Starfighter Renegade Review

HIGH Cool old-school space shooter aesthetic with Defender vibes.

LOW Insta-kills from swarming enemies. Frequent crashes, bugs, and lock-ups

WTF  How do the scout ships not shake themselves apart when they swerve like that?


Student Project: The Odyssey

Here at GameCritics we review all sorts of games. First-person shooters, turn-based strategy, sexy dating sims and more… but one type of title we don’t often cover are student games!
Today we’re making an exception.


Windjammers 2 Review

A Mighty Wind

HIGH Coming back from twelve points down to win a set.

LOW Losing eight straight sets in a row during the championship round.

WTF How is it fair to have a teleporting trick shot in official competitions!?


This Is Not A Review: Gravitators

Sadly I’m unable to ethically review Gravitators. I started playing a year ago when it was in beta. I put in more than fifty hours of testing and offered notes copious enough that I wound up with a special thanks in the credits. It’s too bad this can’t be a review, though, because it would be an absurdly positive one.


Steel Assault Review

Not Enough To Stay Hooked

HIGH Tough, but do-able boss fights.

LOW The grappling hook can’t be used for attacking.

WTF Seriously, why can’t the grappling hook harm enemies!?
