Greetings everyone, and welcome to Falcon Squad (soon to be subtitled)… a little project I've been working on for about a month now.
Falcon Squad is a top down shooter which, when finished, will hopefully include a pretty fulfilling, story-driven campaign mode, a training area, and statistics tracking via Reflect. Right now though, it's only got multiplayer modes, which I am very happy with so far.Screenshots

They're a bit different.
And guess what, I own at this game as well as ST [:D]Wow, this game is very fun. Personally, I think it would be better if 'W' moved you in the direction of the mouse, but thats probably just me.
Ugh, really? I find that to be a terribly uncomfortable control scheme. A directional arrow not moving in the direction it points just makes my brain boil for some reason.
Looks good Fred. Not my style of game, really, but your graphics and polish (if possible) get much better with each release.Awesome game, death animation is kinda weird though. Overall amazing! Lol, I won the match, talk about getting beaten at your own game…jk :P.
Hey buddy, but you know this needs work lol
See you at reflect!If you make the ocean have waves and refraction, SY will for sure give you a BJ.
One of THE most awesome games ever, but aren't all of your games? [;)]
I know it's probably too late, but I really don't like the way the guys hold their guns - they stand perpendicular to the weapon and hold it directly in front of them in this game, yet that's not such a great way of holding a gun…
