Space Raiders in Space

-POST EARLY-ACCESS UPDATE-

Space Raiders in Space is finally out of early access and now has a dedicated story campaign to round out its gameplay modes. It remains a squad-based wave defense game with minor base and resource management aspects in all modes, so the main question at this point is whether the nine-ish chapter story campaign lives up to the promise of the formula? I’d say yes, which is likely apparent given that I’m still recommending the game. The cutscene narration and images are comicy, but then it’s a comic-based game in the first place, and so adds to the feeling of authenticity. It would have been nice to have additional choice elements in the story or perhaps a branching narrative, but this is Nick and Loren’s first time out as such and so I’m not going hold them to a higher standard than needed. As of this writing Cyberpunk 2077 just dropped so nobody’s going to be reading this review or really playing much else for at least a week, but when everyone gets back from Night City, they might enjoy the comic action of Space Raiders in Space to help wash off all the grittiness.

Space Raiders in Space! is an endearingly witty and charming affair from the very moment the game loads. From the snarky dev logos to the campy, over the top and gritty sci fi, this game oozes with personality. It features an unusual take on the first encounter with aliens, subverting many of the standard tropes while simultaneously roping many of those same tropes back in to serve a sinister narrative that overlays a unique style of tower defense game fused with auto battler. The game loop of gather resources, construct defenses, and fight off enemies is compelling, while the comic book motif and random chatter among the survivors remains engaging throughout.

The graphics are very simple and the guitar music is pleasant.

The puzzles surprised me, they are really interesting and smart. I liked this game.

The option to download the music is welcome, the on-screen menu is intuitive, clean and works well.

The level selection is very good.

Extreme simplicity in everything, but it fulfills what is proposed.
