Habroxia Reviews

Buy it!

Fantastic shooter that respects your time and rewards your effort. Not crazy-difficult like some shooters can be but has enough of a challenge to keep you coming back for one more try. Great game for such a small price.

Pretty addictive game and fun. Good for the steam deck, I play this on my Asus Gog Ally. Also if your horrible at these games like I was at the beginning, you get tiny credits the more you play and fail. With credits you can buy upgrades on your ship, to make levels easier.

If you like shoot-em ups this game is for you. Good old-school graphics, nice soundtrack, enemy variety is good and the difficulty is challenging but fair. Plays nicely on the Steam Deck.

This is a great little retro 2D space shoot em up which is punching well above it's weight. It's like playing a shooter on my old C64 with the game design being top notch. I completed the story on my first play through with normal difficulty and was invested enough to jump straight back in on the hard mode and the game still felt fresh. The upgrades bought for the ship are not lost as you proceed though the different play modes and it makes the game even more addictive. The game always feels fair in the challenges it delivers and the developers seem to really have a good grasp on what makes this sort of game fun. As the game combines both horizontal and vertical action, this is A definite purchase for fans of both genres.

10/10 “Bullet Hell” spaceshooters are usually inaccessible for most players because they’re brutally difficult. Habroxia is immediately accessible, challenging without intense frustration… and just FUN! Can’t overstate that enough. It’s just alot of fun! Music good? Dont know…was absorbed in the fun.

Habroxia is a really fun Super Nintendo style shooter that reminds you of earlier times in gaming. I first played Habroxia on the PS Vita back in the day and really enjoyed it, a few years later I saw they had finally put it on Steam so I had to get it! The story mode they have going for it is pretty good, the level designs are great and boss battles are very fun and a decent challenge. You can also upgrade your ship and after you beat the game you can play through the harder difficulty on NG+, there's also a few extra modes you can unlock, so overall there's a ton of content to keep you invested for a good amount of time. If you like old school shooters from back in the day then I would give Habroxia a try, for the price point and amount of content you can't go wrong.

Play through here (once it processes): https://youtu.be/kdiAkFP_DaI Game is a lot of fun I honestly don't play these types of games often and I'm not the best at them. I basically bought the for the cutscene in the trailer hoping for more of those and some story, sadly there's not much in the way of that, but the game felt pretty fair and entertaining throughout UNTIL STAGE 13 where the god dang rock gobbling monster from hell blocks all your shots and makes you fight him for like 15 minutes before you can kill that god dang loser he's literally the final boss of the game 14 and 15 stages are push overs 13 REFUSES to die. Overall I really enjoyed the game stage 13 really burnt me out, but I love that there's a ton of upgrades that you can shop for and each stage has a leader board even though my scores glitched on some of the stages I believe.

Quality shmup made in the 8-bit style -- the game it immediately brings to mind is Gradius and its side-scrolling levels and the ability to change bullet types on the fly depending on what you pick up, although Habroxia also features vertical scrolling sections of levels. The main campaign contains 15 stages playable on normal or hard mode with an online leaderboard and a persistent upgrade system. Each 5 stages you beat unlocks a mini-mode playable outside the campaign. I managed to beat all 15 levels on my first run through on normal with I think only one continue (tip: the spread bullets are by far the best which you can use by holding LT+RT). Great retro graphics and music. A winner if you like old school shooters. 9/10
