I don´t recall having played many dual stick shooters in my
gaming life. Maybe a bit of Geometry Wars years ago. Thing is a friend and
former workmate has a small indie studio called Eclipse Games, and he released
some time ago Tachyon Project, his own interpretation on this genre
In short, it´s very similar to Geometry Wars but with an
extra RPG layer - You can choose between different weapons, and some powerups. It´s a dual stick shooter that plays well, the balance is
adecuate and it´s definitively enjoyable. To add an extra twist there is a
short story and some replayability options. After finishing the campaign, I even spent some time grinding
achievements, they´re reasonably easy to obtain
The price is cheap, it´s fun and you´d be helping a small
studio. If you´re interested in the genre I personally recommend it
