Good: AWESOME special effects using the Unreal 4 engine. Great shooter sounds and music.

Bad: The color combination and placement options take some time getting used to and can be frustrating. Building up combos can be a lot of fun, despite that. Focusing on the combo matches can distract the player from the enemy ships, resulting in health lost.

Overall "worth it" score, yes or no: YES!

Caveats: Have played once so far. Future plays might force me to adjust or even change my recommendation to a thumbs-down. I feel that my opinion is still being made about GALACIDE.

(Opinion formed based on playing the introductory level on "normal" difficulty.)
