What players say
Players are split on Xenoraid. Some praise the ship-swapping mechanic and find the inertia-based movement intentional, while others say the controls are frustrating and the game relies on random enemy spawns instead of crafted levels. Many note the short campaign length, around six hours, and the limited credits earned per run.
