What players think
The recurring themes across 88 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Space Elite Force is a pretty neat and lite side-shooter, offering some builds/customization and a fair amount of gameplay.
Clean retro pixel graphics and metal soundtrack.
The nice and chunky sound, coupled with very responsive controls make for entertaining gameplay, especially if you're using a controller.
While the main campaign can be completed fairly quickly thankfully you get an infinite mode and hardcore mode to encourage more playthroughs, both of which are fun.
It doesn't come without drawbacks, but they're minor, so at the end of the day, depending how much you pay for it, you can get a pretty decent local co-op game without regretting it.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
