Krazy Ivan is a mech first-person shooter released for PC, Sega Saturn and PlayStation in 1996 by Psygnosis.
The player took the role of Ivan Popovich, a Russian soldier controlling a giant mechanical suit, defending the Earth from robotic aliens.
The game was not a commercial success. The graphics were good for its time and there is a variety of weapons, but the game is incredibly short, consisting in its entirety of five zones (Russia, Saudi Arabia, France, USA and Japan) each taking about 10 minutes to complete. The game also has an interface at the end of each zone allowing the player to spend the game's form of experience points (power cores) on upgrades and weapons, but the selection of said upgrades and weapons is limited.
In-Game Cinematics
The game had full motion acting in front of blue-screens and sets as an intro movie and a cut-scene between each level.
Audio Soundtrack
The in-game soundtrack was written and produced by CoLD SToRAGE who also composed the music for the Wipeout series of games released by Psygnosis Limited.
