Skycadia

Will find yourself repeating levels due to login issues, and some achievements are worded poorly, but it's a mostly functioning in between games game.

This has the look and feel of a smooth shooter from the PS1 & Saturn days. My only complaint is this game needs Mutliplayer. Co-op, with the option to turn on/off friendly fire. Or even with co-op an addition to deathmatch too. Other than that, the performance and controls are spot on!

I get it, small indy studio, casual game, but there is nothing to this game really. Play for 30 minutes and you have seen all this game has to offer. Endless waves with progessive difficulty. Trailer was misleading, I thought there was going to be some lighthearted narritive and boss bounty dogfights, but no, just endless hordes that kamakaze towards you. No way to slow down for a sharper turn or large ship approach, so you will crash into them, alot. Killing smaller planes is pointless as it results in always being shot. Lastly, the world is so tiny, why am I getting pop-in? Many missed opportunities here. Casual dosen't have to mean basic.

I bought this game a few years ago and it was a great, charming, challenging arcade flight game. What made this game stand out from the rest of the indie flight game was that the maps were small planets w/ a couple of landmasses so you can avoid enemy fire and never fell cornered. It was fun. I just update it to find out the charming planet maps have been swapped by vast, empty areas w/ enemies that have almost perfect aim so now you die way too fast. It now feels generic.

Know what you are buying. 5gs. Actually fun though.
