Below average space shooter
Galacta - The Battle for Saturn is a vertical space shooter brought to us by Sean Puckett. Not to be confused with the Marvel character with the same name, the game while being considered decent, is not on par as many of the other games in the same genre, like with Invasion of the Mutant Space Bats of Doom. The main is that the game is more boring, most power-ups are useless and it can become really hard. The game has no set story, so all you need to know is that you have to blast everything that in front of you and coming at you. The controls are a bit clunky and it's a bit hard to manuveur the spacecraft around. The enemy path is so cryptic, that it makes the first wave to be hard to avoid without getting hit. And to add insult to injury, everytime you die you need to restart the section, instead of continuing where you left off. This means that the enemies you just killed have respawned, but the power-ups will still remain, which I think is supposed to be a good thing. The graphics are kinda dull and the sound effects are typical bleeps and bloops of other classic DOS games. Overall, Galacta - The Battle for Saturn is a below average game and cannot be really recommended.
