What players say
Players describe Rick Henderson as a polished retro-style horizontal shooter with great synthwave music and clear visuals. It offers procedurally generated levels, multiple ships, and a variety of weapons that encourage adapting to enemy types. Some note its heavy similarity to Steredenn, and a few criticize the lack of key binding for keyboard players.
