----- Articles & Commentaries -----

"Steelbound Sky by Witherwood Studios is a fresh new take on the traditional shoot-em-up genre. If you love those arcade shooters, but have wanted some different gameplay for the genre, then look no further than Steelbound Sky."

-AppAdvice

"It's a great mechanic and it provides immediate, exciting and tense experience with tons of last seconds moments where you are the brink of death but you still make it out alive. It's really cool and gives you a great feeling of accomplishment every time you beat a level."
