Hmm... I got stuck on the edge of the map while getting out of the helicoptor, stuck while going up a lift, and stuck when someone jumped on my head. Each time I had to restart the whole game. But I guess losing by getting stuck fits the theme well :)
The text instructions were helpful but not very immersive.

Ya, getting stuck in enemies when they hit you was a problem we ran out of time to fix.

We had planned for a story to be told with the text instructions, but again, we ran out of time.

I really liked the part where I ran over the enemies with the car - that was fun ^^

Besides the getting stuck bugs, I missed some animations, especially for the helicopter.

Interesting game. Reminds me of GTA because of the vehichle =P One thing that I loved about the game was "guard-surfing". The thing that I hated (and made my turn off the game in frustration) was when the guards "surfed" on the char... Everytime a guard was right on top of the char, it wouldn't move...

Got stuck more than once in enemies.
