Why play it

Starlight Alliance is an action RPG, featuring two playable characters – Cyris and Lea. If you like fast third-person shooter gameplay with plenty of character development, exploration, and puzzle-solving, Starlight Alliance is the game for you! Likewise, if you’re into shooting annoying drones that tell you to get back to work, we got you covered. Starlight Alliance has it all.

Story and worldbuilding

Welcome to the future – where everything is automated, recycling is at 99.9% efficiency, and Earth is considered at its peak. Humans and aliens now live side-by-side in sky cities far above the planet’s inhospitable surface. It all could have been perfect ... but it just wasn’t meant to last. Mysteriously, the systems started failing and the drone networks began acting up – nobody knows quite why. Two strangers, Lea and Cyris, each experience these system failures in two different ways and find themselves brought together by unforeseen circumstances. As a team, they’ll soon uncover dark secrets on the Earth's surface and find a chance at salvation somewhere out there in the cold darkness of space!

So although the game is fun to look at, and to think about, it rarely lives up to its lofty ambitions once it’s in motion. Combat is thankfully sparse enough that players get pushed towards their next objective briskly. Although enemies aren’t always fun to fight, they do look cool, and their bullet patterns are always an impressive spectacle. And while I came in expecting a 3D bullet-hell action RPG, what I got instead was an interesting sci-fi world to explore. It’s a pleasant surprise to see that a world this rich and complex came from a studio this small. Origamihero Games is a developer with huge ambition and a lot of promise, so I’d be keen to see the team iterating on ideas from this game and continuing to polish their craft.

On a general level, though things have begun to change in this generation, it can be tough to get people who've only enjoyed AAA titles over the years to take a chance on an indie title...
