Hey guys, I wasn't sure which forum to post this in, so I hope this one's okay. I know it's a few days late, but I just thought I'd spread this around a little bit more.

(copied and pasted from elsewhere)

So I've been working as a programmer on a PC first person shooter game these past couple of months, and we've finally made a public release. This is an "alpha demo with plenty of additions along the way"; there's only three weapons, three enemies, and seven levels included, but it's a pretty awesome sneak peek so far.

I like the Cel-shaded look to it, thats really neat. I love my cel-shaded games.

It's not cel-shaded, it's sprites. There's no lighting at all, it's just drawn that way ;)

The cartoonish look makes the game highly reminiscent of Chex Quest. The animations are pretty gorgeous.

I just played it and its awesome.
It reminded me a bit of these things:Borderlands, Transformers cartoons, and Doom.
its a blast to play and looks like a cartoon.

Thank you very much for this link. This game is phenomenal. Can't wait to try my hand at the multiplayer when I get home from work.

No multiplayer yet. We may have forgotten to mention that.
