This was an interesting twist on the limitation! Great presentation too!

A fun little game! Good visuals and sounds, but lacks a custom menu. I would also like to see new levels. Good game!

REALLY FUN! only problem is that it doesn't fit the theme

If his main objective is to keep everyone alive, why can’t he heal the enemy soldiers? And, really, why go to war in the first place? Your first instinct might be to say: “to prevent as much suffering and harm as possible”, but that’s just silly. You see, if the military-industrial-complex doesn’t have enough soldiers to stage a war in the first place, then they can’t go to war, thus saving more lives. So this medic is actually causing harm by agreeing to participate in the war at all.

Graphics and sounds are pretty good, though.

Fair point. There's a lot of room for interpretation though. I saw it as someone who wanted to serve but doesn't want to kill. Kinda like the plot of the movie hacksaw ridge. Thanks for playing!

But, by serving, they are empowering death and those who will kill.
