![]() Wiggling is an important skill in high-level Geometry Wars play, and the DualShock 4’s friction failed me a number of times. The material of the stick and the plastic of the controller create too much friction to easily move the analog stick back and forth. The second issue is that the thumb sticks are difficult to wiggle. That’s something I don’t remember having problems with on the Xbox 360 pad. That can actually cause you to die if you’re trying to quickly change directions. ![]() My first issue is that the sticks feel too long. I typically love Sony’s PlayStation 4 joypad, but it does not feel right for Geometry Wars. It also means that I’ll have to experiment to find the best combination of skills, which is something that I don’t really want to do when I boot up Geometry Wars. This time around, someone might not understand how I did so well they could find this discouraging. The nice thing about the game is that you always knew you were on even ground with all your friends. This makes getting high scores much easier.įor me, that kinda spoils the purity of Geometry Wars. As you progress through the Adventure, you’ll unlock special drones and capabilities for your spacecraft. One thing that is different in Dimensions is ship upgrades. The big thing is that every stage has a leaderboard, so you’re always competing with your friends. While Adventure mode might not sound like the score-chasing gameplay that defined previous Geometry Wars games, Lucid did a good job of building in the hooks that kept me playing Retro Evolved 2 for hours. A few boss stages break up the pace a little, but they also play like Geometry Wars. Wisely, Lucid decided to base most of these stages on modes like Deadline and Waves that it introduced in Retro Evolved 2. This is a single-player campaign made up of a few dozen individual levels. The big new addition to Dimensions is the Adventure mode. But this is Geometry Wars with more stuff. The big concern I had going into Dimensions was that developer Lucid Games would change up the formula that made the previous releases so much fun. If you’d rather watch a video, you can check out my impressions below: ![]() So I’m gonna break down Geometry Wars 3 to help you understand if it’s worth your time. We only got our hands on the game last night, so we don’t have a full review - but we think the game is worth taking a quick look at. ![]()
