Needless to say, the ability to draw Stix in diagonal direction makes the gameplay more interesting-although not necessarily easier since the Sparx are also more numerous and move much faster. More than any other Windmill Software games, Styx is a very faithful clone of the arcade original that Qix fans will immediately recognize.
