Fullblast is another installment from those wonderful guys at Ratalaika Games S.L. making games to help pad our gamerscores. I think I got the full 1000 in about fifteen to twenty minutes. I think I completed the full game all twelve levels in about two hours. I had a good time doing so, so I didn't mind the shortness of it, because that and the Coop mean it is something that will certainly mean a lot of replay value. It is without question worth the small price tag attached to it of around five dollars. If your a achievement hunter, you will with out question be adding this to that list of must pick ups.

Fullblast reminds me of a modern reimagination of "Xevious" or "Tiger Heli" and it is just as fun as those. Loaded with all kinds of alien baddies, and really cool boss fights fans of the ship shooters will have a last with this one, One might say you'll have a "Fullblast" with this one. I know cheesy sorry, but the games not it's a blast from start to finish. The graphics bring a more modern look to it, with a modernized look. Nice looking backgrounds, and really good looking enemies and bosses. The bosses are all really different and unique, and make you discover their weaknesses. All kinds of different pickups as well that change your weapon layout and make things feel different every time.The music , and sounds are pretty good as well. enjoyed the rock soundtrack mixed with classic feeling game sounds.

All in all I had a good time with "FullBlast" it isn't a game that is going to blow you away, but it also isn't a game you will regret buying. Especially if your a fan of collecting Achievements or Retro titles. It will fill a evening of fun with a friend, or alone, and there isn't much more you can ask then that when dropping around five dollars for a game.So grab the controllers, a friend and rid the planet of these pesky invaders this evening you will be glad you did.

Pros: Nice Retro feel, mixed with a dash of modern feel

Gnarly Soundtrack, Rocking out til the end

Coole Enemies, and bosses keep you on your toes

Coop, and Shortness gives a Contra like Replay value

Awesome Pickups that change the low of combat

Cons: A little on the short end

Think a little under developed, could have been great

Overall: FullBlast is a good game that probably could have been great with a little more time put into it. Still it is very fun, It is a must play for fans of the genre, and Achievement Hunters. Hopefully these guys make a sequel or another game. Hope they really put some time into it, because they really left me wanting more. wanting more of the same, but a more complete experience.
