Sky Racket Reviews

A simple, but effective co-op, bullet hell, pong game. Plenty of challenges, and its unique gameplay keeps it feeling fresh. Highly recommended, especially if you've got someone to play it with.

A fun and challenging game at the same time. The mix of genres, certainly is add to the mechanics, even if it feels a bit repetitive, the patterns of the enemy attacks and power ups are enough to keep you interested. I must confess I am not a huge fan of these kind of games, and certainly my skill is more than lacking, but for what it is I did have a BLAST playing this game. My daughter was laughing all the time watching me play, and when she wanted to enter the game it was even more fun. Pros: + Simple enough mechanics and controls. + The graphics design, style and ambiance are rather nice, even with its 8-bit-esque look. + Fast paced gameplay serves to keep concentrated. + I really enjoyed the music. Personally additional pluses from me: + Falwless Linux support from the get go, 0 issues whatosever. Runs beautifully, and it keeps the point of games: Being fun to play and watch. + Amazing support for Steam input, especially steam controller rumble emulation support. Cons: - A tad repetitive gameplay, but these kinds of game are supposed to be that way. I'm sure others may find more cons for this, but personally I did have a blast playing it (even for a short while), it IS challenging (especially if you are not much skilled), it is quite fun to play MP and watch each other reach for the ball and scream for dodging... quite fun indeed!!

Pros: Good graphics good music fun mix of shoot 'em ups and breaker games The arcade mode is pretty fun to just sit down and play On gamejolt if you prefer it there this game will provide some good challenge Cons: Kind of short; only took me 10 hours to beat the main game The challenges can get really annoying at times Short story: I played the original demo on gamejolt, and had a good time, and when I bought this game on steam, I was pleasantly surprised to see my old demo save file on there.

Nice game with the core gameplay figured out and carefully implemented! Just like the intro, the aesthetics are very nice and the music is great. Co-Op is there for those who want to have a game to finish with a friend, and the length of the game is right for a one-nighter. Most of the bosses are pretty cool and have a decent challenge, I really had to think about how to deal with new patterns on the fly. Completing this game will be quite a bit of work, since it requires specific challenges to be met on every level. If the main story leaves you wanting more, definitely try to finish the whole thing- Even if you don't, it's a good time.

Nice pixelart and interesting gameplay in theory. However, you'll find that the levels become repetitive really fast and that no amount of strategy will help you beat certain bosses faster. Not to mention that every achievement is broken and devs have seemingly abandoned the game.

cute game! half shump, half arkanoid. you play as one of 2 little kids (they play the same but you can still swap them on the level select screen) with 3 hearts and a tennis racket that can smack most round objects plus some enemies/small critters. there are also side kicks that will give you a special power and a extra hit when they are up. my only issues are that your a tad to slow (yes i know there's a roll) and your sprite is a bit to big.

A very fun, unique shmup with cute graphics, wacky lore, and tough Arcade Mode to top it off. Great for beginners and veterans of the genre alike!

Let me paint you a picture. It is fall of 1994 and I am 14. I just got home from school, it's already getting kind of dark, and there's a cardboard box containing a brand new Sega Genesis game waiting on the porch. I'm from a small town, there isn't really a great place to buy games so I usually order new releases, when I can afford them, by mail order, like from the guys in the back of EGM or Gamefan.. it's kind of expensive, but I hadn't figured out I could order games online yet (heck, I didn't have internet at home then anyway). I pop in that game and have a Formative Experience--the kind of game that shapes me as a gamer and sticks with me for the rest of my life, the same way pop music from your teen years sticks with you and you never quite get over it. There are retro-inspired indie games, and then there are much rarer retro-inspired indie games that channel that kind of feeling, and this one is the latter. The feel of this game is spot on, I can absolutely tell it was made by people who truly love games of that era. And it's not like anything I've ever played before, either! Despite being a kind of new experience, it throws new mechanics at you at a surprising rate (still in a forgiving way), despite being a "throwback" there's a huge sense of freshness, like a fresh of breath air for us older gamers. I really, really recommend giving it a go. (And hey, there's a demo!)

Flippin' Awesome! It is a breakout game It is a bit of a shoot'em up It is crazy! Also great pixel art. So if you enjoy a bit of a challenge, and like some retro visuals, this is a pretty good and innovative game to try out.

An amazing game! Full of colors and perfect controls. It just feels great to hit the ball and everything over and over again maxing out combo and trying to overcome the challenges. It's not an easy game, the dificulty is just about right, and you have extra challenges if you want to master the game. I really recommend it!
