I'm going to have to disagree with you here Hobbs, i know it's a free game but the graphics are a bit basic. I've only played the first level and a half but there was no variation in enemies, no power up for the main weapon, the special weapons don't seem to tie in with the icon on the screen (a lightning bolt sign for a special weapon that creates a wave around your ship?).

Like I said I've only played the first one and a half levels and I haven't read any instructions yet but I'm not overly impressed with the game yet.

Still can't complain I've paid for worse games (Metal Dungeon on the Xbox).

I thought it was a pretty good game, only played till the halfway mark. Got to damn hard for me, was never good at side scrolling shoting games. But for a free game looked pretty good.

I got to say at the halfway mark it got pretty crazy, with the corn cob ships, and the purple ones all over the place, plus the little balls of death. Got to much for me lol.

All in all for a free game very nicely done.

it gets alot funner when you try to do the achievements, like not getting hit the whole level, or not shooting the whole level. check out the superweapons when you get all 4 ships together too!
