Paladin

In the game you’ll first choose your ship, and there is at least a marginal level of importance in this decision, though most of the difference comes down to cosmetics and the behavior of your specials and at their core they all play roughly the same...

Paladin is a niche game. It combines gameplay of Missile Command and Asteroids to create masterpiece of nostalgia for the 80's. It's simple, can be relaxing, and is insanely easy.

Paladin is a cheap and cheerful twin stick shooter that gives plenty of ship upgrading abilities. But for what boils down to an hour’s worth of game time, that price still seems a little high and probably makes sure the game is something you’ll wish to pick up in a sale rather than at full price.

Paladin is a game that was enjoyable while it lasted, which was unfortunately about one hour. The gameplay is functionally sound and I never felt overwhelmed thanks to the handful of difficulty settings.

Paladin is a fine little twin stick and it provides a surprising amount of content despite the simple premise.
