Legacy of the Elder Star – Released

ElderStarPosterI wanted to shout out this release from a friend of mine: Legacy of the Elder Star, by Kickbomb Entertainment. It’s a shoot-em-up (“shmup”) intended for more casual players. Those of us who go “oooh, that looks like fun!” when we see a bullet-hell game, and then last a whole 30 seconds in those kinds of games. It is designed specifically to take advantage of the mouse. You control your character – the Cosmonaut – as if he was a mouse cursor. There are plenty of unlocks, environments, boss-battles, and fun stuff. I’ve played various demos over it for a long time, but I was very pleased to buy a copy of the final game last night.

The game offers unlimited continues, but I like to limit myself to just a couple. Which means I don’t get too far. But that’s okay. I have plenty of time to get to the end… 🙂 But it’s a lot of fun, and a great game to just jump into for a quick break on your PC.

If you are interested, it’s on sale at Steam right now for its launch:
