Hey there,

I will upload a playable build as soon as I can but for now you can watch this video :

    You can download the game and play ! The sound is by @mexicanopiumdog although there is still some placeholder sfx in some places.

    There is still lots to do so please forgive bugs and the lack of enemies and guns :) I don't have any spesific questions yet.. but feedback, as always, would be awesome.

    Thanks,
    Kobus

    This is rad. I love games like Gun Godz, and this is very much in that vein (with a bit of extra gore).

    There were some big framerate spikes on my computer. I don't know what's causing them, but every now and then it seems like the deltaTime jumps really high and I end up facing a wall or something.

    Obviously I'd like to see some progression. And more Brutal Doom elements (if this is going in that direction).

    I think the turret enemies aren't very interesting to fight. They tend to be a matter of edging round a corner, firing and taking cover again. I don't think this is very interesting. I'm not sure what the best solution is, I think in Doom enemies would move into line of sight of you, although chasing enemies aren't that interesting either. I'd ideally like there to be some way to outsmart them, but maybe this isn't that kind of game. Throwing grenades round corners could be fun (if they stay turrets but are even more dangerous once alerted). Causing them to panic because you've killed the mob-boss of the room might be fun. Maybe stuff like that?

    The rocket launcher can be spammed as often as you can click. I did pick up some upgrades, but I suspect this isn't as a result of the upgrades.

    @EvanGreenwood Thanks for playing !

    I haven't noticed framerate spikes so im not sure what you experienced. My PC isn't that powerfull either but I will investigate.
    I will make the green enemies move around.
    I will add a reload time to the rocket launcher so that it cant be spammed.
    I am busy adding progression.
    I also want to add some stronger enemys and a boss fight at the end of the game.

    The plan is to have a very short rougelike fps. Where you play 3 normal levels and get a bossfight on level 4.

    PS : I played Gun Godz for the first time just before starting work on this.. its awesome.

    There is a new build up with some of the changes I mentioned as well as a new enemy called lazerbeamer.

    <3 This is *#$%!@ AWESOME! More 3D than the original Castle Wolfenstein! Apart from the gun. Maybe give it some width? Those projectiles flying at you and the blood splatters are already better than THAT OTHER game. Carmack, be warned... :D
