As vast alien mining cities suck the power and minerals from every major metropolis on Earth simultaneously, time is of the essence as millions of civilians are expiring by the second.
Using your stealth parachute and the now infamous "Zooming" head-mounted sniper weapon, your task is to slip in undetected from the sky, seek out and remove the alien leader by any means. Fully reactive “smart enemies” think, listen and communicate in a calculated assault on your life. Think fast and act faster against the most sophisticated artificial enemy intelligence of its time.
The main objective of the game is to basically shoot everything that moves and everything means every alien you will come across. The one and only way to stop the alien invasion is to kill'em all by any means necessary, such as the smallest nuclear bomb, surfboard-like jet or bomber plane. Your goal is simple - repulse the alien invasion and save the Earth... almost single handedly.

Why buy on GOG.COM?

So I love this game and grew up playing it on one of those transparent green Macs. Got it for my PC but does anyone know how to make the controls smooth? like it's so glitchy and occasionally when there are a lot of explosions it smooths out but only briefly. I've tried looking at the mouse and keyboard settings but nothing helps. Any suggestions?
I'd like to start by saying I have very little nostalgia towards MDK. I played the game for about 10 minutes when it originally came out, but that's it.
Having said that, I find this little gem absolutelly brilliant. Controls require some tweaking (i believe they were originally set up to be played exclusively on keyboards, and mouse conrols are truly bizzare, with Y axis controlling the forward movement) but other than that, the game is amazing. It still looks great thanks to some truly excellent art direction (something that in my opinion have been lost in the sequel), plays great thanks to suprising diversity in gameplay (and I say that in 2018, it must have been absolutely mindboggingly awesome back in 1997), frantic pacing and nicely balanced challenge.
I've hear that originally the game had no saving whatsoever, which must have been pretty brutal, but now it supports quicksaving and quicloading, so the problem no longer exists.
I can't reccoment MDK enough, it's truly a classic in my book, I've beaten it 3 times so far.
Fast paced and frantic with lots of little humorous moments, interesting characters and level designs. Good game play mechanics with some neat and novel ideas, and a great soundtrack too. However, there isn’t much of a plot, the game’s not very long, and the controls are a bit awkward, especially during the platform sequences.
7/10
I do not own this game on GOG yet, but plan on buying it. MDK was the first PC game I played on the IMAC G3. I absolutely loved this game and played countless hours of it. can't remember how many times i beat it but man this brings back memories. it's this very game that got me into gaming on the computer.
