![]() ![]() It just requires a fair amount of patience to see it all. It offers more than enough new stuff, both story driven and not, to keep even the most diehard Galaxy on Fire fan busy for a while. Not pleasant.ĭespite my grievances there’s really no reason for fans of the game to avoid the Supernova expansion. No time to react, just all guns on me and boom. Then I warped straight into the middle of a skirmish on the last waypoint. Everspace made things very interesting, and yet the GOF games (I did 1 and 2) on mobile came in at 1GB+ downloads and they were packed with so much solid. Tense, yes, but also annoying because I had to jump from risky system to risky system as carefully as possible and any little skirmish typically resulted in death. If I boost, take a hit, or even turn too quickly things become unstable. The biggest problem for me, however, was the “transport a volatile substance” mission. The aforementioned system hopping mission was also a tad bothersome as it drags on for a bit and isn’t very interesting in the first place. ![]() However as interesting and tense as the radiation can be, it can often leave players in a no win situation even if they survive a tough fight.

It doesn’t sound like much but constantly being under a time limit when in the affected systems adds quite a bit of tension to the missions. One significant addition to Supernova is the effect of gamma radiation. At first the not so humble space jockey sets out to help with various rescue missions and refugee escorts, but soon he finds himself smack in the middle of all manner of interstellar politics and intrigue. A supernova is threatening to destroy the entirety of Midorian space. After saving the galaxy from multiple threats several times over, things are finally getting serious. As great as it is to have all the “more” we’ve been craving, I’d find it much more enjoyable if I didn’t have to slog through so much frustration to access any of it.įor the uninitiated, Galaxy on Fire 2 tells the continuing story of Keith Maxwell: Professional Indestructible Space Hero and All that Implies. Galaxy on Fire 2 - Supernova offers just that for fans of the iOS space adventure. More reasons to come back for, well, more. The largest complaint I typically see (and often make myself) about an excellent game is the desire for more. ![]()
