Steel storm game review

The bosses weapons are basically a dual stream of rapid firing red pulses, which would be great if that wasn't the exact same weapon all the enemies before it had.

The bosses health is about right, but the size of the boss makes it off balance. I mean, I let the cyberdemon by as a great boss, and it had more health than these guys do. But it was WAY bigger, making it easier to chisel that health away.

Music works well, and goes with the graphics which are superb.

The bosses are not done well, but there are only few. That's the point of the bosses though isn't it? My complaint is mainly the bosses, but also that this game didn't really try to stick out. I'm looking forward to the final game, I could pre-order, but I generally only buy finished games.
