    If you were already a fan of the original game, then the new goodies in Alien Space Retro are certainly worth checking out.

    Alien Space Retro's strength comes not just from its aesthetically-pleasing vector graphics, but also its gameplay, which is at times deeper than other dual-stick shooters.

    An oxymoronic retro update of Alien Space, this is a visually appealing and engaging twin stick shooter that is unfortunately too similar to its predecessor to be considered a true great.
