“I would LOOOVE to give my childhood game a thumbs up BUT. The Goldium version has this bug that whenever you press ESC... it will just end the game... And it seems this is reported all the way back to 2014... so i dont expect to see a fix…”
“Game does not work, hasn't for months. Why have the devs not fixed this? Why hasn't steam taken it off the site? Are you just allowed to sell broken games on here?”
