Great effort, love to see that the game preserved in this way.

However, for me, the nostalgia wore off quickly. I no longer have the feeling of immersion I used to have when I was younger; I've become numb to the magic. What I see is pathfinding, a graphics engine, a sound player...

It's because you need more tesla coils, brrzzing.

Jokes aside, after reading a few of the official tounament strategies, its where the magic disappeared for me - its so much weight towards rushing over the enemy that wins every time, it kinda lost its bliss.

Still, sometimes its fun to just play with some like-minded friends in a multiplayer game
