    Super Space Serpent SE is a really addictive retro style arcade game, in which we take the controls of a small ship and try by all means to survive for a minute to a stage full of enemies.

I'm a massive fan of twin-stick shooters as it's a genre that usually challenges and reminds me of those nostalgic moments as a child. Starting my gaming career at pong, you can imagine how many twin sticks I’ve played over the years so I did have a great deal of interest in Super Space Serpent: Secondary Edition. The good news? It's actually quite a decent game and the retro vibes that are present remind me of geometry wars which is a good thing indeed. The game is all about defeating enemies in waves and to help you progress you get a decent amount of weapons and upgrades which are picked up at random by a drop that scales 1-6 and the power up or distraction is variable. The game features a retro neon art style and sound design you’ll find it difficult to spot some of your enemies which I feel is intentional in the earlier levels the pink enemies can disappear into the background but they aren't much of a problem if you're good with these types of games. The shooting elements are strong but only offers 45 levels, which I spoke to the developer in regards to, and he is looking into the inclusion of an endless mode in the future. Fans of these this genre will definitely find something in Super Space Serpent: Secondary Edition, because it gets the most important aspects correct, even though Super Space Serpent: Secondary Edition has a few minor imperfections it still makes for a must buy in this most legendary genre of twin-stick shooters.… Full Review »
