X-Massacre: Tom went to the mall (with the intent to kill)

Projects that have specifically been abandoned or considered "dead" get moved here, so people will quit bumping them. If your project has wound up here and it should not be, contact a moderator to have it moved back to the land of the living.

Ha, I read it as that too, except I read intent as internet.

IQ < 0 :P
Now that is the real perfect title. "Tom Hall went to the Mall (with the Internet to kill)"

Play Tom Hall in his crusade to kill the Internet by fighting his way in a mall, and discover the true meaning of Christmas by doing so.

Should I try to make a 2010 release? I started way too late. I could get a barely functional rushed version out by the 25th, but would anyone even give a crap about this mod after chistmas?

idk man, with all these new ideas, putting in some Tom Hall graphics and a story for next year could nab you a mock award. ;)

Question: Why do you need a score system to buy things if you're going to the mall with a gun and the intent to kill? =P

I thought the point of looting stores was that you don't pay for what you take.

Fun gameplay? gameplay > story. if i play a game that tells a great story but plays like a dead duck i will drop it like its hot. also, redundancies are OK! also inconsistanceis too. I'm a A+ student who did drugs in high school that joined the marines for the hell of it.

I was just pointing out a potential gap in the concept.

Ok, so I've decided to make perhaps a January or February release, this won't even be completely playable by the 25th. I'll have some screens of new content later (once it's presentable, kind of a mess right now)

Teh bmup. New video showing "chargable" fists. I'm not aiming or playing very well in this video due to severe lack of sleep, but meh, shows the concept. I am fully aware the translation is screwed up.
Also, should I use photographed people on a turntable like in ROTT, or try to put together some more doom style people?

Anyway, on to the video: (sorry for the lack of sound)

Real people on turntable! If you have possibility to do so, it would be a shame to not use that. Besides:
1) It's been a long time since somebody did it - time of digitalized characters has sadly passed...
2) It will make your WAD very, very unique

On the other hand though, digitalized sprites = more work, since every sprite should look photo-realistic, just to fit the scenery.
