This is probably my new favourite FPS.
It's thoroughly a parody, and it's got a lot of love in it, in a way that I think works possibly better than anything else of its kind. The writing is brilliant, and in a way that feels much more convincing than most attempts at something similar.
It functions as a game without compromise, with dense (but unconfusing) and varied levels. It's really good fun.

I was incredibly hyped for Hypnospace Outlaw when it came out, more hyped than it could possibly live up to, and my impression since has been that it wasn't as good as I hoped, but this is REALLY making me want to give it a new chance after all these years. My memories of what it actually was seem like it's absolutely brilliant.
