A nice enough game with good enough GFX and music but the SFX are grating and it is highly finicky, particularly the coffe mug in the first building. The story is passable and the puzzles doable, getting elite is not such a cakewalk though... as it should be. I'd have given this game a higher overall score but the SFX are bad enough and the backwards and forwrasds nature of the puzzle solving tedious (very MGS... seems it influenced this game in more ways than one). Overall a passable game but no more - the sequel could be better than this though so we'll see if things have improved :)

A nice game with good SFX and GFX - good gameplay, interface and GUI - overall a very well implemented version of the genre and though it includes little originality (except in terms of art) it is rather good - but for one sticking point... the difficulty ramp is insane... you got from pedestrian to hard to impossible (without retreating and playing levels for second times to pay for upgrades - forced replay... yeah, that's gonna go down well, especially with the top players). So overall a nice, balanced game but for the level design... just too lazy to build a few more levels?!? Shame...

Nice little game with good music, SFX and GFX. Will occupy five minutes, no problem though possibly with an aching wrist and a possibly less than perfect keyboard! The biggest problems are that it is over too fast but also that it is a hammer-fest. Other than that a game that'll keep you coming back if you've a minute to spare.

A nice game with good music and pretty GFX, everything works rather well (though it would be nice if the choices you made had a little more impact), about the only bad thing is the pickiness of the door in opening it (but then that kind'a fits with the story) and that it cliffhangs so suddenly... though it is a very good cliffhanger. Looking forward to playing/reading the sequel :)

Thanks! The sequel is available now if you're interested in playing it.

Nice game with execllent music and a very good sense of humour (loved all of the in-jokes). The GFX, SFX and interface are all very well tailored to the style of the game and the GUI works well (though the crosshairs could be a little more obvious - mostly a problem in later missions). Overall a very good game with lots of replayability and enjoyable for longer and more fully than a lot of the genres this overlaps with. Keep up the good work :)

Rather an atmospheric and interesting story with a passable twist and and little decision making on the part of the player (enough to make you feel a little better or worse)... excellent music, good use of graphics and emotive use of dialogue (the colour changes were nice too). Overall a nice story, the biggest pity is that it was rather slow so going through for the second ending was not really worth it given the time it took...

Well it seems that my achievements from last time around din't even stick - and I discovered I was being generous with the medium badge... it sucks too - pure chance... man this game sucks *sigh*

The graphics are beautiful and the music pretty good (though one tune seems unfinished), the gui works well enough and it moves very smoothly but... it is probably one of the most unsatisfying games I've played in a long time, there is little progression and what there is of it takes an age to get to... I got two of the platninum medals on my first run and have little desire to wait at least twice as long for the gold one that depends on random drops to turn up - nevermind platinum... basically you're asking us to sit and grind... why bother? Ther eis no storyline so that's out the window and since the gets are random then there is nothing to do but move the mouse a bit (though I suppose at least we don't have to hold the mouse button down to fire...) Poor.

Nice images and somewhat relevant music but overall way too easy with no progression and a slightly unintuitive interface - it was difficult to notice which pieces you had definitely placed and rather than swaps being the limiting factor it was time so random swaps would do as long as they were done swiftly... oops. Overall, too short and too easy and most unoriginal.

A very nice game with excellent music, SFX and GFX. Good storyline (certainly for this type of game) and a very nice twist on the genre. Nothing bad to say about this game and everything that might be that little better already has been though about and is! It was a joy to play this game although apparently I don't have the skill for the challenge levels (or maybe the time to learn every detail...) Overall an excellent game that kept me coming back day after day :) Keep it up :)

Gave up on level 3 so I can't talk to the rest of the game but this seems to be almost as far as anyone really gets in this game... repetitive and dull, no music, passable SFX, bad GFX, controls intuitive, passable game design but bad implementation - becomes much to ohard, much too quickly and there is nothing to differentiate levels significantly given such a steep difficulty curve. Overall, poor game though it might be on to something with a lot of balancing and some reworking.

A nice little game with good SFX and GFX, an original little puzzle that's good for killing a few minutes. The later levels can be a little difficult when you can't easily see all the circles but with good estimation that's not really so much of an issue. The GUI is a little clunky for inputting numbers but otherwise is very good. Overall a nice little game, keep up the good work :)

So a kinda nice game but with a lot to be desired - no mute, no music, SFX are passable but GFX not great. The distance and height you go seem almost random once you get the good stuff, one time I'll get 600 and the next 1000 with pretty much the same "get in" and "jump" levels... the cart will also tilt randomly forwards or backwards on laucnh and usually the further you might go the worse it tilts making tricks harder than getting less of a jump?!?! Overall a less than passable game and the hard achievement Kongregate gave it is one fo those random badges that you'll get if you are fortunate or just keep going at it long enough that the stats swing in your favour...

Okay SFX and GFX, good interface and a more intereesting challenge than a lot of launch games... though the story seemd to be one of Von Brunner (sp?) - one of the main problems I had with the game was that the boosteres that seemingly were supposed to help you more often got in the way and generally made a nuisance of themselves. Overall a passable game with some interesting elements and better than run of the mill for those but lost it with sopme annoying elements and barely passable music and SFX.

Very nice little game with good music and GFX, very smooth interface and nice GUI, about the only reason to say anything bad about it is that it is a little easy - which might be because you have to download the full version to get the rest of the levels... Overall a good puzzle game, keep up the good work :)

Nice idea and good implementation, especially with the deaths being worth trying and little hinderance, good music and SFX though the grphics were a little slipshod. Overall a nice game and worth a runthrough - though it was not worth replaying for the (potential) other endings... the star door teleports you back naked!

Overall a nice game with greatmusic, SFX and GFX - intuitive to learn and difficult to master (like all the best games). Excellent replayability, or just play a ten second quickie, the myterious plot makes the whole thing even more atmospheric and gives the runner genre a hint on how to go with these - there is clearly a reason to run here and it makes it a better game! Overall, excellent, could do with a little more lead time on those windows though!!

This is a good game, it has all the necessary elements of one and starts you off nice and simply but you get to the point that suddenly the game is trying to piss you off... intentionally throwing you for a loop and then lulling you into a false sense of security again... don't dare... you'll only get stung yet again and again - by the GUI, by the multi-level stages that suddenly pull vicious levels on you as you're almost done and by the general obnociousness of the placement of pickups that is off just to throw off your aim... and then both the creator and kongregate compound this by insisting on 100.000000% completion... cretins.

A good game with nice graphics, good music and sfx, fun, absorbing and entertaining gameplay and a good concept, about the only thing that loses it the mark is the slightly cludgey keyboard interface and the sniper not seeming to work against those on other planets. Overall a nice game with a great concept and one I bothered going though to get all the awards even if kongregate didn't require it. To those who had problems understanding the game I'd say: DO THE TUTORIALS, it's all there, inlcuding telling you where the docs for the weapons where found (at use as requested).

A short but sweet game and rather fun in its way, there is some replayability in playing with how your worm might turnout - I had a highly defensive and dangerous (but slow) flying worm but others tell of speed demons so I guess it works for all styles. Very good implementation of the genre with good music and SFX, nice control responsiveness and gui. Overall a good game (with plenty of references for those who spot them amoungst the carnage!) Keep up the good work :)
