A budget shooter in the style of Geometry Wars. The game control could have been a little more precise, I played the game with a PS3 controller. The camera feels like it is zoomed in to close and it takes a little to long to reposition itself. Your ship has health and takes damage when you run into enemies or are hit by enemy fire and you are given a few bombs that destroy the enemies around you. A map on the top right of your screen shows the location of your ship and enemies, but when you start fighting enemies from all sides it seems to get in the way more than anything else, it is useful to show the locations of dropped powerups though. Powerups can give you bombs, health, speed boosts, rapid fire, triple shots, and homing shots. The poweups will wear out over time but if your ship is destroyed you respawn at the start of the wave still keeping the active powerups that you had. There is not much regular enemy variety, they include a ship that shoots at you, one that attempts to dodge your shots, a group of ships that spawn in a row along one side of the map and travel back and forth trying to run into you, two unarmed enemies, and a very annoying type that appears in random spots in the map and shoots you. A large boss spawns every 10 waves as well as regular enemies, the bosses aren't too difficult to dodge and are easy to hit with their side. It is difficult to avoid the fire of the enemy type that appears near you and they are easy to crash into due to a combination of the camera, how close they appear to you, and because of the boost powerup. The game is not that good and there are better things to spend your money on, but it can be entertaining for a short time.
