Curved Space

"If your idea of fun is flicking your boogers on the wall to see which ones stick, you probably won&s;t enjoy Curved Space. However, those who simply want some old-school action in a roguelike setup will surely appreciate what it …"

"In a genre where many feel that they&s;ve seen it all, Curved Space succeeds in providing something new. The titular curves may not be a huge innovation, but the game borrows enough from its procedural cousins to make its shooting …"

"Curved Space tries new things in the twin-stick genre. I appreciate the attempt, but most of those new things don’t work out. Playing it is often uncomfortable, and too many of its weapons are duds. At times the fast-paced shooting …"

"Curved Space is a noble attempt at a twist in the twin-stick shooter genre, yet it never reaches the highs of several other predecessors, with a synthwave soundtrack doing more to get the blood pumping than the slow gameplay and …"

"Despite its strong first impressions, Curved Space lacks the true variety to stand out in the crowd. You will find plenty to enjoy over the span of its brief runtime, but it isn&s;t substantial enough to warrant a replay. Only …"

"Curved Space may look like a one-trick pony with a simple gimmick, but it&s;s actually a very engaging twin-stick shooter teeming with good ideas and fun combat encounters."

"Is Curved Space more The Sixth Sense (a drum-tight, show-stopping thriller), or closer to The Happening (a meandering jumble of half-finished ideas)? The answer lies somewhere in the middle."

"A fantastic looking game with a banging soundtrack, but not one that will keep you occupied for too long. Gameplay is far from bad, but it&s;s not up to the same standard as the graphics and audio sadly. Curved Space …"

"I like playing Curved Space, but I found it most enjoyable when played in fairly short bursts. The ideas and the gameplay are both good, but the level design runs counter to the fast-paced gameplay when you simply can&s;t find …"

"Taking familiar gameplay and changing things up to take some risks has always been a core component of my love for indie titles..."

"If you’re a huge fan of twin-stick space shooters, Curved Space will do enough to hold your attention for a while. Its unique features don’t amount to much, however, leaving you with a rather mundane entry into an already crowded …"

"As it stands, Curved Space is a pretty good arcade shooter that manages to stand out even though it suffers from an annoying amount of feature creep."

"Curved Space is a decent twin stick shooter which has a variety of weapons, striking level backdrops, satisfying upgrade systems and a cool leash mechanic. Sadly, it’s significantly let down by repetitive objectives, technical issues and level design which is …"

"Curved Space is a fun modern take on the twin stick shooter genre but doesn’t offer many new advances that players might expect in this day and age of video games."

"Curved Space isn&s;t quite what I thought it would be when it comes to twin-stick shooters, but that&s;s not saying it&s;s bad by any means. The concepts are interesting, flying around and shooting down enemies while on planets that can …"

"The game has many new viewpoints and camera movement compared to any other conventional video games. While it’s cool, it also serves as a health risk to some. While the idea is fresh off the imagination, considerations may be lost …"

"All in all, I came away impressed with this game, will it make me a convert to ‘bullet hell’ types? No, but it will be a nice change of pace between some of my other games. If you are just …"

"Curved Space is described as arcade-style anyways, so I don’t understand why the devs thought the story was needed at all. If they focused on polishing a mode that players can have some mindless fun, Curved Space could be leaps …"
