    A rare coop gem. Get this game to play with a friend, and ignore that you can play it alone. The mechanics of LiaDS are quite delightful. You and a friend are inside of a ship together, and you must control it's weapons, shield, and engine between the two of you.

    Each part of your ship can be powered up by gems that you collect, and the results are surprising. Each new “Campaign” (a series of 5 levels) introduces a new environmental mechanic, all of which were creative and fun. I don't want to spoil any of that.

    The gameplay itself can get pretty tough, and you and your teammate will end up creating little strategies in order to overcome them. You'll panic together, you'll sigh as you fail your first mission together, and you'll also feel the satisfaction of winning together.

    Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime found that perfect line of how much time and trial my friend and I could bear and nailed it. Highly recommended.    … Expand

    An incredible co-op experience chock full of quick-thinking strategy and wildly imaginative environments in the vein of the Pixeljunk series, namely pixeljunk shooter. Fluid learning curve which ramps up as you gain abilities and stretches your capacity for reacting to rapidly changing threats. It's been a blast to play with both my nine year old son and a friend my age(30's).

    Unique and wonderful couch coop experience. Great family game, totally safe for kids. Unlike many other coop games, Lovers is designed in a way that communication with others is a must. Overall this game is very fun, highly recommended.

    Just interesting in single player but exhilarating and crazy in multiplayer, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime surely is worth the download. Be prepared to shoot down tons of aliens and to save a lot of little guys (mostly rabbits), because love has to win and your customized-and-upgraded ship is the only hope left.

    It's hard to be cross with any game that has you rescuing space rabbits. [Apr 2016, p.94]

    This space adventure with a surprising amount of fresh ideas puts a fresh twist on arcade action.
