Hmm, I think this game is an example for the kind of thing jayenkai wrote about in one of his game threads. It's not that bad, but you might get bored and quit before it even starts to get interesting. First few levels are just a waste of time, because it's nearly impossible to die and no one needs to play that kind of tutorial levels over and over again. Would be much better if you could skip the first few levels and start at level five or six.

Rest of the game is ok and I have to say that I like the graphical design. Music and sounds are a bit monotonous though. And shooting down the enemies is a mess and most of the time I played without even trying to do so (you won't get much points for that anyway).

It isn't bad for a coffeebreak game, but I don't think I will return to that game very often.
