What players love
Players place it next to Homeworld: a space tactics roguelite where you pilot one capital ship, assign weapons to targets, dive through enemy squadrons and get home before the run ends. Reviewers praise the distinct feel of each ship, the loot variety, the minimalist look and the music, admit the controls take a while, and point to a solo developer who listens; their advice is to try the demo first.
