Maybe I’m missing something, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to control where your ships go. You can designate your next target, but otherwise your ships go wherever they want, which is never where you actually want them. There’s no way to tell how many ships you or the enemy have, other than “that’s a lot of blips.”

Pretty fun and simple little RTS. Controls are very intuitive and easy to use. It's not too complex, and after the first couple of levels you'll pretty much have the hang of it. That said, it can get quite challenging when you've got 2 or even 3 enemies all working against you in the same "map". Personally, I think the $15 price tag is a little steep, but I'd definitely recommend it. Out of the 4 games I've played from this developer (the 4 from the VR strategy bundle, all of which have a very similar look and feel to them), this is by far my favorite and if you were only going to get 1 of them I'd highly recommend you go with this one.

Pretty fun game concept, not too hard, not too easy. The campaign is really just a tutorial and ends after about 2 hours which you can keep going if you want. All in all it's an interesting concept

A short, but fun campaign. While this game doesn't take advantage of VR as much as you might wish, it is still a solid, cute, and quick game worth a whirl.

The next generation game for fans of Eufloria. While more abstract, gameplay consists of missions resembling Homeworld's tactical map. A true, addictive crack gem. 4X whittled to the bone. A virtuoso use of VR.
