    Alright, so. This game isn't perfect, far from it. When I compare it with other Vita games, it's a little bit ugly. The character modelization, especially. That being said, characters aren't exactly the point, here, are there?

    No, the point is to have a space combat game on the Vita. And on that point, Starlight Inception delivers. I get to take my fighter out in space, battle other fighters in space, win some XP and use it to buy a better craft. And, since I didn't really want anything else out of this game, I'm quite happy with it.

    Sure, the horizon line is awfully close. Sure, the physics in an atmosphere seem to be same as in space, and that's a glaring violation of the laws of physics. That's why it doesn't get a ten.

    Escape Hatch Entertainment's game is quite a proof of what the studio will be able to do in the future, but it isn't that kind of all-round game that will make them well known enough to make the purchase of the game recommendable. Once there is a special offer it would be something to think about.

    If they keep working on it and patching some of the bigger problems, I can see Starlight Inception becoming a genuinely good game. If they don't, though..well, then you'll probably want to go away from it at warp speed.

    Starlight Inception aims for the stars, but thanks to a barrage of issues, never really makes it past lift-off.
