The Second Compression Chamber and Gear Loader upgrades are my favorites here, especially the former. The Sharpened Spikes are sweet. I like how you managed to fit in the Spear Gun's coolest function, being able to nail enemies to the scenery, into a pistol-type weapon. The gameplay enhancements here all well thought-out, and fit this weapon's fighting style perfectly.

If I were to make one negative remark, it would be that having the Gear Loader-upgraded Spike Impactor fire in bursts of four might be a bit too much, as on one hand it would allow you to kill normal Splicers instantly (and with overkill) and dispose of Alpha Series in little over three clicks, and on the other hand it would be murder on ammo consumption. Decreasing the amount of spikes fired to two or three could work (it would also allow you to fire more than three bursts before having to reload).
