My childhood was pretty much all flash games and thing-thing-likes were elite, from what i've played, i can tell this is a solid base for what could be an amazing game that could fill that thing thing shaped hole in a lot of people's brains, I've played for about 4 hours and had an absolute blast, but i also wanted to pull my hair out at times.
The weapons feel great, according to the developer, this game was originally a weapons simulator, and it shows, the gun assets are clean, the audio is top-notch and the attention to detail is brilliant.
The character design teleports me right back to sitting in front of a silver 4:3 VGA monitor on a pentium machine back in 2010, could do with some more variety tho.
The game suffers from some issues at ultrawide resolutions (I played at 32:9), you can see enemies spawning in and they won't shoot you from that far away, so it can be quite cheesable at times, but it's playable.
The game can get a bit laggy once you start getting a bit trigger happy at a large group of enemies.
There are other issues that are just early access teething issues, so i won't bother putting them here.

The game is very early, it doesn't have a lot of content and has quite a few issues ('tis the early access way), but from what i've gathered from talking to the developer, he seems dead set on creating a masterpiece, and i'm all here for it, and for the 6 or so bucks the game costs, more than worth it.
