Critic Reviews for Hyper-5
Hyper-5 is an entertaining game for fans of horizontal Shmups with a realistic look for the ship and environments. Can get repetitive at times, but the interesting enemy designs like the ones that look like Transformers are a lot of fun to battle.
Hyper-5 combines solid shoot ‘em up action with realistic visuals and the end result is a bit of a mixed bag. I like the look of it but those visuals also cause visibility issues for the player. While the gameplay is fun and upgrading your ship is satisfying, you’ll be playing the same few stages over and over to do so which can get a bit old.
While it tries to create some extra interest with some cool and somewhat cinematic transitions, the core play experience is a mixed bag
