    The only flaws I see in this game is that you can figure out AI patterns and there’s no online multiplayer. [07/2015, p.57]

You play as a rocket whose mission is to shoot down your opponents, who also happen to be rockets (can you see where they got the name?). The keyboard controls are a little difficult at first, but once you get past that the game is a great time. This game is perfect to play with 4 people and runs fairly well on lower end PCs. If you're looking for a multiplayer game to pass some time, or start some rivalries, this is your game. Expand

    I picked this indie game up about a year ago and it is still fun to play. The game will run at 25-30 FPS even on a mac with a core 2 duoI picked this indie game up about a year ago and it is still fun to play. The game will run at 25-30 FPS even on a mac with a core 2 duo processor. The graphics are great and the music is phenomenal. I had problems with my game at one point, so I contacted the developer and he responded within a day with instruction on how to fix it. My one gripe with this game is that while the controller is a fantastic method of playing, the keyboard controls are annoying and hard to get used to. The combat system is ingenious, with the ability to fire very explosive missiles (that can also damage you, so be careful), lighter rockets, and bombs to catch the enemy chasing you. The AI is very hard to beat, and if you can handle it you can add up to two after that one, or plug in another controller and battle your friend or brother. This double player experience did make my frame rate tank, so a really beefy computer would be a nice consideration. If I could add anything to this game, it would be a better indicator throughout the game of which rocket you are.
    Recap:
    Great indie game for a great price with intriguing mechanics, impeccable detail and a few minor keyboard control issues (use a controller if you have one). This is why my rating is 9/10

The game also has a groovy soundtrack that mimics the likes of Daft Punk and it's definitely one of the game's strengths. The only issue I have with the game is its longevity since the game has in reality only one game mode you'd be willing to play and despite allowing you to play it single player, I think this is a game better suited for multiplayer.
