I heard good things about this game from a friend about all the ways you can approach a situation and wanted to like it, but it's WAY overrated. How did this get such good reviews? It's poorly designed and incredibly amateur. It tried to borrow some ideas from Deus Ex and put them in a randomly generated 2d game which is a good idea if you have the skill to pull it off.

The map generation and level chunks look awful and are poorly implemented. The "pixel art" is mediocre. Some stages have random effects happening the entire time. On one stage you suffer random every 10 seconds like getting paralyzed, dizzy, confused over and over or growing into a giant for no reason. On another missiles were raining from the sky the entire time. In my game they broke a random wall which caused the npcs to get hostile and killed me over it. That's terrible design.

It has a lot of items you can use in unique ways which is cool, but it wasn't enough to save the game imo. I was excited to try this, but personally i thought it was boring and infuriating.
