The game was brutal I guess that's what happens when you have a spatan vs modern solders. I wish I can recharge the shield otherwise I just die very quickly. The art was great and the character animation was good too. It's a shame that you couldn't finish the game."},{"author_name":"TheFlyingSatan","author_uid":"111418","time":"Aug 30, 2016 @ 11:44am","epoch":1472557140,"text":"A few beeps and boops for sound effects, a separate sprite for dead enemies and a restart button would've gone a long way, but the core game itself plays very nicely.
