I've been looking forward to this for a while. I'll definitely play it all the way through and give a more full review later. However, I have to say that the first time I stepped into the metal lava, the game adapted a motion blur effect and the fps dropped to around 5 or 10.

You can turn that off; I think it's incompatible with certain video cards.

Anyway, it's a fantastic game as I've said many times before. We're lucky you give these things away.

I didn't care for the preceding two, but I love this one. Probably because all those different Ogmos let you get more creative when playing a level, plus you can go back and collect stuff on other levels if you're frustrated... plus I like the new graphics and music a whole lot. In general it just seems a little kinder and gentler to me, as well, which is a good thing. And still not very gentle.

Am sorta stuck on 4-2, but I think I can work it out. And I got perfect on every level in stage 1!

In short, the most time I've spent playing a game in a long while. Hats (and there are a lot of them) off to you, YMM.

This game is... well, I'm having trouble thinking of the right word. Shizzmazing? Fanfreakingtastic?

No, for reals, this game has one of the highest fun to complexity ratios I've seen in a long time. Which is to say it is a lot of fun. And not very complex, comparatively. It's just a great concept and great execution. I love the way the cops have no qualms about murdering civilians. :P And the graphics and music are both of extremely high quality - love the pseudo 3D, and the whole retro-style secret agent music is very well-done.

It's not a bad game. Certainly more entertaining than I expected it to be, though to be honest, that's not saying that much. It's a nice way to kill fifteen minutes or so, and it's quite well put together (the graphics are goof, and so is the music, for MIDI at least), but it remains a very, very simple game, with little variety.

I like how everything speeds up, including the backgrounds, as you get to later levels.

Beginning to see the big picture now. I just tried a 1600x1200 version:

It looks sort of like a map of Europe. Weird stuff.
