i like this game, believe it or not, for what it aspires to be- a survival horror game for the GBC. if only the fighting portions weren't so poorly done and hard to control. and that god-awful two-tone music that was everywhere. these environments looked a lot better than that other canceled GBC port of Resident Evil, and supposedly that took up so much memory/processing that they couldn't put another animated character on top of it to fight. thus, you had to exit to a combat screen where they set it up in such a way that i felt the tank controls and poor aiming ruined any fun that might have been had. hard to hit the enemies but if you run out of ammo you die, and you move so damn slowly that you can't really pick up any more ammo. not good. you can at least pretend you're playing a survival horror game during the exploration sections.
Thank You for the detailed info, I did not know about the cancelled RE game on GBC but I will look up some info on it. Regarding the Alone In the dark on GBC is not a bad game at all, except the horrible music. I enjoyed my time with it.
