			"''Where Aquarius was Mystery in the air, Heaven Part One was Combat Space Opera in the air, and the developers did a damn good job at it. If you needed a mod that did its best to focus the balance between story and action, and at least demonstrated what the standards should be in making a mod, Heaven is a mod for you. If you're turned off by [semi-]frequent dramatics, quit now. My only itchiness in it was a lack of a badass bombing mission. A Plus (I'd be willing to give another plus).''" - Black Yoshi
