The value story

Across all 73 discounts in the 7 years tracked, the median cut is 60 percent, about 5 weeks apart. Today's $2.99 at 80 percent off matches the lowest price in the record.

It is pricier than 64 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 77 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Tower Tactics: Liberation ($4.41, scores 57) and Deep Sky Derelicts ($2.99, scores 35) both outscore it.

Clearly, love was put into the game and it's a shame the potential doesn't quite seem fully realised in my opinion. There appears to be very little variety in each run, the number of...

I really enjoy this game, so much so that I am planning on getting the DLC on day one. I usually do not buy DLC. I feel like some strategies are easier than others, and that might be the source of some of the gripes. I have found one that I really enjoy with the blackhole ship and shields.
