Description: A spectacular retro arcade blaster. Edge online: ... delivers a psychadelic experience that one would be remiss to not experience. Taking the simple concept of a single ship shooting various sized space objects from the sky, Spheres of Chaos delivers an eye-boggling visual encounter using up to 130,000 pixels to create firework explosions, rockets and trails. ...an astonishing range of levels and enemies - enough to keep even the most dedicated gamer occupied, although their sanity after extended play might well be doubted... Confusing, explosive, enticing fun - not to be missed. Edge magazine: It may hurt the eyes after sustained play, but Spheres of Chaos is worth all the effort. Shoot a rock crystal and it is as likely to leak liquid pixels as explode in a shower of space dust. Daily radar: Spheres of Chaos is a startling reminder that games don't need to span multiple CDs or use 3D acceleration to be great; ...the visual effects are utterly hypnotic. | Short tags: arcade, game, space, retro, blaster, visual, psychadelic, mayhem, triptastic, spheres, chaos, spheres of chaos, psychadelic mayhem | System Requirements: Windows + DirectX 5.0, or Linux + SDL | Change Info: Crash bug fixes | Find last version of Spheres of Chaos | |
