In this 3D shoot 'em up, you play Kurt, and your job is to save the world. Aliens have sent 8 giant fortresses to destroy earth. You run and jump through 6 missions of strange 3D worlds and kill the "Stream Riders" with your machine gun arm. Precise platform jumps are part of the challenge.

Trivia

Another possibility for the name MDK comes from a 1973 record from a german progressive rock band called Magma. The name of the album is Mekanik Destruktiw Kommandoh (Mechanic Destructive Commando).

Also, there is a hip-hop artist named MDK, but I don't know what the reason for.
