A quick check on the periodic table shows that element 99 is Einsteinium. And
from the breakdown of game mechanics this seems to be a rip off of Timeshift.
In that you could manipulate time as well and I quite enjoyed that game. We'll
see about this one.

Indeed !!!! Raven's version of a "chinese copy".

And Timeshift was a thoroughly under-rated game. From a Russian
developer with a horrid distributor. Excellent single-player
"campaign" with great story-line. Terrific and hugely-varied level
designs by somebody with a love of moving machinery. A great pity,
since the multiplayer would also have been great fun, but nobody
there..... Maybe the Russian developer will sue the pants off
Raven/Activision...

I've played it all the way through twice (nearly) but couldn't finish it.
Standing on the rooftops trying to shoot the Sentinal didn't seem like a
fair fight to me.

Damn... thats twice this year I'll agreed with you. Turning into a
regular fanclub ;-)

I'm pretty (more like VERY) mediocre at instant-reflex shooters, but
having died about 30 times trying various approaches, I figured out a
technique (not just luck) that worked.... For the life of me, I can't
remember the details from about a year ago - it would probably all
come back to me when I got to that point again. Sigh, you have just
prompted me to put the game near the top of my replay priority list...
