And speaking of "The Chaos Engine," to my surprise, level 2 turned out to be a top-down shooter. At first, I was not pleased, but when I learned the mechanics (for a change, not explained in menu), it became fun. The key part is in the title: you're Demolition Man, which moniker was earned by destroying everything in the process of enforcing the law. So, you just shoot your way through the level. Luckily, hostages that we have to free are immune to our bullets.

The top-down variant of gameplay has three modes of shooting: you can shoot as you run, stand and direct fire in 8 directions, or, and this is new here, you can lock the direction of shooting and move like that. The last mode is a really good design; and blessing, compared to "The Chaos Engine." Oh, how the game would be more manageable if I could run through levels like that. And, of course, you can throw grenades, too, though I don't use them that much.
