Actually a very well crafted game. 8/10 Ammo is limited. Controls Press return when near a fallen comrade to drop and switch weapons. Press Space to toss a grenade and left shit to throw a grenade further. When you are out of ammo, press return to drop your gun and then you get hand to hard combat skillz to use.
