A Space Shooter for Two Bucks Review (PS Mini)



Posted by Christophor Rick (TheSuperGuido), 4 days ago

Frima works hard if you look at the number of games they put out recently. That doesn’t mean the games are lacking in quality it means they’re extremely diligent. A Space Shooter for Two Bucks sees Frima taking on another genre, this time it’s the shmup.

A Space Shooter for 2 bucks

The game features everything one might expect to see in a standard vertically scrolling shooter: hordes of alien ships, loads of bullets to dodge, power upgrades and expansions, collectible currency and a shop where you can buy more permanent ship upgrades.

The game offers two mode, campaign and survival. Via the campaign mode you acquire new super weapons. In order to upgrade your ship so that you can continually progress through the campaign you’ll need to use survival mode which lets you rack up some currency for permanent upgrades. It’s a good little system that lets you continue to progress through the game without having to repeat the same level over and over.

There’s enough to keep you entertained and coming back every so often for some shmup action.

Good on the PSP, blocky on the PS3, but it’s a PS Mini, it’s to be expected.

Lots of voice work and music along with standard sound effects. Overall it works well together.

Shmup it up! It’s fast and furious wave-based gameplay with upgradeable ship and power buffs as well as special weapons. A good mix of gameplay.
