Yes!, its like an amalgam of all the best 80s action and sci-fi flicks. You can even see pixelated movie posters for movies like The Thing and Alien here and there in the game. its really fun to play too...

It's definitely marketed to us arcade enthusiasts. It looks fun and humorous. I usually only get games on sale from Steam, but I doubt I will want to wait for this to be discounted.

Be great if it can be run as a standalone exe so you can easily play it in a mame cab.
This!!

We could probably debate the word "easily", but if you're using RocketLauncher, setting up a Steam game is just as easy as a standalone exe.

Getting steam to load offline is a bit of a mess.
Most people dont have their cabs connected to the net permanently.

Can't you just set steam to offline mode? I thought that's what I was doing with my 4 player cab. Steam stays in offline mode until you change it back. But I could be mistaken.

But I dont like doing it as occasionally it decides it wants to go online and throws up error windows.
Also makes boot up slow.

I also used to keep my cab pc offline, but then I just bought a decent wifi antenna and I wish I had done it sooner. I'm using Win 10 so I was trying to avoid the updates, but lo and behold I would still get that &$@!) "What's new with Windows" screen every so often. ...pisses me off. So I figured, may as well stay connected. Especially now that I've become a Steam connoisseur (for arcade-friendly games only, of course).
