who the hell keeps making these vampire survivor knockoffs dude, stop!!! actually don't because i'm really enjoying this little micro-genre/artistic trend/whatever. there's something pretty nice about games that only require WASD to play, i can just kick back, crack a coffee, put on some music (current fav: the new caroline polachek track 'sunset'), just chill.

ok onto the actual game - void scrappers is another solid entry in the 'survivor-like' subgenre, which is what i've seen it called now. the fundamentals are still here; you just drift around, automatically shooting at waves of enemies while collecting currency/xp, used to purchase stat and weapon upgrades. it has a pretty classic Ships in Space theme, very similar to a lot of shmups/asteroid even, with your guy piloting a tiny ship in a big scary galaxy full of Space Cops or something. what sets void scrappers apart & also makes it a little crappy is just how Twitchy it is.... your ship has near ice-level physics and the enemies shoot little pea-sized red dots that get really hard to keep track of, and so most of my deaths are from a gust of wind grazing my W key and accidentally pushing me 0.001 microns into some dudes ship, and then you die instantly cuz this character has no shields..... alas. pretty all around solid, but i really need to stop playing these lol
