“it was good at first i am sad to say not now now it has only 3 stages with predictable leveling even within the procedual generated leveling its just empty experience all in all”
“It's hard to recommend, the gun play feels kinda bland, the shots are a little off and the game play feels inconsistent. You run out of bullets very fast with the pistol with ammo drops being random, weapon drops are far and few between…”
