Absolute rubbish. Thankfully I only paid £0.39 while it was 90% off. I was attracted by the title of the game because I'm obsessed with mars (I even purchased a 10'' reflecting telescope together with several hundred pounds worth of eye pieces) so that I could observe Mars). Stupidly, I didn't bother checking the reviews, seeing the positive rating a couple of the images from the Steam store and the 90% off persuaded me to buy the game. When I booted the game up, I was presented with a medium sized window with no option to play in full screen. When trying to play the game my mouse pointer was constantly leaving the game area and freezing my astronaut. As enemies were coming from both sides, I basically kept dying as I couldn't turn around quick enough to shoot them and repeatedly wandering out of the window and freezing again and again. It was at this point I checked the reviews and saw my friend Obey the Fist's review; oh how I wished I'd seen it earlier as I trust his reviews implicitly. He said, the reviews are likely posted by paid for reviews and from the ones I read I must agree; apart from a few negative reviews all of the positive ones were just one to three lines of text, usually starting with Good Idea, Good Game, a Good Platformer, a good 2D survival game, a good indie game, the game is good.

A good platformer in which we have to go to a spaceship in distress and defend on it the electric generator from the attacks of alien monsters, discovering and using new weapons, while learning the mysterious history of the spaceship.
