Finally, a retro style shooter worthy of my childhood! – Retro Assault Challenge Review

I grew up on old classic arcade games, and this one just pulls at my heart strings. It has all the elements of an old school classic from the arcade infused with a modern nu-skool sheen. Sharp and kenetic, the controls are really tight for this kind of game on a touch device, I was really impressed with how solid the response was, very geometry wars-ish. Graphics are really well rendered, and the ship designs were very cool and inspired. The mission is very accessible in the opening waves, letting you get a grasp of the controls, but it ramps up quickly into intense firefights with swarms of fighters, support ships and giant battle cruisers hurling an insane amount of firepower. A lot of nods to games I love in here. Though this is a challenge mission, or demonstration, if this is a taste of what's to come, I think this game is a good one to watch for. Looking forward to full game!
