Space Smash

Short description

A retro-style, fast-paced, and addictive shoot 'em up. A throwback to the classic arcade games of the 80s. Great for playing while waiting in line for another game. (shmup)

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range disagree, so the band is widened to cover both rather than picking a favourite. Multiplied by $1.14, the average price these copies actually sold for — weighted from the price history rather than taken from the $2.99 launch price. That is 62% below list price on average. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
