Brilliant, really feels like a C64 game. Challenging as hell just like the old days. (Except the old classics were probably a *lot* harder). Might check out the full game.
This game is saying: 'haha, I'm making you play a mind-numbingly boring game under the pretense there is some kind of 'meaning' or 'secret message'...'
Repeat after me: Games are not stories. This is the result of forgetting this rule.
Crap gameplay, 1-dimensional story.
You want a platformer? Get Mario. Want a good story? Get K-Pax.
Good, but ruined by bugs - one where the enemy base disappeared which wasn't that bad but then the next mission none of my men would attack when I gave an attack order. They just stood there.
