Games Asylum: "Even though it’s a straightforward horizontal shooter, UIG’s Space Blaze is an odd proposition. It prides itself of being a retro throwback – a delightfully old-school experience inspired by the classic shooters of the ‘80s. But instead of featuring pixel art, chiptunes and similar retro flair, it resembles a typical modern-day scrolling shooter with polygon-heavy spacecraft, detailed 3D backdrops and a soundtrack akin to late ‘90s Eurotrance. In the same way that Nex Machina didn’t make me feel gooey and nostalgic for Robotron, despite the similarities, Space Blaze didn’t make me fondly recall the days of Gradius and R-Type."
