Arcade cover shooter inspired by Time Crisis, Metal Slug and 80's action heros! He's got an itchy trigger finger, some scratchy stubble, and a fondness for shooting dudes in the face. Run and gun your way through gorgeous 3D environments as you embark on a mission to rescue your kidnapped girlfriend from the Forces of Evil.
You take control of the titular character, a trigger-happy commando, and must shoot your way through waves of enemy forces to rescue your kidnapped girlfriend. The gameplay involves popping out from behind cover to take down foes that appear, with your character automatically moving from cover to cover.
Reviewers praise the game's tight and satisfying shooting mechanics. The mouse-based aiming allows for precise control, and the game provides clear visual and audio feedback when your shots land. Enemies react realistically when hit, and the variety of weapon types - from pistols to sniper rifles to bazookas - encourages experimenting with different targeting strategies.
A key part of the gameplay loop is the scoring system. You earn points for chaining together kills, getting headshots, deflecting enemy projectiles, and other skillful actions. This creates an addictive "high score" mentality, leading many players to replay levels repeatedly to optimize their scores and unlock new weapons and upgrades.
As you progress, you can spend in-game currency to unlock a wide variety of new weapons, character costumes, and other upgrades in the game's "Armory". The different weapon types all have their own strengths and scoring considerations, further encouraging experimentation.
In addition to the main story campaign, the game offers several other mode options to keep things fresh. These include an Arcade mode, a Time Bomb mode with time-based challenges, and a Survival mode. The different modes give players more ways to engage with the core shooting mechanics.
