“A simple and fun game where you just go onto a space station and just shoot enemies till you have enough cash to upgrade your guns and keep going.”
Family Friendly
One of the great features of the game is that each game is different by having randomly generated levels, so as you play through the game that you will have a different experience. Sometimes this can be a good thing or bad thing depending on the level of the game and how far advance you are in playing the game. One of the other things that makes Deep Space Rush a fun game is that its simple approach to gaming. Jump onto the ship, shoot enemies and survive if you can. Use the tokens earned to upgrade your health, weapons and power ups. As you can see from pictures and video that this is a simple game but still fun to play. We had a great time playing this game and as the game is never ending it is all about trying to survive if you can in the game. This makes this game a great challenge game for anyone in your gaming family to see who can last the longest in the game. Outside of this, once you upgrade your weapons and special abilities, there is nothing else to do in the game. The only complaint that we had with this game was that the limitation on what you can do with the game. Outside of shoot, survive and repeat, there was no boss battles, co-op mode or even different shops to visit. We understand that this is a throwback of playing a 8-bit game but the developers had some wiggle room to add more. Maybe in a future sequel to the game may add these new features. In our special needs game testing of Deep Space Rush, we did not encounter any issues with the game’s graphics, audio or controller settings. Deep Space Rush is a very family friendly and special needs gaming friendly for the whole family and all ages.
Closing
With random generated levels, simple gameplay and lots of power ups. Dee Space Rush is a fun, budget game for your digital library.
