I hope you do continue to work on it as has quite a lot of potential. The game play does need a lot of work as right now you just hire enough people to go out on missions then keep re-using them. Probably should have missions taking a while so you need multiple missions on the go so you aren't just re-using key people. Likewise, missions should not always return everybody so that you need to keep hiring. Equipment doesn't seem to do anything that I can tell. The story as part of the missions was very interesting, with the "Game not finished yet" message being both funny and disappointing as I was hoping to finish the game."},{"author_name":"har_g","author_uid":"18614","time":"Dec 29, 2012 @ 11:23pm","epoch":1356823080,"text":"Spelchan..
