    Project X: Light Years serves as both a homage and a lesson in how to breathe new life into classic shooters. It respectfully builds on its Amiga heritage, revises what needed fixing, while preserving the key play systems that made it iconic.

    More than a remake, Project-X Light Years is the modern sequel to a great classic that made history and, in addition to being one of the best 'reboots' ever seen for IPs of the past, it is also one of the best side-scrolling shmups released in recent months, competing with Yuzo Koshiro's Earthion for my very own award for the most interesting of the season. Proof, if there was still any need, that we Westerners are also very capable of making excellent games of the genre, even if we don't speak Japanese.
