+ Detailed dynamic environments (the trees sway back and fourth along with their shadows, the water moves and cast reflections)
+ A lot of great modern mechanics for a shooter, you can turn to shoot from multiple angles, move around, drop bombs, shield, missiles, nuke, lasers, etc.
+ A variety of surprisingly well balanced power ups, some are limited, others improve your base wepaons, while other imrpove your score/multiplier
+ Quite a lot of content, I believe there's 25 levels total with 5 unique environments
+ The difficulty seems great to me, it does get harder the further you go but I really enjoyed that you are more focused on racking up a high score rather than being too worried about your health
+ Steam Leaderboards adds to replayability
+ Unique enemy formations and units throughout each level which keeps the game from getting repetitive
+ Sort of a classic arcade feel, I really enjoyed playing this game
- The bosses are a bit too easy to defeat
~ It would have been nice if there was an upgrade system in place to get better weapons / ships, it is a bit disappointing to lose your weapons after each stage.
