Fun concept and the looks and sounds really fit the whole idea, but I found it impossible to play - movement was super slippery, aiming anything was hard and the time limits way too strict. If the controls were more polished and the time limit wasn't as harsh, I really do believe this could be a really fun little game, but as it is I couldn't really play it long enough to give it a proper chance.
