Bring back the AA 2000s fps genre. These games were fun and unique much better then the modern copy and paste games we have today. Fun game play, interesting time mechanics, great physics 8/10.

Its an extremely fun game. but a word of warning, youll need to look into a free update to be able to get it running. Which is simple and straight forward. Id recommend looking it up on youtube. Despite that, the game was really fun, and using your cool time powers in combat was engaging. It has cool bullet time, stoping time, and reversal. While the other two powers had meanigful uses. Slowing down time uses less resource cost. While stopping time is does consume energy, but allows you to steal enemy weapons as well as shoot it out of their hands, and even gives your health regen a kickstart. Reversal does allow you to prevent grenades from killing you, but its main use is with puzzles, i wish its usage had more potential and reason to use it. Even so, the gunplay is smooth and enjoyable, and the weapons are pretty cool. I especially enjoy that some enemies have time powers which are counteracted with yours, giving it an almost puzzle element to battle, while not being so overly complicated that it becomes a bore. **semi-spoilers** My only real complaint is the BBEG (big bad evil guy) who has a time suit doesnt ever utilize it against you during his boss fight, yes destorying his huge fortress of doom is cool, but him not using his powers to counter yours is kinda wild. A final showdown against him using his powers to hinder yours would be awesome. Neither of you are soliders but scientist, so a battle of "Wits" would be awesome, finding a way to use your powers to outsmart him woulda been cool, but no he kinda just dies along with his fortress. But I can forgive it because the game is still fun. Just has some wasted potential

Fun short fps, with a fun time mechanic and great weapons. Needs some additional work to make usable, with the 1.2 patch and the cpu fix, but once those are in it works great.
