Skies of Chaos 9+

Awesome shoot em up. The animation is amazing and so beautiful. Smooth frame rate and, great color, awesome pixel look during gameplay. You got upgrades and side weapons, abilities and power ups. There's a lot of good stuff in this game. I love it. But I am very very annoyed by the all the dialogue that pop up during gameplay. I mostly ignore it though cos I'm trying to dodge bullets and shoot enemies(actual voice dialogue would be nice so I wouldn't have to read while playing a ShootEmUp). The dialogue box also pushes your plane up a bit higher on the screen. I also expected this game to work with a controller. Cos it's pretty difficult to see most of the screen playing with your thumb or finger. There is a lot going on in all stages. It's confusing to tell what it is you need to shoot and dodge cos of how much is going on. So much animation is just overwhelming. I still like the game. It's really fun. But all busy distracting animation is really the biggest issue for me.

Having finished all 50 levels and achieved 125 stars to get the final (useless) upgrades, it’s clear I loved the game. Similar to sky force, you have to clear the levels to move forward but need to complete goals to gain needed stars. There are glitches and bugs that really inhibit the gameplay and skies of chaos succumbs to several weird genre tropes that are so outdated and not fun.

First, levels that demand you kill a certain high percentage of enemies, but it’s unclear what is coded as an enemy or invincible enemies count towards the percentage. Second, Upgrades and side arms don’t have a preview and it’s unclear how they’ll be enhanced once upgraded. Third, so-called “alternative” levels that either drain your health or feature maze structures without enemies we’re not fun.

Overall, the game was good for a few days. The glitches or poor design choices kept it from perfection. I hope they can improve soon.

Fun game. I’ve been playing with my daughter.

There are several levels that are glitchy. Some are impossible to clear. It’s not clear if the indestructible things count in the tally of destruction percentage.

I played for a month. My collect daily gift thing just rolled over and died. It’s like they didn’t expect anyone to play for more than a month
