And now, it's actually here!

Is it anything you couldn't already experience downloading the
AlephOne version? No.

Is it going to wow you with its gameplay, the sort of game you must
experience? It is definitely not that either. 

But if you've a fondness for boomer shooters, or just an interest in
the history of how FPS games developed over the year, it's worth a
look. Especially since it's free, will download nearly instantly (it
requires only 33MB of disk-space) and will run well on even the most
potato-ey of potato-computers.
