Wonder if there is much of an option to change things

The fact you've got ccontinous motion of inertia, thrust, reverse thrust/brake, direction and firing on four separate controls makes it hard.

Wonder if direction and thrust mapped both to left stick would have altered the game too much? Or even made it a twin stick system as the right stick isn't really utilized.

 

[the_don_patch]

Man I died twice in season 1 already -__- game is fun but definitely challenging

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Ah, okay. That I can deal with. But controls that don't respond well tend to get on my nerves.

They respond, and very well. Ship mode is Asteroids.

Frame rate gets annihilated during massive explosions. And I usually don't complain about frame drops

I like the rpg elements

Pre or post patch?

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

I love surviving a massive firefight with hammerheads and scouts by "running and gunning"

 

[robotrock]

The framerate is bumming me out

 

[Seanze01]

Someone please tell me that I read it wrong when the game said I can only save after I complete a season. Does this mean the game doesn't save after every mission/episode? Only after the season is done? Doesn't seem right to me.

Loving everything about this game, but still in the prolog episodes.

 

[Bleep]

Oh wow, the day 1 patch is the same size as the full game. Kinda makes having a preload option seem silly.

It's a rogue-lite game. You progress through an entire season to make it to the next, if you die in one of the episodes you go back to episode 1 of that season.

You do get coins though that you can use to buy items at the shop that you can save if you die.

 

[Toki767]

Game runs really well, but damn died on the 4th episode of a season and didn't know you lost like everything except blueprints.

It is a rogue-like so yeah, if you die you lose all your upgrades and have to re-buy.

You save between missions. It says so in the tutorial message.

It saves in between missions when you're on the ship, but if you quit mid-mission you lose your progress and if you die, you go back to the beginning of the current season.

 

[jkooXL]

Anyone having frame-rate issues please be sure you are playing the patched version. Hit the options button while the Galak-Z tile is highlit on the PS4 dashboard and update the game!

Thank you! That makes more sense.

 

[Tunavi]

Game is pretty good. It's like a mix of spelunky and dark souls

 

[Jashobeam]

just finished the turorial and watched the mission breifing for prologue 1 and there was a glitch with the audio cutting off short during some lines. Any one else experience this?

 

[YianGaruga]

...it's really not..

 

[Tunavi]

...it's really not..

Hahah the levels are random like spelunky as are the power ups
When you die you lose everything

Whatever

 

[distantmantra]

I want to love this, but I'm terrible at it.

 

[MattyG]

Same. It's going to take a lot of practice and getting my ass handed to me by Imperials to git gud.

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Is pretty good as a shooter spelunky. But is more Rogue Legacy (some permanent upgrades) than Dark Souls.

 

[distantmantra]

Same. It's going to take a lot of practice and getting my ass handed to me by Imperials to git gud.

Every single death for me has been due to getting swarmed by two bugs and then the spider thing comes out and nabs me. And I panic and normally back right into it.

 

[sagat2036]

Killing that sentinel was easy when lava does no damage to your ship.

Seems TurboCharged 1st upgrade to max.

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

Shame there's no plat for this. Only 11 trophies.

This is a known issue, it appears to be correlated with users with very full or fragmented hard drives. Deleting unnecessary content usually cleans it up. We are working on it for our first patch, coming soon.

 

[CarbonFire]

Made it to Season 2, took a little getting used to the controls, especially coming straight off playing Rocket League.

Still haven't gotten used to the slide mechanic, but for the most part I've been able to do well without using it too much. I'm sure in later levels it will become crucial for success. Juke move is great though, already abused it a whole bunch.

So far the game is very fun, and pretty much exactly what I was hoping for. Can't wait to get further in and die in many exciting and horrible ways!

 

[antitrop]

Finished Season 1, really enjoying the game a lot. The controls were immediately intuitive for me and I finished the first season my second try, after dying on 1-3 the first time.

Even the characters are starting to grow on me a bit, after finding them initially annoying. In any case, they still talk a bit too much.

 

[Tunavi]

The power ups are awesome

 

[Boogalogist]

For those that played Subspace/Continuum before, is this game similar in control to that?

 

[orthodoxy1095]

Has anyone checked, does playing your own music in the background work? I love the OST, but part of me wants to nerd out and play my Macross OSTs.

 

[antitrop]

Shame there's no plat for this. Only 11 trophies.

Not gonna lie, that's probably going to affect my long-term enjoyment of this game. I'll probably just drop it once I find it tedious, instead of pushing through for that Gold Trophy (whoop-dee-doo).

 

[SMK]

The way you can feather the boost for small adjustments in dogfights is amazing. Really enjoying the game so far.

 

[Snakebee]

Okay, now this is a fun game. Got through Season 1 first try, lost a couple of health bars along the way. It does feel like it's really easy to die if you mess up.
Faux anime character design and the voice acting/writing is cringe-worthy though. I turned the voice volume all the way down.

 

[mauaus]

So... Died on 1-5 had a pretty good setup going on and have 10 coins to my name... Do i spend 5 to retry or use them on a new game?

Choose for me gaf

 

[the_don_patch]

Definitely some frame rate issues when the explosions are big enough but otherwise I'm still loving this

It's not out in EU and there isn't a confirmed date yet

Up to you. But one thing to consider is that you lose everything and start from scratch (including all upgrades/weapons). I died at the same episode as you and did manage to get my stuff back, but not sure exactly how. Perhaps killing the enemy that killed you (guess). GL either way

 

[DrAndonuts]

Played the first season - awesome stuff. Controls are on point.

Ran into a really annoying bug on 2-1, when learning to use the

Spoiler

grappling hook

. In the last section of the level, when you have to

Spoiler

grapple the mission item, I couldn't grapple anything. Was able to slash the item to the warp point, but when I went to end the mission, only the missoin item registered, and I was stuck behind

. No way to end the mission, and I had to quit the game.

Oh my GOD THE SOUNDTRACK.

...bummed that I have to wait for the PC version, so I may buy the music to tide me over.

Glad to report thr mission was a success, got my stuff back by kicking serious ass... Feels good man
What happens if i die in chapter 2, what do i lose

This exact same thing just happened to me.

Also, when I hit the PlayStation button and come back to the game the controls stop working properly. If I'm in a menu the cursor will always try and go to the bottom.

Other than these issues I love the game.

 

[Sword Of Doom]

The patch downloaded for me this morning I believe. I didn't need to do anything once the game was available

Can't find it on EU PSN store.

Don't think it's launching in Europe yet

Yea, controls look like they'd be hard to learn, but highly rewarding to master, which is what you want really.

haven't played yet but just watching the gameplay it looks like the ship is extremely difficult to control. Just the way it moves around with the thrusters

 

[Interficium]

The framerate drops in big battles are pretty disappointing.

 

[Footos22]

Getting fed up with Games with no plat. Really does effect lomgetivity.
