ok holy shit, for a 2014 game, this looks good, and preforms good, and is fun as hell to play. Great work!
You are playing as a pilot of bipedal drone (simply put as a drone) whom was sent to recapture stolen goods from outcasts in postapocaliptic environment.
*** Story so far:
13 years after the fall of our civilization. Humans have been divided into two major parts. Today exist only those who prey upon others and those who are being exploited by them.
The rich rebuilt cities which had prevailed into their fortresses soon after the collapse. These fortresses serves now as a sanctuary for those, who had money, power or both. It was the only chance to get a new promising life in orbit, where the most powerful people escaped and have been residing since the collapse. The situation on Earth is getting worse every day. The elites must deal with outcasts, who have been attacking from the ruins of our former civilization.
The wall in block G had been breached and outcast took very important gear, which you as a bi-pedal drone pilot of FZDF (Fort Zeus Defence Force) must acquire back...

Graphics look impressive, especially for being in 2014. I like the nod to old school arcades, with the insert coin message. When you die and the game over screen looks like static, that is a top notch touch. However, this is just a prototype, so you lose points. Did you ever submit a finished a complete version?
it's a shame you forgot all about this :(
I don't know how such a great game got overlooked
good graphics and game feels all around
very hard - until you learn to advance slowly and carefully instead of just going in guns blazing, which is most people would rather do if they got their hands on a sweet ass gundroid like this one
Hey, thank you for the review, Im glad you like it. Im still working on the game adde new features. Still there is lot of work, especially new levels etc.
Im glad you like it and stay tuned for new info & releases :)
Holy shit more please. Keep diving into code, learning how to implement multiple/alternate layouts, improving physics (should ammo boxes really bounce off of each other while you're trying to pick them up, for example?), and improving the camera (it should probably snap as far to the left or right as soon as you face your aim in that direction, otherwise you're limiting your attack vision by a lot firing while running away). I'm pretty blown away.
Thank you, Im glad you like it :) Im already working on these issues, it depends pretty much on "if I win construct2 licence" Some of the problems (Ammo boxes, weapons, camera) will be fixed as soon as the Scirra competiton ends!
