Where the fuck are the kids man? Did they bitch out on them?
When the devs were asked this question, they responded: "It's simply too much effort to aim downwards in an top-down shooter".
It was just a joke. They haven't included kids during the design phase, and now it's to much additional work so they doesn't bother to implement them. Also, main designer prefer this game without killable kids.
Dunno what are you expecting, but IMO this would be solid Alien Shooter clone with good graphics and probably some entertaining mechanics/physic.
I'm still holding on to the hope that there's a twist halfway in that all the people you were killing were possessed by demons, and a portal to hell opens with demonic pig-cops goosestepping out of it. That could inject some life into the game after you get tired of killing civvies and normal cops.
lol. Most of the people complaining about violence in this game wouldn't have any problem with it if there were zombies, demons, androids or whatever fantasy shit they like, instead of humans, even if it would looks and behave like human. They could enjoy cutscenes of exploding brains and slitted throats without questioning themself if it's morally acceptable.
