[h1]Don't be deceived by the trailer, this game is bad.[/h1] The controller support practically zero, the menus although simple are clumsy, the airship moves like a slug, the hit boxes are messy... I can go on for a while, but I have to ask for refund ( the only positive aspect for me was the price, and I prefer the money) There are lots of better shumups out there, from the japanese meka style ones to jets'n guns, you can grab anything in between you'll be more pleased.

This is considerably more fun than it has any right to be. Feels like a homage to the Bitmap Brothers: sweet graphics, cool music, loads of power ups and a brutal difficulty level. This is my idea of what a retro game should be. Really enjoyed what I've seen so far, though I've yet to catch a even a glimpse of the level three boss, despite a couple of dozen plays.

Low rez, limited options, shallow. What's there to love? I've played through and completed Xenon 2 and that's what caused me to buy this game; it's unashamedly a Xenon 2 clone albeit nearly thirty years too late. I'm OK with it. Xenon 2 isn't remembered for so long because it was crap. Andromeda Wing has that one-more-go factor happening and some nicely rendered sprites. For five bucks, a very welcome trip down memory lane.Dev continues to update as well. I'm running the game with reshade to add some scanline and raster effects and it looks great.

XENON 3 in everything but name and therewith an nnmitigated fun factor experienced way beyond the price point of this game. Grab it on sale or at full price - worth every penny. This games reeks of the love poured into it with a generous seasoning of old school. Smooth, polished, not overly complicated controls and just get stuck right in and that was exactly what we did in the late '80's with most 16 Bit classics. This is Xenon 2 reimagined, a blast from the past brought right up to date but still old school enough to bring a smile to your face when you play it over and over. A really good shoot 'em up worthy of an 8/10. Conclusion: a love letter to the Amiga's golden years and it's a MEGABLAST!

There are issues with the game such as full screen being that it just means you have a tiny window to play in. Windows mode allows for a much larger viewing area. This game is quite old school arcade (for those of you that remember the old quarter eaters) in many ways including the one thing I really disliked which is that some of the bosses are WAY over powered. Specifically the ones that just slam into you as you don't have any hope to move fast enough to get out of the way. You can be at full life and shield and within ½ a second of being rammed, your done.

Basically i bought this because i saw it and it was clearly Xenon 2, even almost exact copies of the enemies. Nonetheless it's pretty ok on its own and it's always nice to take a walk back on memory lane and enjoy the experience. There are some things that could use some work, like being able to have resolutions (steam overlay isn't really usable), the power ups and things like speed seem to be gone when you change level, the hit box and dmg are not very intuitive... sometimes it seems you can't avoid some dmg and in that sense, some bosses are weird to fight
