Long and boring.

The Good
Well the setup for the game is pretty good. It's funny, the game creates a really neat atmosphere and well as you'll read on doesn't really do anything with it. The weapon choices are pretty great too. There's a selection here that would put some FPS's to shame.

The Bad
Most obvious thing I didn't like about the game though is the progression. There's 73 levels to the game but you'll see everything you're going to see by the 10th. There's a long way to go to find out there's nothing to see here. I mean there's about two new props you'll maybe see by the end but the 2nd last new prop will show up on the 72nd level! The game is likely to be compared to the Alien Shooter series but those games did huge masses of monsters and had pretty good progression through varied backgrounds to play. This is just really long and in the end pointless.

I also didn't like the way the game aimed. Whereas Alien shooter seemed to be a bit more analogue in the way you could aim this game has 8 directions you can actually shoot in so often times you'll miss because you simply cannot point where you want. When 150 monsters are running at you you want to be really precise.

The Bottom Line
The game starts off good but it's ultimately a disappointment. There seems to be a bit of laziness at the hands of the team that made it. Someone spent a lot of time rendering the props in 3D because there's a perspective shift as you move up but then someone else on the team seems to have gotten really lazy with the art since there's really not a lot going on. Monsters seem to have been borrowed from elsewhere and even the FX seems to have been cut out of the budget. I mean when was the last time you picked up an invisibility power-up and remained visible? That's what this game does, the monsters kinda ignore you but your character is still visible to you with not a pixel of FX.
