Well, it's out. Personally I'd give it a stamp of hate if I could, the controls are slow and annoying, and more often than not I keep sliding for some reason (because the controls have b0rked rather than it being Gordon on ice) into those oh so original bottomless holes of death. Rubbish.

My computer locked up when i tried to exit. I was in an area where i could not see myself. My task manager shut it down but i still could not escape the game. I dont think i'll be going back.

I liked it, personally. Simple, but fun. Nothing I'll play for hours on end, but definitely good for killing some time now and then. Like I have time to kill.
I love the dialogue, heh. [addsig]

I played it. it's very hard to get used to.
however, I played a flash game like this once (except the bullets hit exactly at the crosshair ONLY) It was pretty awesome. I wish I saved the link, Vash sent it to me.
Anyway.
Lep, that "ice" effect seemed to happen if your computer started getting bogged down. (it happened a couple times to me).
I stopped playing when I got stuck in the wall :
However, its pretty awesome for flash (but the other game I played had very good gibbing and such.) [addsig]

Try turning down the settings. Flash is a resource hog. [addsig]

lol it's my PC getting bogged down playing a 2D platform game?!
I was playing the old gem Abuse the other day, it's about 10 times as big with more enemies/weapons, is about 1/10th the download and, er, more fun and never slowed down my 486.

| Well, what do ya know? Abuse is free-ware now. DLing it now, going to play later. I always love a good platformer. And it's only 2.9 megs. |
make that 39 megs.
And i think it's a bit buggy ... also, the hud falls off my screen ... no option to change resolution, either ...

I know what flash is, but it switches from resolution, aye ? So I should be able to control that ... anyway, it's a fun game, I like the voices ... especially that sound remix when you're in the menu ... freaky ![]()

Good platformers are good (deep huh?) I just played it ... kinda cute.... kinda goes beyond the word "pathetic". kinda cute though listening to barney bitch and moan about being 2d, and about Gorden's M.I.T.
Yippie Ki Yay!
