  I bought this on the Xbox 360 years ago when it was first released and fell in love with the game. Yes it's old now, and it has 2 sequels but the original is still a lot of fun and it's hard as nails! It's just so addictive and if you work out how to play it properly, it's literally one of the best twin stick shooters ever made. The graphics still look great today. The way the background warps around your gunfire is still mesmerising today.

  A tremendous bang for your buck, providing a very excellent arcade shooting experience. While it seems more optimized for a game pad, my best scores were generally from using a mechanical keyboard.

  This review is using the STEAM DECK. Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved is a twin stick shooter. Two joysticks and a "smartbomb" button. You steer with one joystick and fire with another. It's gameplay is arcade like, it's visually interesting, and the sound on Steam Deck is great. I would recommend this on a normal screen device - but also, this is a perfect game for a Steam Deck.

  This game is likely older than a lot of people on Steam but it's a classic and it still works mostly fine on modern system. It also runs flawlessly on Steam Deck with inherent controls that don't need to be modified at all. GW1 suppports modern resolutions like 2560x1440 or 3840x2160 and supports every controller I've ever used - Neptune (Deck), xinput and Sony. If you aren't familiar with the game, it's a free-movement 2D space shooter set inside a rectangular bounding box where enemies or waves of enemies and obstacles spawn in periodically and each time you kill one you can collect a score modifier as well as earn weapon power-ups, bombs, and extra lives. The original game doesn't have a ton of content and only has one game mode, but at $4 you'll going to get plenty of mileage out of a simple arcade game.

  Depending on your PC it may have a bit of difficulty actually opening without crashing. I personally loved the game when I was younger and wanted to give it another shot, but I can't recommend it in its current state on steam.

  I would buy an XBox 360 just to play this game and its sequel on XBLA. Can someone at Steam get Geometry Wars 2 on Steam for purchase!?!?!?

  This is one of my favorite games of all time. Very addictive, fast, and flashy also the best twin stick shooter. If you're a fan of smash tv then this is a must have. I hope the other Geometry Wars games get on steam one day.
