    This game is still early in development. The next update will feature lots of improvements (including different footstep noises and a whole new level). /this build already features a fun little easter egg, based not he Konami Code though. I've added it at the end of the video.
    As a side note, the Alpha Beta Gamer "Games to Get Excited About Fest" is due to go live this Friday. It'll feature 100+ upcoming indie games to get excited about, no CGI trailers and no filler (aside from some links between the different genres). Hope to see you there! :)

    lying prone was a big part of dodging in the original, i think by allowing everyone to just aim all over the y axis, it kills some of that original feeling. if you're going to remove lying prone you almost have to insert a dodge roll or something to compensate.

    I'm going to hazard a guess that this is running on top of the GZDOOM engine.

    Even in third person this game is still difficult for me to beat.
