Thundra: Alien Wackiness from the future Spungulas Software / Askari Corporation 2000

Thundra was an FPS game developed by a small software house, most probably by a single man team using an update version of the Pie 3D Game Creation System. It was intended to be released commercially for $22 (in 2000) and a demo version was also released, but the game was apparently a complete failure due to its extremely complex controls, weak, hard to use weapons and shoddy and unintuitive gameplay (it is possible to lose the game just for being spotted by an enemy within 10 seconds from the start of the game). It also featured horrible sound, a buggy installer and "copy and paste" graphics (the author even admitted using public domain art). The premise of the game is as follows: 3 miles above the city of Thundala a prison complex suffers an outbreak of disease due to a flubbed experiment in Eugenics. Stop the chaos before it reaches outward into the universe. The game can be freely downloaded in its full version from Spungulas Software itself, even though Spungulas' games page now reads "We have pulled all of our old games and will update this page when we finish our newest ones."
