Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Really
Awesome.
This is front page on PA. I can't believe no one is talking about this. I think I'm looking forward to this over any other shooter coming down the pipe.
There are some (seemingly) really good upcoming shooters and I really have no idea which I want the most. There's this, Brink, Crysis 2, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Duke Nukem Forever. Personally I'm not that excited about Duke, but I want those four others roughly equally.
I'm very much looking forward to nether regions kills.

And I still got a good ways to improve.
EDIT:
Make that rank 135, score 11640. x_X
But Goddamn, this is going to be a day 1 for me. And yeah, the acting is corny, but it's not trying to be something it's not. I think it's perfect for what the game's all about. Sadistic massacre.

This might be the first game I buy new in a while.
Get vertigo bonuses and Voodoos too. And don't forget leashing the door in the beginning with an enemy under it.
Oh, and the booze. Just after the electric cable part. By the way, touching the cables loses you score.
...yeah.

No, and if it bothers anybody then the devs find that amusing as all get-out.
Takes some damn precision to get some of these combos down.
Also, I found that your score is lowered for 2 reasons.
A) You took damage, and you lose points based on the the lowest amount of health you had at any one time.
B) You paused. Yep, if you pause once, you lose a chunk of points. No more loss after the first pause of the level.

Up to like 7600, and I KNOW I'm getting hit so thats not helping. Where's the booze at exactly and what does it do?
14.5k, rank 12. If I keep going I'm going to kill myself from insanity or sheer disappointment.
The booze is after the swing electric cables that shock you and are incredibly hard to dodge, and just before the next room with enemies. It's just to the left of the hole in the wall that leads to the room.
Drink it and you get drunk, REALLY drunk. And every kill is worth 100 extra points. It lasts about 10-15 seconds.
My shining moment was just before the fallen elevator tube. Before I went in I prepped the flare on the revolver, then equipped the flail. I made a mad dash and slid to the elevator call button behind the cover. I waited, another, and another came down the shaft. When there were about 8-9 of them, I took a deep breath, brought my gun around the wall, and fired a bola right into the middle of the pack.
Then I switched to the revolver and fired a flair into the same thug who just received his gag order. Then I leashed, held the button, and slammed down the thumper throwing each and every one of them into the ceiling. It was a moment later that the timer on the first bola finally ran down, and exploded in the middle of all of them.
That little ditty got me 2200 points in a single explosion.
I think I'll just end my demo career as #12 in the world. Can't wait for the real thing!

I don't get it. Is there a technical reason for this? Why would my being chaffed at being slighted, be amusing?
I kinda wanted to put boot to face to bullet to butthole.
Don't ask me, ask CliffyB.
As for why there's no PC demo, same excuses as always get offered up I imagine, lack of resources blah blah...
When you sprint like that, you have some turning ability with the left stick. I hate "a" to sprint too, but with limited turning radius you don't really need it on the left stick click.
After the demo, I am wondering if I can swing a day off even though PAXe is around the corner.

See, when other developers give a middle finger to PC gamers, they at least try to make up a bullshit, PR excuse. Bleszinski just goes straight to "QQ moar" territory like a champ.
I like how later on his Twitter feed, he brings up how it's coming on Steam, as if to tell off the grumpy PC gamers who inevitably complained. It's like bragging "We're selling it on Wal-Mart, assholes, stop complaining!" Total non sequitur.
Of course, he also then said EA marketing should be given raises for the Dead Space 2 mom ad, so I don't know why I'm giving a cursory consideration to anything that comes out from his virtual mouth.
What are you talking about, the Dead Space 2 mom ad is the most brilliant piece of video game marketing since the Dragon Age "sex and violence" campaign.
God that was probably the same people responsible for both.
It's not really ironic. It's over-the-top for the sake of being over-the-top, not because it's making fun of the fact it's over-the-top. If that makes any sense.
I think it's just supposed to be purposefully over the top gratuitous.
Tried the demo. Controls and everything are wonderful.
I just, personally, really cannot stand the atmosphere and attitude of the game.
Give me the mechanics in something a little less coarse and in your face and I'd be all over it.
Madworld?
I don't know what it is about this game. Every time I see footage I just see it as Madworld with guns. And colors. I guess it doesn't help that Blum is the main character in both.
I have a tumblr.
Check it out.

Oh. Cliff. So long as it isn't PCF being pounces, I don't care. Its not secret that Cliff is a pounce. I can't think of a title related to Epic since Jazz Jackrabbit, that I cared about in the least.
Seriously, they need to get that to GoG. I'd kill for Jazz Jackrabbit.
I have a tumblr.
Check it out.
I got 686th place, with 10600 points on my best run. I'm really liking the lots of health you have, and the nice meaty weapons that you don't have to look down the sights for at all.
EDIT: Holy crap, the PMC is a railgun on secondary.
I'm thinking this won't be too long of a game. Maybe 6-8 hours to encourage multiple playthroughs.

I would really reccomend trying again. I found it very fun.
Me too. When I first read that Epic put their games up on Steam I was very disappointed to find that it was only the Unreal games and not anything from before then.
I know that Tyrian and One Must Fall 2097 have been made freeware, but I haven't heard of anything like that with Jazz Jackrabbit.
Wow that is seriously dickish. Why can't we have a demo? I'd say it's more important for users to have a PC demo than a console demo simply to be able to see if their computer can run the game well. Console demos spur sales, PC demos do that and let us know if we can even play it. The game is supposed to be setup for 3D, so I'd at the very least like to see how well the 3D looks and runs on my system before dropping 50-60 bucks. It's not a crime to not have a demo, but it is to rub it in our faces that consoles get it and we don't.
