Heh, I forgot all about the Health Pack until now, lol. I later found out that you could get up to 50 HP, too – I had 35 HP at the end of the game.

Chase: It definitely got to a decent difficulty level later. I think, however arrogantly, that I’m pretty good at platform shooters, so my opinion is likely skewed. Still, like Chris said, it’s really not a detractor; in fact, since the game encourages exploration, it would probably be worse if it were too difficult.

@Chase
I think it was one of the easiest platforming games I’ve ever played. You can just use the standard gun, then later, the jetpack-machine gun and own everything. Despite this, I believe this adds to the allure of the game, because it’s a freeware title that can be easily completed, leaving no excuse not to play it. Anthony of Destructoid noted it was challenging as well: different strokes.

I will say the last boss gauntlet was very, very hard, however, especially if you didn’t save your health pack.

Really? Man, perhaps my video game skills are failing me because I thought it was, overall, a pretty challenging game.

After reading your review, I decided to give it a shot. So far I’m having fun, but nothing angers me more than a combination of the words “LEVEL” and “DOWN”.

Having finished the game about ten minutes ago…I have to say the only thing I could dislike about the game is that it rode the easy mode train straight through the game. But, damn, this is a good game. VERY good game.

It really is a fantastic freeware title. I’m always critical of perfect scores but it does reflect the sheer amount of effort put into this title.

I’d say it’s the best freeware game ever made. It was so good that it’s currently being remade for WiiWare.

Wow, A an overall 10. We don’t give those out too often. This must be definitely worth it.
