    Shooting Stars! is a simple and basic shoot'em up, with a funny premise: you've got to shoot brainwashed celebrities instead of ugly aliens. Aside that, it's a Space Invaders wannabe, nothing more, nothing less. And it becomes tedious after a few hours.

    This may not be the best game you’ve ever played, but Shooting Stars is one that passes the time with colourful and humorous animations, and is a fairly enjoyable experience overall.

    If you can ignore the nonsensical story and execution, Shooting Stars is a decent arcade shooter.

    If you're looking for a quick game to blast away five minutes you could do a lot worse than Shooting Stars!

    It's entertaining, at times, but its contents are way too thin to last.

    Shooting Stars can provide some thrills due to its solid bullet-hell focused gameplay systems. The mechanics are tight and the special pick-ups diversify the combat a bit. But at the end of the day, its comedy feels more painful than enjoyable. The fact that it is thrown your way constantly only makes it more unenjoyable. It simply feels forced.

    It’s just not funny, original, or adrenaline-fueled as it needs to be to stand out among a crowded indie pack.

    Overall a nice and funny gameplay, funny characters from the pop culture. Btw, I'd love to shoot some stars in Justin Bieber.
