Reviews for Redshift

Alright

Alright, I love space shooter genre games like this, but I wasn't so pleased with this one. My first problem was that it seems to have gone the same route as Borderlands and just threw so many different items at you that early in the game I felt overwhelmed and never bothered to even look and recycle my items anymore because recycling would just give me the same old junk to be recycled again and there really wasn't a need for anything other than a reflective shield and double rocket launcher, both of which I got very early in the game. the controls and graphics were very nice but I think you could have done something more interesting with enemy lineup because the reflection shield made quick work of the fast shooting enemies (which I assume are supposed to be hard) and the long lines of spike-ships weren't difficult, just time consuming.

So, 7 for effort.

Excellent Game

Bug report...after I unequipped my shield, I was able to spam the emp, which killed all enemies instantly, but by doing this, I made the boss invincible.

Very fun

Great game, the only issue I had was how many shields and weapons you get when almost all of them are duplicates. But I suppose it made getting good items harder.

it inst bad...

but I just have to say redshift doesnt even get near the epicness of blueshift's gameplay (faster and more challenging), Im actually surprised redshift is your "next step" true the graphics and style are more polished this time around I give you that. but the new equipping weapon screen and the recycling feature just don't feel all that necessary.
the old blueshift system to equip weapons was ok, though I did wish there was a way to lock your equipped weapons so you dont change them accidentally when touching another floating weapon , we have enough stuff to dodge with the enemies and their fire.

I do think you can do better.

good game

i had a lot of fun with this... went through the entire game in one sitting. beat it at level 32. once i got the quad grenade launcher it was over.. i didn't need any other weapon... seriously. that weapon obliterated everything. it made the game pretty easy.

i think instead of having tons of random weapon pickups and them having different stats i think there should've been an upgrade system using money or something. so i would be able to buy a grenade launcher and upgrade it to a double, triple, and quad grenade launcher over time. i found that quad grenade launcher around level 10 and used it all the way until i beat the game at level 32. so an upgrade system would've made the game more challenging.

maybe be able to equip a secondary weapon would be cool. or maybe switch from primary to secondary with a button press to give the game a little bit less repetition would be nice. or maybe as a tactic to have to use a different weapon against certain enemies.

still the game is good and i enjoyed it.
