What players think
The recurring themes across 41 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The bottom line is, if you like shmups and want a tight gameplay experience that is as challenging as it is rewarding, delivered to you in a carefully crafted pixel art package, then Hyper Echelon is definitely worth taking out for a test flight.
Frankly, HE is a very good looking game, with crisp and clean visuals.
With events progressing in-between each stage, it conveys a simple but enjoyable enough plot.
Review by Games for Lovers - only GOOD local co-op games!
Nice little fun shooter, perfect a chill evening when you just want to kick back with a controller and blast things without thinking too hard about it.
