Well it's more of the same. This time with more levels, some of which contain sections where you need to navigate your ship inside a death star/space carrier. The variation helps and the game is slightly more difficult this time around. No real complaints, it's a fine little shmup.
As well as your regular shot you can fire bombs that are on a short 1.5 second or so cooldown. You develop a kind of internal metronome to hit the button every time it refreshes.
The game is very short, but most SHMUPs are.
It's far from the greatest SHMUP out there but it's very competent and fun enough that I'll keep picking these up if the developer keeps evolving it and pricing them cheaply like this.
