4.0/5

Solar Flux is a fun puzzle game set in outer space, in which you have to collect fragments of plasma and use them to rescue dying starts across the Universe. You need to overcome many obstacles along the way, from solar flares to asteroid fields, while managing a limited fuel supply and keeping your shields fully charged.

Given that saving the Universe is a rather big responsibility, you would expect to be given some decent equipment with which to complete your mission. What you get, however, is a tiny omni-directional ship that is capable of burning through your entire fuel supply in the blink of an eye and whose shields can take very little punishment.

These limitations make the game very challenging, as you always have to keep an eye on your readings to make sure your ship is not destroyed by radiation or left without propulsion in the emptiness of space.

Solar Flux is split into numerous missions that take place in several Galaxies, and you need to progress through all of the levels set in a particular region to be able to access the next zone.

Your primary goal is to gather plasma fragments that can be used to rescue dying stars. You can navigate the ship by clicking on certain areas of the screen, to activate the thrusters placed around the craft's circumference.

Of course, space travel is not as easy as you might think, and due to the lack of air resistance, the ship can be very difficult to control, as it will tend to keep moving in the same direction when you try to change its course.

As a result, traveling to individual plasma fragments and avoiding asteroids can be quite challenging. It helps to conserve your momentum and calculate your orbits around planets so that you use the least amount of fuel to complete the level.

Solar Flux is a fun puzzle game set in outer space that features impressive graphics, a calming ambient soundtrack and gameplay that, while certainly not groundbreaking or unique, can keep you entertained for hours.
