Pretty fun game, great concept. Little rough around the edges. Hilarious how ahead of it's time this game is in a way. It's almost like a PvE extraction game long before that craze took off. It's well worth it's price in my opinion. I think my only problem with it is just that I don't really like the respawning enemies much. They just respawn too quickly and make it less strategic to use resources. Instead you end up using things like the mag launcher to bust up sections and clear enemies. I'd much prefer that you have a lot less ammo and the enemies respawn a lot less making them individually more of a threat and making the punch more valuable. As it is, the punch attack is really just to shove enemies back. With that said, I love figuring out which way to enter a container and all the complexity and thought that comes from a strangely simple system. You can enter from the top of a container, or cut out the bottom of it to have enemies tumble into the void. There's such great variety. I have no idea how this game didn't do better. Anyway, really fun collection based game with great core ideas. I hope someone one day takes lessons from this game and makes something similar.
