The game is really very heavy and does not turn to more than 15fps on my 960.
There must be a problem

Product received for free It's a good single player game. But I think a Co-op is good and the Control with Mouse and keyboard is ghastly.

Wing Commander like.
Very good (360) Controller support.
In the 2nd Mission you have to fly through an Asteroid Field.
Every Hit means instant dead.
Fun is something else.

What can I say? It's a great indie game with the feel of Wing Commander and the difficulty of X-Wing vs Tie-Fighter. Honestly, It could have been made a bit easier. I had to jump a few missions. But I deffintely recommend this game.

Very good game for fans of Wing Commander. The gameplay is very arcade and very fun but level story and "staging", one is very far from a wing co. I really struggle to get into history, and the dialogues are not very interesting I find. Fortunately, the missions that are of course the heart of the game are very nice and that's really the point.
Graphically it is correct without more, we do not Extasie in front of the beauty of the space, but since there is no exploration but just fights, it is not annoying. The game is very fluid on a E8500 and a GTX 275 with the details thoroughly.

Eterium follows the good old Wing Commander Series and hits the Mark in Gameplay. True to The Role model, almost all Missions start in a carrier, while with a previous Briefing, including tactical Map, you will be presented With mission goals and then completing them alone or with Wingmen.
The Missions are varied and include pretty much everything you can imagine. You never know which and how many Enemies expect you, which makes the Missions exciting, and you save the Missiles even for crisp Enemies.
Between missions, even in Ancestor to Wing Commander, there is an Opportunity to talk to other Pilots and Crew members-to learn more about Backgrounds to the Story, which is well-thought but unfortunately remains superficial. The Conversations are very strict, and the Counterpart, and Oneself, are presented in wonderfully drawn but incongruous anime portraits. (The Game was originally financed by Kickstarter, the first Draughtsman unfortunately did not react in Time, there was not much Time for Replacement.)
I can invariably recommend the Game to anyone looking for a down-to-earth, rock solid space shooter. The Game has ultimately become what it should become, and Gameplay is really King here. The Missions and Fights are crisp, entertaining (3-10 Minutes) and Action Rich enough staged that you definitely get your Money's worth-just for just €5/5.
