Obviously not all vents allow you to weld them shut, but that bit reminded me of those godawful moments in games like these where you see something, try to interact with it and get told that "you don't see any of those here". Etc. Bleh!
But good stuff this, except for the lack of welder kills.
I love text adventures!

Its like a real MP game. when you decide stupid you just respawn and miss some action.
Its really non linear. apart from the fact that you secure waste first you can switch between 3 "paths" that represent "Ramboing", "Defending" and "the thin grade between genius and insanity".
It goes from Securing Reactor Room till securing Waste.
Stopped it for more intelligent stuff.

Heh. I worked on a qbasic text-based advanture game on and off for about three years until I stopped and moved on to C++. It didn't have monsters in it, but I guess it wouldn't be too hard to adapt it to do this...
Nah. Too much work. It'd be fun, but it's *way* too much work. Especially since i'd have to start from scratch (I'm *not* going to dig up the old qbasic code. It's awful.)
You see a scorpian that hovars without flapping.
