A very mediocre game that feels very rushed.

A pretty boring game that’s seems quite rushed. I can tell that the developer put very little effort into making this and didn’t care about the quality of the game.

One problem with this game is that it has pretty bad controls. Like you have to tilt the joystick all the way to get the character to move left and right, shoot up or down in the air, and crouch down, which can be quite a pain. This make the game even more stressful and hard to dodge enemy attacks Especially during times when a few enemies are throwing bombs and another enemy is shooting at you and you need to either crouch to avoid being shot by the enemy, jump over the enemies shots or move away from bombs that are being thrown towards you.

Another problem with this game is that the level design is pretty bad to be honest. Normally, Metal slug games have pretty good level design that make it not too hard to beat the levels but for this game, the levels are just ridiculously hard. It’s just not the right amount of difficulty.

This game struggles to have a good balance of difficulty. Like, there’s enemies everywhere and it’s hard to dodge a lot of the enemies attacks which can make the game really stressful and hard. The boss at the end of each level is a big waste of time. The boss at the end of each level has a pretty hard boss pattern that makes it really hard and stressful to kill. Like, the bosses attacks don’t give you enough time to react which can make it quite hard to dodge most of the time due to how bad the controls are. The levels themselves aren’t that great either. The levels could be bigger with better enemy placements, bosses and better level design.

Either way, this is a very lame game with little effort put into it.

A very bad metal slug clone

It seems like the game metal slug has been copied and the artwork has been pushed through some upscaler. A terrible game that should be avoided. Poor art, sub par sound and seems like a waste of time after you have played metal slug series.
