Thoroughly enjoyed this for what it was. 5/5. 4 directional fire would have been nice. 9 directional (oh boy! Contra 1986!)...anyways, well done game, fun, quick, easy.

Really a great game! Controls are Very smooth, simple concept but fun and unique-ish story plot. I'm a big fan! Wish Kongregate gave this more badges. Better than that Blood Chronicles mess :]

I just finished the game. I really enjoy it, though the game does not have a very pleasant ending. it made me freeze for a few seconds after watching it. I wish it could be better. Anyway, this game is awesome, and you get a 5/5 from me, BerzerkStudio

Needs the option to aim upwards. Otherwise it's pretty solid, rapidly changing directions in a dark area can be a bit disorienting though.

What do you need to do to get higher rank? Kill everything on a level, finish quickly, or some combination of objectives?

Skip the dash suit. It doesn't control well, has a tendency to activate when you don't want it to, and honestly, and there weren't any situations where I genuinely felt it was needed. Beyond that, however, I felt this was a really solid game. Not perfect, but a load better than most of the platform shooters Kongregate has to offer. 4/5.

Metroid!! :D
We've seen some good Mario- and Zelda-like games around here, it was time someone made a Metroid-like flash game. 5/5 Only one left is Castlevania for my Nintendo top 4: the best 4 NES games, who made it to about all the other Nintendo platforms. ;)

Clear unifying vision, coherent story, consistent gameplay, no weird bullshit.... This is a model of its type.
I regret that I have but one badge to earn for this game.

i would have much loved an option to stick around for the explosion, leaving no remanents of the virus to get back to humanity

Great game. However I experienced a reproducible bug: At the beginning of Crew Quarters you drop down and pass a door that does not open, but if you jump toward the door you can end up behind the scenery and unable to continue.

Great story, but the interface sucks. double jump very often doesn't work - just died in the acid because of this, Shooting only left or right - well this is a decsion which makes it similar to really old games like silk worm. It's ok, but there somehow is a feeling of inflexibility, stiffness?, like for example those indiana jones 3d games compared to lara croft, who was moving really smoothly.

Oh god...oh god...They've invaded my DREAMS! I murdered them in a game but...AHH! Great game, but now I'm scared out of my mind, and yes. I have, in fact, had dreams of The Yellow.

I really liked it! The game feels like a mix between Dead Space and the 2D Metroids, which are both some of my favourite games. I'd love to play a sequel of this one day!

Powered-armor space marines, space travel utilizing an alternate dimension which has the nasty side effect of turning men into grotesque monstrosities obsessed with the God of that realm and oddly out-of-sync with normal reality... Anyone else getting a Warhammer 40K "Warp" vibe?

really, really enjoyed playing this game. I usually hate the run+gun platformers, but this was well made and had a very enjoyable story. 5 stars, my friends.

So here I played this game again and I still find it excellent.
Really hard core story and graphics. (almost to hard for kids)
It is a bit to easy especially the end bosses.
The constant upgrades make you to strong.
Instead of getting Achievements for upgrades there should be badges for NOT upgrading and still winning.
I like the simple controls and firing.
The game plays like a short movie. Again, excellent work on the graphics.
Improvements aside from nerfing the gun and resistance could be stronger opponents that appear less frequent to give a deeper feeling of single opponent horror but also a few massive enemy swarms for the OMGWTF effect.
Gamers Tip: The Experimental Armor is not needed and only makes the game harder because the rush power will cause more trouble then it is worth.

Fun game until you die and have to go all the way back to the beginning. There is no point in fighting anything just try to run past as much as you can!

Did not die even once. This possibly is because I killed everything I saw which got me to quite a high level. I also got every pickup. the power ups are very strong.
