the name
thats right

heres the deal:

a red clad guy with a white plain circle mask (cant see face or nothing)
with two pistols kills

nice eh?
but here is where it gets deeper

its a secret society thats trying to undermind the "Neo-Nazis" (tell me if you come up with a better name for an evil government) in which they are all posing as the same guy so the gov thinks that its just one guy causing all this civil unrest.

and lemme tell you
therell be loads of twists and turns along this ride so dont think im letting you off and just that ankle deep (compared to the rest) story

heres the gameplay
W,A,S,D
for side scrolling "soldat" styled movement (if you know that game-else look it up)
the numpad for combat
then press "NUM 0" (zero) to switch to weapon mode in which each of the numbers are a direction in which you shoot. (and five will turn it into slo-mo :img02: )
also i will try my best to make it so that you can shoot two directions with two diff buttons (you do, after all, have four fingers you could use)

and for one-on-one fistie combat therell be a little marker in front of your enemy that will tell you where he'll strike and youll have to hit a corresponding button on numpad
do it right and an opening will come up (him slightly stunned) which you can hit him hard with the center attack ( NUM 4) which will KO him and thus he's over

also, i might add, derelict's hightened speed and strength
expect big jumps, fast running (at times), and crazy moves (which will be easy to access but limited with a "sensory" bar (along with the health bar (no limit to bullets, because of wierd and complicated reasons explained in-game)))

expect great things from this.

undermind

What, is this the opposite of the Zerg Overmind?

Edit by L: How many times do I have to tell you? Keep your opinions out of this!

Edit
Considering that Neo-Nazism is very real, I would probably try to settle for something that... exists less. Try RNs, for Retro-Nazis.

Are you using Game Maker, or perhaps The Games Factory? Or are you being a real trooper and hard-coding it?

Well, considering that Neo-Nazis are probably just a bunch of antisocial teens who think Nazis are cool, you could probably come up with something else.
Plus, the Nazis weren't a form of government, they were just a military... unless that's what you want.

You know, a really cool cliche is to use the type of goverment as the name, like "the Monarchy" or "the Oligarchy", or you could make up a supreme-ruler or senate title and just add "-archy" or "-mony" to it.

Also, to heck with Soldat, Gunster is where it's at.

"Nazi" refers to a political party that still exists.

I dont believe that the Nazis are still a political essence or roll model for a political power.

interesting game idea though. will take a big boot to get a good start off. good luck.

update!!!!
white room games in dev

that means i will test each major idea of derelict in little itty bitty bits so i can get used to
a) using these things in a game
b) the syntax of these things in a game
c) generally how to peace everything together

the first one will use getkey and graphix
simple enough?
see the syntax for that stuff...
heavy....
