Publisher's description of Artificial Nature
The game is an abstract, organic themed, arena shooter. There is a base in the center of the arena where the player spawns. When the bad guys are destroyed they will often drop stars. The player can collect a limited number of stars and should deposit them to the central base. When the base is 100 percent full, the game is won. However if the player is hit when not holding any stars the game is over.
Balance is key. The AIs are a bit aggressive at times, but once you learn their movement styles the game can be played to the end in a few minutes. The camera follows the player and when not fireing the player will move quickly, so be careful not to go running into deadly creatures. It is often better to move slower and let the camera catch up and re-center. You may also use the pause screen to look around from higher up, this helps to plot your attack route. You can kill the Big Moma Bug but it is not easy.
There is a dialog at start-up that lets you set the res. as well as the fullscreen/windowed mode. The game supports 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x800 or 1280x1024 screen resolutions. Controls are mouse to aim and arrow keys or WASD to move about. Left Mouse Button is fire and Right Mouse Button will depost a star into the base.

Version: Artificial Nature
"No Gameplay Whatsoever........"
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Unlike Asteroids, this game gives you no chance of any type of survival while shooting. As soon as you shoot the first "pod", you are swarmed from every direction, giving you absolutely no chance to fire back. Whoever made this game needs to work out the bugs, and add more lives to each session. One life does not cut it.

Version: Artificial Nature
Pros: It was beautiful - very artistically done with sound complimenting the video nicely. 5*
Cons: I was dead in seconds both times I tried it. You need to be a manic in order to react quickly enough in order to stay alive. Not me, not any more.
There is nothing "artificial nature" about this. It's just a name with no meaning behind it. It is simply a rehash of Asteroids. My guess is that people new to video games will find this entertaining. I've been playing since Asteroids and PONG and so I can't get into this very attractive looking and sounding game. 1*
