Gave me the vibe of Amiga games I could only ever play at my cousins house. I struggled with the shooting accuracy at times, so perhaps a bit more forgiving on the hitboxes would ne nice. But you really crammed a lot of ideas in and polished them well. You should be proud!

- Very pleasantly surprised by the game. This is a real game. I would have liked an animation when he shoots, but overall it’s well animated, and there’s good music that really has that old-school demoscene vibe. There’s a story, there’s distortion effects, there are nice graphics — honestly, there’s nothing to complain about. I’m just a bit left wanting more — I would have liked a bit more content — but all the ingredients are there to make a great game.
- What a very nice game and idea. I struggled with the limited ammo and enemy count, which should be balanced a bit. One suggestion is to add more ammo to when you pick up a resupply as it would make the game more balanced.
- One of the best games in my opinion. At least technically and graphically. Because in terms of gameplay and enjoyment, it's not as good as other entries.
