Trab gehalten, da man ihre jeweiligen Bewegungs- bzw. Angriffsmuster lernen muss, um später auch nur den Hauch einer Chance zu haben. Und es gibt im Verlauf einige Gegnerzusammenstellungen, die sehr schnell die Sekunden von der Uhr knabbern. Weniger auf Trab hält einen der Elektro-Soundtrack. Prinzipiell passen die beatlastigen Kompositionen gut zur Action. Doch die Musik wird weder dynamisch eingesetzt, noch ist der Soundtrack besonders umfangreich. Und der Loop an immer gleichen Melodien erzielt etwa ab dem sechsten Kapitel keine Wirkung mehr.

Tachyon Project is a really fun and enjoyable game. The story itself took a while to get going and does not have too much narrative content to it, however this did not really detract from the gameplay. The levels themself do start to get slightly repetitive but the variation in the different enemies and upgrades for Ada seem to not cause to much of an issue. The game plays very smooth with lots going on in some sections. This game is definitely worth picking up if you like a dual stick shooter style game. It will also be a must game for the completionists and gamers who want an enjoyable 1000 gamerscore. All in all Eclipse games can be proud of Tachyon Project.

Tachyon Project does not reinvent the wheel for twin stick shooters, but it does add some creative new tread that allows it to feel familiar yet fresh at the same time. There are plenty of modes, challenges and customisations to try out, so fans of the genre should have plenty to keep them busy throughout their time with it. 

Hay poco más que decir, arreglando el frame-rate cuando multitud de naves exploran a la vez, añadiendo un nuevo nivel de dificultad y, sobre todo, traduciendo el juego, que no hacen falta voces en castellano pero al menos subtítulos en un título de factura española, sería un juego perfecto. Sin embargo, pese a esas cosas que se podrían mejorar, Tachyon Project es un título muy a tener en cuenta este verano, sobre todo si tenemos gente con la que jugar.

Overall and Project Tachyon is a lovely fireworks display on steroids; an attractive display complemented by some lovely solid gameplay. The omission of a scroll-able leaderboard and full stats page is a big miss however, with the twin stick shooter genre relying heavily on being able to compare your stats to your friends. I’m not overly bothered about the strangers that frequent the leaderboards near me, all I want to see is how I compare to my nearest and dearest, so why Eclipse have not included leaderboard filters or scrolls is beyond me. Similarly, online multiplayer, or at least the inclusion of online co-op, would have been a massive winner.

Tachyon Project es un arcade muy divertido, muy capaz de darnos un par de tardes de buen vicio. Jugablemente está muy bien y las 10 fases (con sus correspondientes 6 oleadas) son muy adictivas. Por otro lado, se agradece el intento de dotar al juego de una historia y de los añadidos de los retos y el multijugador local. Por otra parte, en lo negativo, es indudable que tiene una duración breve y que aporta relativamente pocas novedades a un género en el que hay un juego por encima de todos los demás: Geometry Wars. Raro también que no se hayan traducido los textos, aunque a nivel global y por menos de 10 euros, sin duda se trata de una apuesta sin riesgo: es divertido a rabiar.

As far as Twin-Stick shooters go, you could do a hell of a lot worse than Tachyon Project for  £7.99. There are a good few hours of fun to be hand in the story mode, and the Challenge Mode with Leaderboards will only extend this gameplay, with the constant murmuring in your ears of “one more game”. It doesn’t have the stunning art style of Geometry Wars, but Tachyon Project has a lot of it’s own merits that certainly make it worth checking out. Tachyon Project is available on The Xbox Store now.

Tachyon Project seems to take a lot of inspiration from Geometry Wars but puts its own spin on things. Taking cues from one of the best twin stick shooters ever made, isn’t a bad thing in the slightest.

En resumen, podemos decir que Tachyon Project es un juego perfectamente recomendable. No sólo dispone de un modo campaña muy interesante, con una historia que sorprende más por su existencia y coherencia que por su originalidad, sino que es jugable hasta por cuatro jugadores, y tiene marcadores en línea para competir entre usuarios. Si no tuviese la competencia de un juego tan conocido como Geometry Wars lo cierto es que hablaríamos de un imprescindible a día de hoy entre los matamarcianos de Xbox One.

achyon Project è un twin-stick shooter che assomiglia nettamente a Geometry Wars, sia nel gameplay che soprattutto nello stile grafico. Ma guai ad etichettarlo come un clone qualunque, perché aggiunge diversi elementi piuttosto innovativi come la sostituzione delle vite classiche con un sistema di countdown a tempo, la presenza di una storia abbastanza interessante e la massiccia personalizzazione della navicella del giocatore. Con 10 livelli abbastanza lunghi e ampiamente rigiocabili per le classifiche più 3 sfide giocabili in cooperativa locale, la nuova opera di Eclipse Games è capace di offrire diverse ore di adrenalinico divertimento al buon prezzo di lancio di 9,99 Euro. Pur senza livelli di eccellenza, è un gioco che si lascia giocare con piacere e gli appassionati degli shoot 'em up e dei twin-stick shooter dovrebbero dargli una chance.

Tachyon Project è un dual stick shooter semplice, immediato e in grado di presentare anche alcune interessanti meccaniche. Il suo unico difetto è quello di durare un po' troppo poco, ma c'è da dire che in rapporto al prezzo (10 euro) la cosa pesa molto meno. Da prendere in considerazione per tutti gli amanti del genere e per i divoratori di gamerscore.

Players looking for a game that reinvents the twin stick shooter genre won’t find Tachyon Project worth their time, but for those of us that know what this genre offers won’t be disappointed even if it isn’t a game that we’ll be playing a year from now. The predictable story fits well with the gameplay and gives the player an added dimension other than fighting off the bad guys. Sure it may be the same vanilla story told a hundred times before with dated visuals, but players will look past that with the excellent controls and variety of ship options. After all the mediocre “arcade” releases this year it is refreshing to get into a game that offers a bit of nostalgic appeal and brings a decent challenge to the table.

It’s far from perfect, but despite its gripes and grizzly bosses, there’s something charming about Tachyon Project that makes you keep wanting to play. Its very simplistic nature makes it easy to pick up and play, making you want to indulge in “just one more level”. The timer system is frustrating, and frequently being told “you ran out of time” rather than “you were brutally one-hit-killed” gets rather irksome, but the quenching satisfaction of speeding around a screen filled with enemies as you blast every one of them into tiny pieces outweighs the niggles. Any fan of retro-style shooters certainly should give this one a go.

I really enjoyed Tachyon Project, a lot more than I thought I would after first sight. It is a fun, fast paced and hectic title that has a good difficulty curve and solid fundamentals. It doesn’t reinvent the genre but it does a great job at making it its own and for ten bucks, you could do a lot worse.

Tachyon Project is a twin-stick shooter with a few major differences that affect things in a positive way. Enjoyable and thrilling while it lasts but also all too short and a shade too easy for those with any sort of skill in the genre, it's one that will surely hit the spot to while away an afternoon. Just don't expect it to last all that much longer than that.

As far as addictive Geometry Wars-style twin-stick shooters are concerned, you could do a hell of a lot worse than Tachyon Project. There's a good few hours of frantic blasting fun to be had here, and while it doesn't have the replayability or overall appeal of Geo Wars (it's hard not to keep drawing the comparison), Tachyon Project does have a lot of its own merits that make it worth checking out.

Even if you’re quite skilled in the genre like myself, be warned of an extreme spike in difficultly in the last few levels. I found myself stuck on one of the levels where the difficulty ramped up completely out of nowhere and it was incredibly frustrating. Once you do complete the campaign, the lack of compelling extra modes really does hinder the title as a whole, again, unless rising up on the leaderboards are your thing. Tachyon Project does enough things to make itself stand out against the bigger names in the genre and be competent, but falls short on doing much else to really rise above and beyond the kings of the category.

 wasn't sure about this game when I got it as it’s not down my alley, but after trying out Tachyon Project I really enjoyed the feel and challenge, sure the game is short but that’s what £7.99 gets you nowadays. People spend that on FIFA FUT packs and get no satisfaction, whereas this has life in it and is fun to play with friends, it will not make you smash your room up and looks pretty for the cost I think it is a great game.

In the end, Tachyon Project is a half-decent game that will appeal most to a select group of gamers. Despite boasting a unique take on incurred damage, the title’s slower pace and occasionally dull engagements hold it back from being as good as it could’ve been.

Tachyon Project tiene buenas ideas y es un título entretenido, al mismo tiempo de que nos esperábamos algo más de él. Podremos disfrutarlo de un modo a veces frenético, con un buen control aunque en líneas generales sin más complicación que tener un poco de habilidad. Hemos echado en falta un poco más de ambición en el proyecto con la incorporación de mayor dificultad o retos que nos tengan sin soltar el mando. Un multijugador de adorno, una historia escueta y poca duración son aspectos que en caso de una segunda entrega habria que mejorar, sin olvidar pequeños fallos técnicos y por supuesto la ausencia de los textos en castellano cuando ha sido desarrollado aquí. Si te gustan los logros fáciles y rápidos tambien es una buena opción, aunque el precio de 9.95 euros puede ser un poco elevado.
