DO NOT PAY $35 US (retail price US on store page) FOR THIS TITLE!!! Screw this new marketing gimmick. It exists to entice people to believe more of a game exists and is worth it when a sale drops it to an understandable cost. I bought this during its introductory sale period and am reviewing this based on my satisfaction level of what I paid at the time, which was reasomanle.
Now, onto the review...
I've got nothing bad to say about the game as qa game. Simple sci-fi 2d roguelite. You die, retain levels earned, repeat. 2+ hrs in and only now cracked level 8, though much of that was my own fault not understanding the ammo count to the right is how many bullets the gun holds and not how many shells I have on reserve.
Much like The Binding of Isaac and the many clones that followed, you're trapped in a small room with enemies. Shoot them all to open the doors and advance until; you find the escap-e hatch dead center of the room which can only be used when said room is cleared of enemies. Unfortunately this is sort of a guessuing game as it doesn't seem to matter where you go. I have always just eventually found it by going up all the time.
You gain levels the more you play and clear floors. Each level completed essentially ends the game, sending you back to the main menu where you can start fresh or continue on to the next. Kill counts carry over untio you die, as does weaponry picked up along the way. The ammo, however, is scarce and does not refill until you find the corresponding item drop. Picking up a new gun of its ammo type does not automatically refill your supply.
Breathspace can become a bit dull to play despite later stages introducing harder opponents, and I found myself leaving the game after dying one or two times. It is done well enough in its simplistic fashion to keep me coming back after a little while though. I do recomend this game, but ONLY on sale for two, maybe three dollars US.
I reierate: DO NOT BUY THIS AT THE FULL PRICE OF $34.99! Yes, I've paid more for, far worse than this game, but given the likelyhood of a massive price drop again next sale date, you are much better off waiting on it.

a cool indie game in which you have to shoot and dodge your opponents, it reminds one of the popular rhythm games in which you have to walk around and clean the rooms, but here the gameplay is much simpler, but no less fun for that. Only dynamic music is missing and you can stick to the game for hours, since no one bothers to turn on your favorite music and play to it. 10 out of 10. Definitely worth your money.

Battles against space creatures in a small arena - a 2D shooter about space battles. Nice shooter, good price - everything suits me, I recommend it!

An interesting game, what about super special is no different. but it attracts with its small price and simplicity. Some levels are difficult to pass the first time, some pass immediately and quickly

Dead space, but without the hideous monsters, frightening atmosphere and creepy screamers. A simple shooter game involving killing enemies with necessary items and supplies. All in all, not bad.

An exciting action roguelike in a sci-fi setting. You are a scientist lost in space and finds himself on an endless space station with a bunch of vicious opponents. I was pleased with the customization of weapons, pumping the character and increasing the complexity as you progress. I recommend!
