Although I haven't tried the game, it looks quite promising and seems to have a good future (as well as a good presentation)!
Avenging Alpha is an incredibly simple yet absolutely immersive space shooter. There were many moments in the game where I experienced pure excited and wonder at what was happening on my screen. I am very excited to see where this game goes next in it's development!
