Don't even know if it will work on another windows machine, let alone Linux or a Mac.

furyhunter 2014-08-25 03:49

Works for me. Pretty fun, although I wish there wasn't a framerate cap, no consideration for monitors with more than 60hz refresh :(

powerspark 2014-08-25 03:56

Great aiming mechanics! People need to make more games like this!

frr171 2014-08-25 03:56

Enjoyed the interpretation of old-school fps's. Found the game to be pretty tough though!

geekygenius 2014-08-25 04:01

What a fun crawler! And it did work for me Win7 64

kenrickrilee 2014-08-25 04:02

Old-school-cool.

martindilling 2014-08-25 04:03

This takes me back to the good old games :P

@Furyhunter You can manually turn frame limiting off in the "data/config/ggu.ini" file. Although, wouldn't recommend it, hasn't been tested much.

Lots of settings you can change in these .ini files like increasing the 3D render resolution, which will result in the rape of your CPU. You can make it fullscreen too.

Solid oldschool shooter you have here. (Says the guy who hasn't played any classic FPS.) Zombies took annoyingly long to kill with the stick and pistol, but that made getting the deathgun really satisfying. The graphics style worked really well and there was a definite sense of danger (especially considering how close I had to get to hit zombies with my stick.) I died twice to batswarm right before the end, and when I got an ending I had to alt+f4 exit. Still the best game I've played so far.

fcpfoof 2014-08-25 12:21

Awesome, I love it! Reminds me of Notch's Prelude of the Chambered ;).
Works perfectly on Linux Mint 64 with Java 8.

muriel 2014-08-25 12:25

It's cool. the best moment for me it's when you take the 2nd gun and suddenly a bird appeared from the corner whit a funny face I laugh a lot.

techblogogy 2014-08-25 12:56

Memories, man. That was this game gives me.

akirassasin 2014-08-25 12:59

Mac works pretty good, but the laughter continued after you close it... haha

soyliquid 2014-08-25 13:09

Yeah I like shooter! Very fun but if it has headshot system then more good.

bubblechien 2014-08-25 13:16

I was doing well, until that bat kicked my ass :D Good work!

zapaman 2014-08-25 13:18

Finished it pretty fast. Got the pistol, almost ran out of ammo, but then I saw that ammo pretty much grows everywhere there. Was fun to play.

manou 2014-08-25 14:38

Didn't play but awesome work for 48h, sick gfx ! The Doom feel is there.

yodamaster 2014-08-25 14:41

Solid working 3D dungeon. Can be expanded to make a really interesting game.

teamonback 2014-08-25 14:42

Really fun to play , nice work!

ViliX 2014-08-25 16:03

Solid game :)

gwenn 2014-08-25 16:35

Really fun to play and good old-school feeling.

retr0spectrum 2014-08-25 16:43

Works fine on Lubuntu 14.04 for me!

priorblue 2014-08-25 16:43

Well done in 48 hours!

imdigitaljim 2014-08-25 17:12

I felt like I was waving a hotdog when I had the stick! lol. Great game reminds me of doom and makes me anxious with a little with claustrophobia :P

tomker 2014-08-25 17:17

Nice work, really fun to play

mess110 2014-08-25 17:27

haven't seen these in a while :)

merlijnvh 2014-08-25 17:55

Pretty cool! I like that you loosened up the aiming and such a bit, feels pretty polished for an old-school FPS.

ofursnati 2014-08-25 19:33

Nice game. Deathgun is the bomb. GJ.

sogomn 2014-08-25 19:57

Definitely had fun playing the game. Great job!

gillenew 2014-08-25 20:07

Nice game, 3d with 2d style was very well done

pinion 2014-08-25 21:18

Woohoo! I won a cake.

Enjoyed progressing through the weapons. Had a kinda spooky oldschool atmosphere with the dark draw distance.

capsizedmoose 2014-08-25 21:34

I liked it :) it was a little slow tho. it doesn't really have that feeling when you just surf through a level in doom. would have loved that

Nacho 2014-08-25 22:00

Movement was frustratingly slow, and enemies frequently came out of nowhere to try and kill me, but other than that, the game was solid. The art needs some work. Only being able to carry one weapon at a time is frustrating, and I don't even know what the hell is going on with the way aiming works.

cryogenesis 2014-08-25 22:18

@Lycaon The aiming is a bit weird yeah. It's standard FPS aim apart from looking up or down is disabled (raycaster). It also has a tween so the crosshair moves independently depending on your rotation speed. Little difficult to use at first.

crazeeruskee 2014-08-25 23:02

Fun game! A bit generic, but still nice. There was a pretty bad bug though: when it went to the death screen, there was no way to exit the game and I had to restart my computer... :( Still though, not bad! :D

uberscientist 2014-08-25 23:48

Great, loved it, pew pewpew

jpatrick 2014-08-26 00:07

Great game :D Graphics worked really well. The zombies seem a bit hard to kill with a pistol though.

tomtheg 2014-08-26 02:14

I like the style, though I wasn't able to restart once I died (or figure out how) which would have been nice.

jgthespy 2014-08-26 02:58

Pretty solid. I wouldn't have stuck with it if I didn't read about the deathgun in the comments.

geckoo1337 2014-08-26 05:13

It's work for me on Vista. It's a funny old school FPS, but it seems to me too slow. It can be improved. Sounds are really annoying for my ears. Well done ++

honcho 2014-08-26 08:02

Pretty solid. Feels great!

oli 2014-08-26 12:15

A bit too slow but I realy like the controls, great job!

And thank you for the cake :D

rnlf 2014-08-26 14:25

This reminds me to start working on my own raycaster game again. I will totally steal your aiming mechanism for it.

atomicvikings 2014-08-26 17:40

Awesome. I love me some raycasting! :D very well done!

sharpcoder 2014-08-27 17:29

This is really fun.

dookie 2014-08-27 21:04

Pretty fun little thing. I liked the controls halfway between really oldschool and modern shooters :) Too bad it just stops completely when you die instead of restarting the level, though.

partiallyexciting 2014-08-27 23:43

Very impressive I must say. It has all the elements of a complete game!

georgebroussard 2014-08-28 09:41

Solid entry. Would like to see better balance on shooting and damage. Have to shoot things too many time to kill them :) Should polish up and work on it some more. Potential.

vividhelix 2014-09-06 17:23

wolfenstein ftw! great entry, ran out of bullets on the bat thingies and couldn't figure out how to switch back to the stick...

stannellc 2014-09-07 12:56

Darn bats!!! ARGHHHH! Great game. Fun Only thing I would say is audio needs to be turned down and gets hard too fast. Otherwise great.

2014-09-10 09:59

BATS!!

Worked Great on my Mac only problem is the game won't quit after I pressed CMD+Q (the mac version of Alt+f4) it will continue to run on BackGround and to restart the game I need to force quit java :(.

Also I can't quit without CMD+Q because the game is fullscreen.

Great game I think I will keep this retro style game to play on my spare time :)

torvik88 2014-09-11 18:39

Great game! Reminded me a lot of Wolfenstein, really nice work on it.
