This is a WIP project on which I've been working on lately (still working)... There is nothing special, just an old school pixelated look, three type of weapons (pistol, shotgun, smg), 4 type of enemies (melee attacking crap and shooters (same weapons as player)). I've added some camera effects from my previous project LAST STAND. There is also a respawn system, which I was planning to use in my other project, the idea is pretty simple, you have only three (let's say) lifes per a level, and after death you can use them to respawn at respawn point, position of which was saved by you (I liked idea of getting to life from bioshock). About the resources that game uses, most of them aren't made by me, but changed to be used under this project as a placeholder, who knows maybe this time (hopefully) I'll make this one till the end, so I'll look for an artist to draw this kind of 8-bit sprites and textures. So this means, that nothing from the game resources (including, sprites, textures, sounds, .fx files and anything could be found in the archive) could be used or distributed! Here you can download it from my webpage: oldSchoolCrap And for those who too lazy to download 3 MB game, here are some screens: Edit: I've forgot to mention, in order to keep things really oldschool, try to play without a mouse: WSAD - movement forward/backward/strafe Cursor Left/Right - rotation left/right Cursor Up/Down - movement forward/backward CTRL - shoot SPACE - interact For normal game experience with mouse everything is usual: WSAD - movement forward/backward/strafe Mouse Movement - rotation left/right Mouse Left - shoot Mouse Right - interact Greets!

this. is. awesome. for my taste the resolution is a bit too low and the textures could use some work. But except for these two things I like it

About textures, I tried to keep things minimalistic, but maybe I failed About resolution, well I tried to bring oldschool look, at first I thought about making it even lower! TRY TO PLAY WITHOUT A MOUSE!

Thank you guys. Ok next update, I'll try to make it less pixelated Edit: the only MAIN thing missing right now, is a good and intensive 8-bit (chip tune) music! Does anyone of you guys know any good tunes still free to use for non-commercial use?

I like it, feels good. Yet I don't appreciate the visuals, it's way too pixelated to the point that I would not play the game, it feels bad on my eyes/ brain/ whatever, it makes me feel uncomfortable. I'd say at least double the resolution and make take inspiration from here (more stylized, though).

Thank you, I'll take a look at that one. More music advices are needed! I like it, feels good. Yet I don't appreciate the visuals, it's way too pixelated to the point that I would not play the game, it feels bad on my eyes/ brain/ whatever, it makes me feel uncomfortable. I'd say at least double the resolution and make take inspiration from here (more stylized, though). Thank you for feedback, Superku! As I've said above, I'll increase the resolution, but no, I won't change the visuals to archive 'Brutal DooM' style. You probably don't see the point of this project... I wanted to create something as simple as possible, but yet funny to play. For 'Brutal DooM like' game, I have another 'frozen' project, video of which you've seen on my youtube channel.
