░ Gameplay
Everything is done by typing: moving, shooting, dashing, jumping... Goal you ask? Escape this hell of a city. Work your way through a series of serious-not-so-serious story driven puzzles, each of them asking to be solved in different ways:
- By using... you know... brains I guess;
- Break things or dash through them;
- Jump through windows or to evade enemies...
- Shoot the hell out'o them, place traps, mines, and whatnot.
Oh, didn't i tell you? Abilities are limited. Enemies will be pursuing you. Security cameras will be on. So there's that.
░ A shit-ton of abilities
- Shoot a door ? It breaks. What if there's fuel in the way ? Big boom.
- Too small to fit ? Type "alias", and replace commands by shorter ones;
- No more ammo ? Just jump over an enemy;
░ A 3 dimension world.. in 2D.
Yes, there are stairs. So thats to consider if you want to solve some difficult situations. Basements? Yes sir. What you use'em for is up to you.
