Had a quick go before going to bed. You seriously need to get a spelling checker out though as nearly every screen that has text on it has badly mis-spelt words.

I'll have a proper go tomorrow.

Pretty good. Shame aliens can't shoot upwards if you are on a ledge.

I also got an error on 2nd level as I was going through a door - File does not exist at line 464

I Like aliens lazer guns. Good use of them attached to alien animation.

I finshed game by killing big green alien but no congratulations screen! Just ended up wandering around last level with nothing to do.

Also, you are writing some diagnostic coordinates on last level, suggest you turn this off.

PLEASE fix all the spelling errors as it is really quite bad. Are you English?

Options screen
--------------
UES = USE
Defalt = Default

First Notepad
-------------
day = days
whit = with
you = your
abroad = aboard
What = what
it = its
craw = crew

There are few others but these are the main ones that you see the most.
Keypad
------
UES = USE

Objects
-------
LOCKET = LOCKED
Plamer Can = Plasma Can

2nd Note
--------
I'v = I'm
need get = need to get

Buttons
-------
Safty = Safety

This is a really good game. Presume last level inspired by Half-life

Unfortunately, I got a run time error when I tried to pick up some sort of green ray gun that was located on top of a colored crate. It said the image could not be loaded.

I have the exact same problem like that guy, the floor/walls are black

I have a geforce4 ti 4600 128mb and I wont update my videodrivers (these are stable in all my games, the latest will crash Morrowind, and older ones will display flashing textures in stronghold/neverwinter nights)

Bad luck for me I guess

im using DarkBASIC classic now, im going to buy the PRO version soon. I currently have 3 projects, DarkTIMES, MvS Matrix Editor and Texture Maker/Generator (MvsME saves mapfiles in a .MvS file, and can only be opened in the editor and in DarkTIMES, it will be open-source however)

When I tried to beat the second level, I got a file does not exist error at line 400 something. You need more sound and music, other than that, it was fun. Kinda reminded me of Blake Stone

You're English? Or have you just not lived here for that long? Or was "I am english" meant to be "I am not english" ? Ah well, downloading right now , looks good...

EDIT

This is a nice solid game, pretty smooth movement, although I get stuck on corners sometimes with the sliding collision. Another spelling mistake I noticed is the "SODE" machine should be "SODA" machine.

Do you bite your thumb at me sir?

Dr O:
lots of spelling mistakes, some words may be properly spelled for another word (just not the one you want)!
to make sure that your context is right, try dictionary.com

if you try to load a game without saving one the program gets an error and ends.

your game looks cool though and has come together more than mine has yet!

EDIT - I installed the patch too.

programmers need to "gorilla-proof" their software. Part of testing should be deliberately trying things to cause the software to crash.
lol I'll have to check out the latest version.
