Redout: Space Combat (2019)
Redout: Space Combat (2019)
Rail-based space fighter combat game (though some levels are free flight and you can go anywhere). It has pretty good graphics, good enough that slower iPads have trouble running the game.
Redout supports controllers which is why I tried it out. Works fine with my Xbox controller the number of buttons you use slowly increases.
Levels have some variety. Destroy things, scout an area, protect a freighter, rescue people. You have a blaster and a missile weapon and can change them out for, say, a blaster with less range but is a shotgun.
You collect coins and each level has three achievements for extra coins. You use the money to upgrade your ship and weapons and can grind levels to get money. Or repeat levels to get achievements you missed.
Still, after a few hours of play it's not a captivating game. I stopped playing for a few days and now don't miss playing it.
