"That said, this is pretty nice, but for some reason my gun keeps aiming up and down and I don't know what I'm doing to make it do that. Oh, well, I'll keep playing anyway."The game uses yer mouse to aim like it was a 3D game. Just in case you didn't know that. I find the mouse aim to be rather detrimental to the normal pacing of a 2D shooter of this type but the games alright. Soldat deals with mouse aim better but then it's not a clone of Contra, or Metroid.

I wonder if the 2d version has autoaiming just like the 3d version does...Ever try to shoot beside an alien instead of the alien itself? Hard to do when Halo guides you bullets to their targets.

This needs a Mac version. My PC is too old to run that.All of you need to play more Marathon.

"Torrent made... everyone seed as much as you can!"A torrent for a 20MB game? It only takes a few min on a slow-high speed connection. What do you need a torrent for?

Yea, this isn't so hot. Many much better side-scrolling shooters out there. Only appeal is that it has pretty Halo sprites. That's about it. Maybe multiplayer is fun..?

"Great game! I only wish there was an option for using a gamepad instead of a mouse. I have a logitech dual action gamepad that would work nice with this."altonmanTry using Phatsoft's JoyMouse and Joy-to-Key .
