When I saw this game appear on Steam, a long forgotten memory came back to me! This is actually my very fist video game! I remember when my parents bought me my first PC, this "new game" was delivered with the PC. I didn't like it because it was too difficult (for a 9 year old). The cutscenes are excellent, beautiful cartoony style, but the gameplay itself is a very bland railshooter ... which is fine, I guess ... but if you don't care to play this game (which is a challenge if approached without nostalgia glasses), then just watch the cutscenes on YouTube. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2976471319 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2536351711 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=275084180332 found this helpful
Rail shooter with buggy controls4 found this helpful
This is a great on rails shooter from the mid 90s with great cut scenes and an epic anti hero hero story it's like waterworld but everthing is like futuristic sci fi under the sea, i missed it back in the day as a teenager buti'm glad i found this jem!
The cutscenes are very entertaining to watch it is like a movie, the gameplay on most of the levels is good it just takes a bit of time to get used to them, but the level where you are a top-down submarine or something is so buggy because the delay on where you move your mouse is so delayed, overall this game is definetely worth a try.
Gud gamma!
