[abandoned] WW-1930

[wildweasel]

Here's what I planned to turn into a very short TC. What got in the way? Lack of resources, maps, and patience to make better weapon graphics.

So the story went, the player's brother had just been tortured to death by mobsters in Depression-era Chicago, in connection with a supposed blackmailing. The player - a disgraced private investigator and former policeman - decides to take care of the situation the only way he can: with a pack of cigarettes, a baseball bat, and a lot of bullets.

What's included?

• Five weapons: fists, a bat, a revolver, a shotgun, and a Thompson.
• Two enemies: the corrupt cops and Mafia Operators toting shotguns. Only the Operators have sounds.
• Playpal replacement for 100% greyscale action. No, I'm NOT going for the Sin City look, so NO RED.
• Status bar replacement; half-finished.

I'm dumping the project here because I don't have the patience to do anything with it now.

Sad to hear...

Actually this project is nice, the sprites are made very well, except for the pistol that should be more on the right and the thompson that doesn't look good at all (is it from Killing time game?)
Too bad that it was abandoned

Yeah, the Thompson is from Killing Time (I was looking for any Thompson that wasn't Blood's; I can't stand the sight of the thing anymore given how many people have [mis]used it).

I might look into at least making this a weapon mod, which means some balance changes might be in order (i.e. less realistic weapon damage, slightly more ammo, player's movement speed set back to default). Unless I could get some help for graphics and maps.

This plays really and looks really good - especially for an unfinished project. It's a real shame that it won't become the full-blown mod that you had envisaged.

I wish i could, but i suck with making maps and graphics
i'm only good with weap decorates (with no reload, i don't get that process yet)
