Hey all, I'm pretty new here
My name's Ben and let me start by saying hello...

HELLO!
I post today because I've spent the last 20 months or so making a little PC game called Subvein and I'd like to share it with you. It's a hobby of mine and I just released a new version (version 0.53) and I'm pretty excited to play it with new people and get some feedback on it. We're mostly experienced gamers here so I'd greatly appreciate your opinion on the game, how it can be improved, what you'd like to see next.. anyway it's really fun and if nothing else I think you'll enjoy yourself.


ABOUT THE GAME:
Subvein is a top-down multiplayer shooter with guns, skills, missions and more. Imagine the top-down view of GTA2, mixed with the intense online action of CS, mixed with the strategic character building and skill selection of Diablo. Basically I've merged all my favorite games into one SUPER game. The next thing I'm going to code in will be vehicles, just like in GTA2.

It's online, free to download and only about 14MB so you can start playing in minutes. If you've played popular shooting games like CS you'll get the hang of things quickly.. WASD to move, Y to chat, E to pickup weapons, etc..

You log in and start off fresh at level 1. You press B to buy your gun and then you start killing people! As you kill people you'll gain experience points and mutate, which allows you to invest skill points. You simply press N to open the skill selection screen and you're presented with a wide range of skills to choose from. Invisibility, Bullet Time, Self Repair, Venom Shot, Blade Fury.. the list goes on. As of v0.53 there are a total of 33 skills in the game and over 20 weapons. You unlock whatever skill seems best to you and then Right Click to use it. With you gorgeous guns and your sexy skills you'll become a dominant force in no time.. the cycle continues, pwning noobs all the way. Subvein has a number of game modes including popular favorites like DM and CTF, and a built in map editor so there are countless map to choose from.

SCREEN SHOTS:
And here are a few sexy screenshots:

Here you can see I'm using a skill called Bullet Time. You guessed it, it slows your bullets down.. matrix style. Quite a good defensive skill. You can also see I'm shooting at a couple of guys, one of which has cast the Blade Fury skill. You don't want to get near him when he has that on because it'll rip you to shreds.

In this picture we see one of the game modes called Extraction. It's basically the same as Capture the Flag, good fun.


m_subvein047.jpg
See my sweet bazooka shot?? He thought he could escape me.. hah!


m_subvein049.jpg
Another Extraction shot, this time extracting the Radio. Radio's are like flags but they're really heavy and slow you down.


Anyway, that should do it. Go check it out if you think you might like this. Remember it's 100% free and downloads in minutes. As mentioned before I'd really appreciate your feedback and hope to play with some of you soon!

Get it here: http://subvein.net

Enjoy!!

    Looks fairly interesting.

    While bad form to plug so early after joining, I may give this a shot when I'm not dying from a workload.

    Thx guys :)

    And yes Worthless Lurker the entire game is multiplayer.. read the words and you shall go far!

    I know it looks bad for site whoring.. but it's not SITE whoring.. it's GAME whoring.. FREE game whoring which is actually half decent (or at least I think so).

    More important is having fun though.. Penny Arcade style shooting stuff fun :D

    much of it will be reluctant shit

    see what would've been the more SE++-accepted thing to do would've been to find a thread and post in it to let people get to know you, and then link your game in your sig

    like, see, you're in Sydney

    that means the Australia thread would've been a really easy place for you to just say hey what's up and get to know peeps and then branch out from there and then within a couple weeks people would've checked out your sig and asked about it and you get to talk about it every time someone raised it

    and then after that you could probably make a thread and not catch shit for it

    I downloaded this game and tried it for while. Seems pretty decent, but I'm going to have to read up on how to use abilities. It was not immediately obvious how to use my self heal skill for instance, though I haven't done a thorough testing of any kind.

    Reminds me a bit of a game called Crimson land, though that was single player only. Seems like it could be fun with a lot of people playing.

    Edit: And for God's sake, remove seduction from your interests.

    Seduction is less of an interest and more of a thing you need to do to not suck at life

    I think seduction carries negative connotations about getting someone to do something against their will for most people maybe?
