Noctres Averno
I love the first arcadium. There isn't a device i own that I haven't installed and played it on near religiously. After trying this one I was put off as the style is totally different. But it was only minutes before that didn't matter. The game is great. Especially for what it is. It's nearly impossible find a game that is fun with replay value, easy to learn yet challenging but not impossible, and is COMPLETELY AD-FREE. this one hits all the marks A++ 5*. Thank you for making a quality game.

I love this game. I played the first Arcadium for hours on end and got endless enjoyment out of it. The graphics are fun and colorful, the enemies are varied and the boss fights can be very challenging. The one problem I have is controlling it. With this new control scheme having a tiny control stick that could potentially block some of the game field is very counterintuitive. I would love if you added controller support and even dual stick controller support so we can fire where we want. Thx!!!

In my opinion, a great game, but not quite as much fun as the first one I like that its unique- Arcadium 2{old name} isn't an upgrade of the classic one so much as it is a new entry with familiar (and expanded) stylistic elements. Where the first one starts off super fun and starts to lose its charm after a while, this one seems less exciting at first until you find yourself playing it more as you get a little better each time. I'm a bit biased because I'm better at vertical shmup controls🤷♂️
