Wonderful new protagonist

Let me start by saying that the game is good and I've had a lot of fun playing it. This game brings back the nostalgia feeling. It constantly reminded me of the days when I was playing Duke Nukem as a kid, and loving every single thing about it. This game is the same as Duke... In fact it started out as a Duke Nukem game, but was later developed into a completely new IP. Also, as much as Duke is a great main character, Shelly "Bombshell" Harrison turned out to be such a great main character as well. I cannot wait to see what other stories Interceptor has to tell about Shelly. On the technical side, game has some bugs that need to be resolved, but the developer put much effort into fixing any issues that were present at the game's release, and I must say that the game runs smooth now, without any major issues. All in all, if you liked old shooters, with cheesy one liners, heavy metal music playing in the background and lots of explosions, you will feel at home with this game. A solid 4/5 and a wholehearted recommendation.

Decent game, terrible save system.

The game itself is good fun. Balancing leaves a lot to be desired with some weapons being brutally overpowered while others are nearly useless. But all in all, I had fun while playing. That is until... You die and have to reload a "checkpoint". Those are so terribly implemented that it was the most frequent reason why I stopped playing the game for the day. On the surface, they work fine. When you die (and you will, because falling out of bounds insta-kills you), you are put back to the place of the last checkpoint. Nothing wrong here. Except that: a) Currency pick-ups respawn, even those you previously got. Meaning you can just collect everything, go kill yourself/die and collect everything again. You can try avoiding those you already picked up once but it is both annoying (having to navigate in a way you don't accidentally pick one up) and sometimes impossible because currency can be in the way with no way around. I want to play the game with the intended amount of currency, not exploit by getting more every time I die. b) Sometimes when you die and load a checkpoint, the map you already explored becomes hidden again. Really annoying for tracking exploration. c) For some reason, after loading a checkpoint, it makes all nearby enemies immediately beeline towards you. Even those who you've not even seen yet. Some enemies also respawn. It just breaks the flow of the game so much, that I just fully restarted a level every time I died rather than loading a checkpoint. All of it could have been avoided by either implementing a proper checkpoint save system which remembers your progress, pick-ups, killed enemies etc. or just simply allowing quick saving. But I guess that was a no-go because of consoles... Simply put, my main annoyance was the absolutely horrible save system. I give it 3 stars mostly just because of that. It was extremely detrimental to my overall enjoyment of the game. If you can look past this, you can have fun for a few evenings.

Love it, despite its flaws

Like the title says, not perfect, but if you want to point and click the night away, this is a great game.
