The game is almost entirely finished, I just have to add a crap load of achievements and then online highscores. I feel like it is amazing and I spent so much more time playing it than I did working on it. It's just genuinely fun.Please take the time to play it and give me some constructive comments on it. Also, if anyone likes the game enough to make some music that would fit, I probably won't say no. I feel like some decent music can only help the situation right now. :)
New and Improved Slaughter-fest! :D

While I still hate the color, I can't argue that the splattering is nicely done.
Thanks. I don't know what to tell you about the color though. I like it. :P
I wonder what the other games are looking like so far.Try
Red 170Green 0Blue 22Man, Scott, you really hate pure red. :P
Maybe Scott's a hemophiliac? You know, someone that's scared of blood…=3
But on a serious note, the graphics (at least for the enemies) could use a little work, I think. A big part of playing a game especially a violent one, is the satisfaction I feel from firing the gun and hitting someone. Shooting at an outline, with a bullet that is simply a line, doesn't feel all that powerful.But for a positive suggestion, I think you should make combos. It'll really vary the scores that people get a lot more. Right now, 500 points means you killed 5 enemies, but with a combo, it could mean that the player killed 4 enemies, and got a bonus for the combo. Also, there's a game called Beat Hazard that is similar to this, and it gives you a score multiplier if you stop shooting for 5 second. That's something else you might want to incorporate.Do you plan on making power ups and stuff as well?I do, I hate default red.
@firestomx - Isn't that a disease? Oh, and you got something on your upper lip, been there for years. ;)Yeah, I'm definitely going to have powerups. Here's some of my ideas:
- Mating Season (Increase enemy spawn rate) - Bloodlust (Slightly faster movement but unlimited attack speed) - Exploding Crabs (Crabs explode into bullets upon death) - Cleanup (The player just slowly accumulates points for nothing and wipes the blood off the stage)But I didn't think about combos. Great idea!I have until Valentine's Day to finish, so I'm not rushing.Also, yeah… More people should give me feedback. :(
