    A fine twin-stick shooter that's just a few minor tweaks away from something really special - though score-chasers up for a stern challenge may well adore its charms. [Feb 2015, p.95]

    Generous and hypnotic, Geometry Wars takes on a new dimension with superb graphics, 3D levels and new multiplayer modes. Too bad, however, that the Adventure mode is so difficult and that the quality of the soundtrack is not as good as we hoped.

Controls,There is nothing revolutionary here with the mechanics but it happens to be the best twin stick shooter I have ever played. Controls, gameplay and graphics are all excellent. Mixes things up a lot in adventure mode and really keeps you wanted to progress. Only knock would be that it could use more music tracks as after hours of playing you really don't want to hear the songs anymore. Full Review »

I already gave this game a ten because it has great graphics, incredible gameplay and a banging soundtrack and superb effects to boot. They have given us twice the game, now, for free. New modes, eight new enemies, more challenge, a different art style in hard mode, an extra drone and special. Incredible that we get all of this for free and it works as if it had been there all along.
    If there is one developer to support, surely one that gives so much, deserves our support?
