    Not so fun, games like Resogun already placed new standarts for genre.

    Also: my eyes!

    At least give it a try on two players mode, it's more fun to play it with a friend.

    Pros: super fun, addictive, nice control, nice graphics, direct, re-playable, catchy music.

    Contras: maybe too short.

    Definetely a good game that you should try!

    Game is not as good as (resogun, and other shooting type of games) it is just based in a small arena and it is a stick shift shoot. It is semi difficult, but not a very long game.

    Unfortunately it is no replacement for Robotron. It doesn't have 1/10th the gameplay. I guess it's an okay game, but I have no interest because it's just flashy and shallow instead of the sublime complexity and difficulty of Robotron

    For example, you can play past the first boss while half-asleep and without having to pay close attention to the screen. Just "going through the motions".

    And no complex maneuvering required. Which I suppose is good since the play area is so small and cramped and all the sprites so large    … Expand

    Ultratron is a worse version of Resogun. The player is set in a small arena and is expected to survive waves of enemies coming. You simply have to avoid the enemies and shoot them before they can get to you. You can get different upgrades to make the playthrough easier as well. Overall, the game is just okay in my opinion. The weird techno music is pretty good though!

    Tolles Spiel. Vom Gefühl her Resogun sehr ähnlich. Es gibt 50 Levels. Bei jedem 10em wird gespeichert. Es gibt eine Menge Upgrades, so kann man etwas taktieren. Steuerung ist toll!

    Absolutely fantastic old-school blast-up which fans of Robotron 2084 will love! Buttery smooth feel, fabulous visuals, and what tops it off for me is the sound and music which are absolutely superb and really absorbing. So much to enjoy in the game, it oozes class and I cannot believe I've just downloaded it in a sale for £0.79! Great job, so much fun and such a tribute to classic gamingAbsolutely fantastic old-school blast-up which fans of Robotron 2084 will love!

    Ultratron isn’t anything that will blow your mind, but it does work for those wanting to achieve high scores and chase leaderboards with the community. It only offers one mode, but there is enough variety in the weapons and upgrades that should keep players intrigued for a while. The addition of Cross-Save support doesn’t hurt either.

    Ultratron is a good arcade game with the simple goal of surviving as long as possible in order to avenge the human race and earn a good score to brag about while doing it. While it might not do anything we haven't seen before, it is a fun time for those that love the retro style.

    It does that single screen shooting very well. I would have liked some variation in the level design, and the graphics can get rather muddled at some points, but overall it’s a polished little package.
