Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
I'm sure they lost a lot of money on this game, which clearly flopped, and all it would have taken to get maybe 5X or 10X more people playing it would have been to provide the conventional, expected sort of controller support for the genre.

+ Seems like it has a solid gameplay loop for people who are into this genre.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
This recommendation comes with a couple of big caveats: the game is better in co-op, and the difficulty spikes quite a lot for the finale, so you'll want two good flight gamers to get the most out of this, not to mention a big screen for the split-screen co-op view.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
But what I can't stand is a game that values co-op multiplayer over singleplayer.
