An interesting idea... Though I am not sure the \"Simulation\" is the right word to use. Maybe \"Mission\" would be better.

Fun, but it would really help if the enemies had different graphics. Just to tell which of the enemies are actually new ones.\n\nAnd the gun upgrades are... well... the stock gut is pretty fittingly weaksauce. But even tier 1 gun is insanely good oneshotting omst of enemies and having a decent fire rate to deal with everyone non-convinced by one shot...\n\nMoving to Tier 2 makes shooting even more satisfying... but Tier 3... just doesn't feel like an upgrade at this point.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Lyrcaxis","author_uid":"1056708","time":"2018-04-26T22:27:03Z","epoch":1524781623,"modified":1524781623,"text":"Quite fun!
