I liked the graphics on this game, but the gameplay didn't really excite me that much. Might've been nice to be able to attack up/down...

So many dependencies. Argh! I hope the library was worth it from your end :)

OGRE, PyOGRE, zziplib, libXaw, DevIL. Didn't install nvidia's Cg as your game didn't seem to need it. Still stuck with some bizzard compilation error in OGRE, so I've not tried the game yet :(

not fun to play

Sorry, I can't get this game to run. It seems to depend on a lot of libraries, which I installed
from official websites. However, I had to give up trying when the requirements exceeded my
level of competence. Here is the error message. Creating resource group General Registering

Installing the latest version of DirectX does not help. Additionally, Direct3D does work on
my machine: I play several FPS games that use it. The problem must be with Ogre, but I lack the
skill to fix it.

Fun to play. Great use of billboard graphics. good mechanics.. and a complete game..

This game is perhaps a bit too simple. With more fluid controls the game might be quite a fun survival kind of game, but at it's present state it's not very much fun to play. The Steamech robot is very cute though, so thumbs up for that.

I couldn't get pyogre working on my system.

From the screenshots it looks really pretty.

If you get a win32 exe up somewhere, I might be able to play it.

Got an error: d3x9_27.dll was not found.

I couldn't get past this point, so couldn't play the game. I'll try to revisit my ranking later if I can get it to work on another machine.
