The indie scene is exploding, and with it the two main indie genres: platformers and shoot 'em ups. Razor 2 falls squarely into the second category, with all the trappings of classic shmups: plenty of enemies and bullets, Japanese text, and a vertical perspective. However, Razor2 falls short in nearly every department, rendering the game a playable, but disappointing mess.

"Razor2: Hidden Skies is a top view shooter. The game has the style of successful classic arcade games, while using the latest technology to create great visuals and effects. An old-school game with all new technology. Razor2 has easy gameplay, while challenging your skills with hundreds of enemies and bullets threatening you all the time. The soundtrack is another great feature, Razor2 uses classic orchestrated music, composed especially for the game."
