For those who think Story+ is too hard, the trick is to avoid the powerups and let them accumulate until things get really tight. You only need to reach the boss, not beat him, if you reach him you'll have the option to "Retry Boss"
Reviews for "From The Black"
Augh! My hitbox... it hurts so much...
Going through the story I felt a bit like I was only winning due to my superpowered ship, felt a bit of a lack of skill requirement... and then the shrapnel and secret modes happened, and I have nothing to blame for my rage other than my inability to not fly into deadly things. ;_;
Very well made. Nice visuals and great gameplay. Music's not bad either.
All the stars from me.
People are unusually harsh with a 48 hour shooter. I found it nailed all the essentials, lots to shoot and I never lost control of the spaceship from lag, ever. IMO one of the smoothest shooter games I've played. I already figured out a lot of the secret stuff before I heard anything, the story already made me wanna try and get through without killing anything. Can't wait to see what that holds in store for me.
Very well done indeed. Though the method of acquiring the wormhole cannon could be tweaked to be a little less counterintuitive, a very enjoyable game.
Nice story.
