While the action is sometimes a bit too frenetic, the boss battles a bit too punishing, and the art style a bit too overwhelming, it&#8217;s a decent shooter and it was a lot of fun to play with friends.<\/p>\n<p>The aerial levels were especially satisfying and the game simply invites moments where a player can transform from a charging vehicle into robot form whilst hitting an enemy with their melee weapon.  This feels <em>incredibly good.<\/em>  Also, space slugs: ridiculous but fun.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the kind of game that I don&#8217;t anticipate picking up and playing again, but have no regrets about playing through once.
