Polynomial 2: Universe of the Music is an ambitious fusion of arcade space combat, music visualization, and procedural exploration developed and published by Dmytry Lavrov.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
5 of 64 sampled reviews raised it
This, in concert with the interesting levels and unusual enemies (my favorite resembling the Chain Chomp from Super Mario), made for a fairly dynamic-feeling combat, even with just a single weapon for the player.
