Really cool game, nice that you only have to pay half the price. I bought the download version at tuxgames for €9,- :)

Has anyone else here played it? What did you think?

The only two things that could be better in my opinion are
1) the irritating fact that you can not save the game during a mission
and
2) it is not very stable, it suddenly chrashed for me on somewhere between 5 and 10 occasions.

Still a cool game, lots of alien carnage, 8 out of 10 :popcorn:

I still at level 8 (I think) but this game is great.
You are 100% right on the things that could have been better, the game is not stable and you cannot save in the middle of a mission.

I dunno why, but I prefer using the first weapon (gun) most of the time, even on bigger enemies.
Once I'll finish I'll buy the second game.

After I patched my game it wont run from the shortcut in the taskbar. If I run it from the terminal I get the following;

shadowgrounds: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Now if I go the the directory where the game is at, the game runs fine. go figure lol

You'll probably have to make a launcher to work around this:


#! /bin/bash

cd /Location/of/game/
./nameofgamebinary
