This game has great grounds, but is a train wreck as is. Go the extra mile and fix these things to get 5 stars: Scrap the stupid 4 door button riddle altogether, complete and annoying waste of time. Make auto fire for the basic pistol, no more button mashing. Maybe also increase rate of fire while at it. I don't know what type the third weapon is supposed to be, bolt action rifle or what, but make it much faster and auto fire. Increase the assault rifle power in order not to be weaker than the pistol at least. Add a regeneration for health, at least to 20% or so, while the rest has to be healed at the terminals. Do the same for lamp energy or scrap the limited power altogether. Increase the power of the light a bit, too. I understand that You propably meant this to be a horror and survival type of game, which requires a cetain difficulty and sense of dread in order to be good; and You surely didn't totally fail at that. Just don't make it super annoying.

Pretty much all comments seconded here, barring possibly autofire. Yes, the pistol should keep firing if you hold the button down, but we don't need buttonless firing which is what people usually mean when they're using that word around here so... yeah. Seriously though, that flashlight is so uselesss even Sadtroll doesn't quite encompass the lame. C'mon ffs. Last bit, while more minor still annoyed me - it's often not clear exactly where you need to interact to get something done. Had to dick about with the first door for 30 seconds before I figured out it most be the random side blotch of light next to it that did it. Simplify already and just let us interact with the whole door, computer, whatever.

Other than the fact that you sometimes get an army dumped on you this game is amazing.
