Alternatively; holy CRAP, that glitch is full on.

If you don't realise that's the gore effects from the Gamecave Effects Engine. And the rain. And the grass…:P

So hey, now you get to see my game. Well, a retarded image of it.

<b>Warhammer 40,000: Victory or Death</b>, the topdown shooter created by Mercenary Wolf Studios (also known as me), is now up to build 3.7. Unfortunately, it is largely unstable (see above) so I'm not going to post it until EVERYTHING is good enough to post. Anyone willing to alpha test is always appreciated.

So, what have we got?

-Finally, some proper sprites! Just need a couple of animations.

-Almost all movement code is perfected, just need a couple of dives and other maneuvers like that.

-Health is all good.

-I've got a rate_of_fire script that deals with ALL shooting. I'll post that as an example later.

-AI is a LOT better, it isn't quite so stupid and blind anymore. Still needs a lot of work.

-Gamecave Effects Engine = graphical quality + 10

What haven't we got?

-Still requires heavy debugging

-Some animations would be nice

-AI needs a lot of fixing

-Extra polish

-Muzzle flash

-etc…

So yeah, not ready to release yet.

I've been working on it for about 3-4 months, but it's been a lot of trial and error and error and error and trial and error and error (mostly error =P), so it'll be here when I get the first stable version that I'm fully satisfied with.

But yeah, hope you like it. Got anything to say, drop it by, I appreciate the comments. :)

Post script: I thoroughly disapprove of 64 Digits' lack of a "preview blog" function…
