Solar Struggle Reviews

So disappointing. At least I only lost 5.95 I miss you 5.95

Haven’t played it, but got it very cheap with the coupons you get when you level up. Just used it long enough to get the card drops.

A Great childhood game of mine,glad that i'm able to play it again :D

Solar Struggle is not a bad game. It's just not a very good game. So if you can play something else, do that. On the other hand, if you need cheap (in sale under one euro) game, with nice enough graphics (it's not much, but it's not hideous), hilariously bad voice acting, really dull uninspired game play, you can certainly give it a shot. Oh! I forgot! I couldn't change controls. And I couldn't finish third mission, because my ship couldn't leave a space near an asteroid or something.

Well acctualy this is a space shooter. So you shoot things.. in space but.... I did a fews mission, and unpleasant things bumped into my head... you are some guy that fly around the solar system planet.. and all of thems have an asteroid belt around it.... - Graphics. They are nice, because space is awesome.. that's the strong point of the game, and acctualy graphics doesn't do everything - Gameplay Its just correct.. and by correct i really mean "only correct" You won't have anytroubles with the control in the game, they will come instantely - music / sound Well... the music let's say.. i only did fews mission and.. i droped because of this, this soundtrack is.... i'm not going to say. bad that's wrong... no wait... its bad.. The same song for like 3-4 mission.... and the song is reptitive as hell.. Hope this game have more than 1 mission music.. More than that it doesn't fit at all with this type of game.. Voice well, turn it off... seriously.. turn the voice off ! As for the sound effect. pew pew pew. - Overall I'm not going to thumbs up this game because its just a game that everyone will forgot in 2 days. I'm not going to thumbs down either because its not that bad .. there's no horizontal tumbs..... and the price is very decent. But this game have something wrong ... generaly shooters (ex gradius , thunderforce ect) are repetitive.. but in a good way. this game seem repetitive in the bad way..

From the screenshots, I was expecting some nice arcadey space-shooter goodness. My hope was basically for a Star Fox knockoff with better graphics. Unfortunately, what I got was a janky, poorly voice acted mess that runs far worse than a game of this grapical fidelity should. The entire game is played on a flat plane. There is no 3-d movement or action. Ships turn very quickly. So quickly it's difficult to do fine maneuvers. Generally, this means that a dogfight consists of either a series of head-on passess, or flying behind a wiggling enemy fighter. It's incredibly hard to see where your shots are going. There's no sort of lead indicator, and your "Crosshairs" are basically useless. Your bullets are your best indicator, and even then, it's mostly "This is the general flightpath of the enemy ship, maybe he'll run into enough of them to die." I found one of the most effictive dogfighting techniques to be to sit still, and just point your gun at the incoming enemy fighters, as that's the only time they really flight striaght. The campaign missions are frequently interrupted with poorly written cutscenes which basically consist of your ship hovering near other guy's ship. Then you skip them, and you're thrown against a timed wave of infinite enemy fighters. The voice acting comes in here, as the only things more repetitive than the sound of your guns constantly firing (there's barely any reason not to), and the music, are the death cries of enemy pilots. The frequent "Arghs!" and "Oh No!"s are delivered with the drama and gravitas of realizing you put slightly too much creamer in your coffee. I was hoping the arrival of capital ships on the playing field would make things more interesting. Unfortunately, rather than doing things like take out individual guns, or subsystems like engines, they're just another life & shield bar. Actually, the ones I fought were easier than the fighters, because they're so much larger and easier to hit. Finally, the options menus are limited. If you're in a mission they're limited to "Quit" or "Don't quit". Anything you change results in the game restarting. You can use a controller, but you get even less fine control. Sometimes the turn keys just plain didn't work, or your acceleration will get stuck on. I didn't have high hopes for this game, yet it still managed to dash them. For that, bravo.
