A Space Shooter for Two Bucks Review (PS Mini)



Posted by Christophor Rick (TheSuperGuido), 7 days ago

Each sector in campaign is topped off with a boss battle. Every couple sectors when you defeat the boss you get another special weapon that you can switch between when you need them. Black hole guns,

For a two dollar shooter, this game is great. It took me a bit of time to really get into it as I don’t dig the impossibly hard shooter but like older ones like Galaga. This one has elements of both so it will appeal to a wide range of players. Since it’s a PS mini don’t expect really high end graphics or sound. They did do a lot of work in the voices for the game for the cut scenes. Although, they get tiresome after awhile and I just ended up skipping over them to get back to the game.

A space shooter for 2 bucks

Overall, A Space Shooter for Two Bucks from Frima Studios is a great shooter for a great price. The graphics are nice on the PSP but a bit chunky on the PS3 if you’re playing on a large screen. The voices are a bit over the top but still well done. The game is fun and engrossing and offers lots of hours per dollar (since it’s only 2).

Good on the PSP, blocky on the PS3, but it’s a PS Mini, it’s to be expected.

Lots of voice work and music along with standard sound effects. Overall it works well together.

Shmup it up! It’s fast and furious wave-based gameplay with upgradeable ship and power buffs as well as special weapons. A good mix of gameplay.
