This really hit the Star Fox void I've been trying to fill since 2005. Wish it took more visual inspiration from 64 over the NES, but I'm willing to compromise
I do have some complaints. For one the fact missiles don't stack past 3 is annoying, so is not keeping laser upgrades between levels, but those are more nitpicks. My one real big complaint is that I do not like the security levels. They all feel so much worse then the main game and replaying them takes a long time, especially if you're through most of the levels and have to navigate back

Still I can't wait to see what the game is like when it gets more development!

Although the difficulty curve is very much a real thing, it was honestly really fun!
Some levels need to have either the enemies toned down a bit or reshuffle the level layouts in the lobby/map world.
Besides those main complaints, the game rocks and kicks ass!
Themes and levels are a real treat to the eyes.
Plus, some of the dialogue got a laugh out of me lol

It's basically Star Fox, except you play as a monkey instead of whatever species the dude from those games is. There's also some Space Harrier in there as well in the form of bonus levels. The game is short but sweet, though you can squeeze more out of it by trying to S-Rank the stages. I'm usually skeptical of early access stuff, but I don't regret this one at all.
