A better Breed of Alien
It's a top-down shooter a lot like Alien Shooter and Zombie Shooter. Personally it's better than Alien Shooter for me.
The saving the frustrating to say the least, the game only saves once a level is complete and a level can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. The game itself is fairly easy, I played it on easy the first time as I just wanted to cruise through it and enjoy the giblets, however in the last three levels the difficulty curve gets ridiculous, and the final boss is just a meaningless bullet magnet. The second-to-final boss is easier the type-2 heavy enemies.
The weapons feel fairly weak and there is no melee. The controls are clunky and there is practically zero key bindings, forget using a controller/gamepad as this game is unplayable using one as it has no left joystick support for some reason even though it recognises it and does not support triggers (I use a PS3 controller emulating an XBOX360 PC controller via DS3, works perfectly with Guacamelee, Don't Starve, etc). The save games are mapped to player profiles which are actually different control schemes and are named so. Graphically the name does feel 2006 but does feel a bit dated.
In short; use a keyboard+mouse, no replay value, dated graphics, clunky save system, retarded controller support, fun while you play but not much more.
Wait for a sale, best played in co-op.
