It reminded me more of Smash TV… but I love Crimsonland, so I’m immediately piqued. C’mon 6PM, I want to go home and play :P

Ultimately, there is a shareware cap in place. After you murder your way through 5-6 of the main plot levels, the next one demands level 6 to continue, and the level is limited to 4 in the demo. Of course you can still play all those non plot levels, which are probably randomly generated, but they are really just fillers, designed for the grind hungry to refill on ammo and level up, for whatever that’s worth. Running through the levels with a Zweihänder killing everything in your way is fun, but I won’t buy this game. Something is missing for me. Can’t say what though.

Nah, the leveling-up system is not my cup of tea. The character only gets better statistics – you don’t get anything really new. I judge an RPG by how different will the characters be after a couple of levels. So, your character gets more loot, mine has more life. woot.

The game it most reminds me of is Crimsonland, same kind of power-ups and skills. Though they’ve added a lot more story and glossiness.

Reminded me more of a freeware game called Fiend.
Hm, looks nice, but not my type of game.

Jets n Guns was brilliant – well worth a try for the shooter crowd. Nothing spectacular to look at, and the demo’s quite easy but as you hit the later levels you really have to think about your weapon load-out if you’re going to make it through alive.

Having been reminded how much I enjoyed that, I’m looking forward to this when it finally downloads (50k/sec!?).

Aye it seems to have the same kinda running/ turning about mechanics. Those splat patterns are damn similar too. Although won’t there be a huge number of games that have the same style? I’m sure I’ve seen at least once before.

I see what you mean, Baltech. Exactly like GTA2. Especially with that flamethrower graphic and the blood splat patterns. Electro-gun too, I see.

Is it just me or does this game look a lot like GTA2?

Best thing about the game is the spooky faces, I was intrigued and thought it was some kind of Sinistar thing (RUN COWARD!), where some horrible boss was going to come. Slightly disappointed that nothing seemed to happen. Are those spooky and disturbing faces related to anything in game?

Rake in Grass are pretty cool. I liked their last game, a shooter called Jets N’ Guns
