What players say
Players are mostly negative about this budget sci-fi shooter. Complaints center on the brief sprint, bullet sponge enemies, no aiming reticle, frustrating checkpoint system, and very samey grey visuals. A few mention interesting worldbuilding and a Half-Life feel, but most call it boring, buggy, and unfinished.
