Game description:

You are the only one left after a bloody alien attack and now with your weapon store emptied and destroyed you have to traverse over five levels of terrain to escape the aliens. Armed with just a gun you must shoot the enemy who are attacking you with your weapons, but you can take cover behind tree's, fences and houses. Gun Law is based on the arcade game Commando as you move vertically up each level. The game is viewed from above at an elevated angle and you use a joystick to control your soldier.


What I think:

This game has SO many flaws, that I don't know where to start...but I have to start somewhere, so let's go!:

1.) No diagonal movement. Only left, right, up, down
2.) Way too many obstacles.
3.) Anything can kill you if you are ABOVE it. Don't believe me? Watch till the end of the game footage here.
4.) You can die immediately after you respawn (shown in the video)
5.) It's a horrible rip-off of a great game: Commando


Seriously, the more I played it, the more I hated it!
