You wake up in a high security fortress. In this futuristic science fiction game you must disable security computer terminals in order to escape.

if the game is taking a while to load maybe watching the play-through or visiting my profile might ease the time.

I love this far too much to give it less than five stars; but the truth is the gameplay mechanics are a little too clumsy for five stars. Options between mouse/touchpad and keyboard controls would be a very nice start; making the motion a little more controllable. The flag-by-flag mechanic is interesting, but honestly, it's a little annoying with certain mice. (Mouses? I don't know if the plural extends to the cybernetic mouse)
However, the concept is excellent, and the gameplay isn't half-bad. I enjoyed myself!

Honestly, it's not nearly as bad as all these reviews make it out to be.

I dig the 3-D world and the fact that you have to explore the areas to get to the terminals. However, I do find, much like others before me did, that the game experience is a little hollow, and it feels like an alpha build rather than a finished game.

Here are some suggestions to make this more interesting:

-Have the terminal unlocking procedure be more than just a click. Maybe include some kind of abstract puzzle that you need to solve, nothing too complicated. You could also have clues hidden through the stage on the walls and whatnot that would help unlock the terminals. Mix it up a little so we can actually feel smart while playing this.
-Add some hazards. It doesn't necessarily have to be monsters or enemy soldiers, but you could add something like fire fields, acid pools, or bottomless pits that you have to avoid flagging yourself through.
-Honestly, given the Doom-esque look of this game, it'd be nice if each stage had it's own music, instead of it all being the same. I can guarantee that you'll get more love from the players if you do this.
-If you can help it, make the controls more conventional. I'd like to have total freedom of movement, but otherwise, focus on the above things first.

I await your next offering with due anticipation.

Disappointing. I can't figure out how to move forward, side to side or back. I can only swivel around in circles. I have hit every key on the keyboard, the right and left mouse buttons.... I can't figure it out. There are no instructions on controls that I have been able to find in the "instructions" or main menu area. It looks like it could have been fun.... but I can't seem to play it.

You have to click the flags.

Ok -this could be a great game but the controls are so frustrating . I spent most of my time parked up against the wall . It feels like I got stuck in a mine craft version game of Doom but without the monsters . Nice effort but it feels unfinished.

Is this even possible? It takes so long just to turn 180 degrees that you run out of time before you've done much of anything. Definitely impossible on a first try, MAYBE after your 100th or so you can remember the correct series of clicks... at which point it takes longer to go through the motions than actually figure it out. Not fun in the slightest.

oladitan responds:

estimate the frame rate your game is playing. I suggest that you update the flash player or something.
