+1 for lovers in a dangerous space time. Cute graphics, and definitely solid game play.
My friend and I used to play it a lot, but we were hilariously bad at it.
We would end up bickering at each other over mistakes and sometimes self sabotaging the ship out of frustration. All in good fun though, we had so many good laughs over dying in stupid ways.
Definitely need at least 1 friend to play though. Single player gives you a little CPU dog that you command around, but it's not nearly as fun.
It's even more insane and hilarious with 4 people trying to coordinate things. I personally found the best way is to assign everyone a station based on their preference/skills e.g. one friend loves playing with shields, so they are always in charge. Then find out who can steer the best and give them that as permanent role... granted it can be slightly less fun than the chaos, but I find utter chaos eventually gets old after you've died 100 times on the same level because everyone's running around trying to control everything.
That being said I would love a more grown-up version of this with more than two players.
