From screenshots, it kinda reminded me Doom Troopers

I am surprised I’ve never heard of this.
It very much has that mid 90s attitude and unique to DOS too. From what I remember, consoles didn’t really have these sort of games.
The artwork is too notch and stands the test of time.

Having just watched a video explaining how EA strongarmed SEGA during the Genesis/Mega Drive era, the main reason games that “feel” like this one almost never graced the early consoles was mostly due to awful deals that Sega and Nintendo forced publishers to accept - “we’ll produce however many carts we want to, whenever we want to”.
Making a PC game at the time, on the other hand, meant a lot more creative freedom, lower development costs and higher profit per sale, though with a way, way smaller market.
