Blue Rider is a short and intense twin-stick shooter with bright and colorful graphics that will keep you busy as you try to improve your skills. I surely became a better player after I was done with my Blue Rider review, and so can you!

Blue Rider is a refreshing twin-stick shooter that takes influences and innovates at the same time. It’s the best blend between these ideas I’ve seen in ages, although I do wish it was expanded more and wasn’t so choppy here and there. Besides that, it’s hard not to have fun with such a well-managed shooter.

Even with unfortunate performance hiccups, it’s safe to say Ravegan have created one of the more interesting and cleverly addictive shoot ’em ups in recent years. While Blue Rider‘s visual identity and art style may put you off the idea/concept this is in fact a charming-if-challenging throwback to 16-bit era side-scrollers, what lies behind it could be considered some of the more appealing set-pieces you can expect coming into a bullet-heavy, arcade-style shooter such as this.

Blue Rider is a wonderful bout of nostalgia that recalls a time when arcade machines where still relevant and quarters took up more space in your pockets than wallets and credit cards. Blue Rider is a sort-of top down shooter like Raiden, 1942, or Touhou - except with a lot less bullets and a lot more freedom of motion. In Blue Rider you maneuver a ship around one of nine worlds, shooting at, and hopefully destroying, any enemy ships that come your way.

Featuring upgradeable weapons, unlockable combat companions, and hidden collectibles to find, Blue Rider’s biggest problem is overzealous movement controls that make fine-tuned bullet dodging trickier than it needs to be. While it does not feature a story or basic plot, it makes up for it with fast action, explosions, and replayability as you try to reach the top of the leaderboard.

Blue Rider is a simple shooter that's a heck of a lot of fun to master but the lack of content prevents it from being a must-own title for genre fans.

If you’re here for story, look elsewhere. Blue Rider wants you to devote all your time to destroying everything around you. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it’s a lot of arcade fun to take for a spin.
