a game so good you wish you could write 4 positive reviews for it. the design and polish is immaculate. oozing with influence, an arcade score system. there is really nothing negative I can say. paulo lopes is surely out there doing great things, whether that is intercourse with his partner or making more games, he is either instantly hired somewhere big or leading a charge somewhere else.

the immediate influence I felt was virtua cop style threat system, stay in line of sight long enough and you will get hit, deal with the threat or lose line of sight quickly and I don't know if I want to credit trespasser with free aim because there are other examples but its possible it was the first. according to the giant bomb thing I found about this game I guess it was a cheat closer to release but once things finalized it looks like its now a menu option. I turned it on because I love free aim but it does make the game quite a bit harder, there is an aiming ability when using free aim akin to goldeneye, plants you and you get a cursor crosshair to move around. game is probably a bit easier with free aim off.

if I were to complain it would be that this game never got some basic infinite style horde mode or whatever and if we had a level editor and workshop this games legacy would be entirely cemented. we would have entire speedrun communities not just around single maps but the entire universe of possible maps that would open the game up to. oh well. give it a whirl whatever it's free.

when thinking about this game I always confuse the title with get to the orange door, its the aesthetic and similar verbage. pretty different games though
