Raptor: Call of The Shadows - 2015 Edition
Very poor port of an old DOS game.
Positives:
+Classic top-down shooter with currency system and upgrades.
Negatives:
-Some achievements have trouble working correctly. This requires you to do the achievement over and over again before it finally unlocks.
-Mouse function does not work very well at all. In windowed mode the curser can go outside the window and your ship will stop responding. The mouse also gets hung on imaginary objects at times requiring you to move it around real fast to free it.
– Real player with 12.3 hrs in game

Not great, not terrible
(applies to both original game and the port)
My young self first played this classic in ‘95 in shareware format (only 1st sector) and it left me in awe. How could it not when all my previous top-down scroller-shooter were the ones from ZX Spectrum. Raptor had great graphic, sounds, rocking music and a real plane (as opposed to shapes glued together forming a flying blob that I experienced earlier). I finally completed the full game in 2006 which was the last time I played it before now.
