Gameplay is a little too simple though. Also, I feel that the goal takes a little too much to reach, and the fact that dying brings you back to the beginning is not necouraging me to play more :\/\r<br\/>\r<br\/>But the explosion and the scenery in the complex is quite badass honestly."},{"author_name":"Buko-Studios","author_uid":"45152","time":"Apr 20, 2015 @ 1:23pm","epoch":1429535880,"text":"Would be a great minigame to a visual novel, definitely the start of an interesting dystopia.
