super Cyborg is only $5, and it has online co-op. G-Warrior is only $5 and I have played that with a buddy through remote play.

I don't hate this game. It is enjoyable. But it just has too many strikes and feels overpriced for me to say it is a definite purchase. If you get it you will probably enjoy it. But it could have been more. Double the level count by cutting them in half, add more highlight for the shots, and add a 2nd player...and the $10 would be worth it. Until then: sale only if you already have all the others that are 2 player+.

And a quick warning: this game goes full Battletoads frusteration toward the end of mission 3. If you know the super annoying part of Battletoads....you will see it here.
