    There is no real value in this title because of the control, gameplay and difficulty issues. If a patch was released with a control upgrade for the classic controller and to fix other issues, I would say the game would be worth buying but not at the moment.

    Protöthea's music is the worst offender, though -- its muffled tunelessness recalls the early days of hack composers attempting to extract vaguely music-like noise from the Super NES's default sound libraries. Expect lots of muddy bass and cheesy synth guitars.
  3. Metro GameCentral

    Impossibly slow 2D shooter whose only worth is to prove what artistry goes into its betters.

    Treacle-slow gameplay and, unless you love generic sci-fi future visions, very little incentive to soldier on. [Sept 2008, p.67]
