What players think
The recurring themes across 173 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The best part of Portal 2 was the co-op mode, for instance, since it took the established gameplay and spun it into something fresh with a reliance on teamwork.
PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate combines Shooter 1 and 2 in this nice pack of graphic update where you can choose between classic, vector-looking PixelJunk style, and ultimate style with remastered graphics that can run in 60 FPS (if your PC specs are decent enough).
I think the joys of good co-op often get overlooked in this age of widespread multiplayer deathmatches.
The soundtrack complements the visual tone with ambient electronic compositions that ebb and flow with the action.
The gradual escalation of difficulty keeps the experience challenging without feeling unfair, giving players a tangible sense of mastery over both their ship and the world’s physics.
Controls are simple and responsive, too - I can finish only with mouse and keyboard, although controller seems to be the most recommended since the control tips are for controller user.
