Even when dying, I felt compelled to come back time after time in order to make it just one stage further… until I couldn’t progress anymore. There are difficulty options, yet even easy is punishingly brutal. Whilst the developer may end up tweaking the game to address these issues down the line, it seems unlikely considering it has been out on Steam for a while. Nevertheless, I’m still happy I played it and I’m very much looking forward to a potential sequel."

    But whatever promise lies in those ideas is lost in the game’s fundamental flaws. Remote Life isn’t short on ambition, but without the precision, reliable hit detection, and sense of control that are so integral to a shoot-’em-up, actually playing it is a bigger nightmare than any of those extraterrestrial monsters.

    Remote Life is a odd shooter, and I imagine its quirks are going to push away as many players as they attract. A high level of difficulty is par for the course with this genre, but the deaths in this game are sometimes really cheap because it’s so hard to see what can kill you. The lack of a scoring system also deeply hurts the replay value of Remote Life, and given that you can find an absolute king’s riches of endlessly replayable shoot-em-ups on the Switch at or around a similar price, that’s a big strike against it. A looker to be sure, and it evokes those R-Type vibes quite nicely, but it’s hard to recommend Remote Life with much vigor.
