I like the game, but the text is almost impossible to read. I don't have the game fullscreen, but would there be anything I could do to read it better. Otherwise, probably 4.5-5 star game!

You can try the Steam version, which is also free. Though some people also have trouble with the text on that too. It's a bug, I'm not sure what causes it. I've tried to figure it out, but I am apparently too dumb.
Could not read text and the change from the eye to the gun could be as easy as right click and left click but it is not. Loved what you guys were aiming at. Great concept. Crashed like three times also.

Could you e-mail me what rig you're using? I'm trying to figure out what causes the text bug.
Game isn't too bad but the gameplay is basically read the text and click some guys on the screen. Given the genre it is categorized into I expected more brain work to solve it.

A middling review for a middling game. Thanko!
So literally the whole game is buildup to one shot, and then it instantly cuts out once you take the shot? Why? Are you imitating hollywood movies with ambiguous ends? Cause this is just bad writing. Other than that the game was good, but that's a pretty big flaw.
I really love the game idea, and the atmosphere is very nice. I very much enjoyed the backstory in the menus and the observations of the environment. I have a lot of trouble firing my gun correctly, though. You have to jerk the mouse, which makes sense on paper, but becomes a pain in practice. Observing things becomes accidentally pulling and pulling doesn't happen when you're trying to. It's very frustrating. I just can't get it to read me correctly. The first fight took at least fifteen deaths, and I still haven't even gotten a crosshair on the bounty hunter.

Sorry it was not working well for you.
