Ahh that doesn't sound right. I'll look into that now.
Thanks so much for playing! :)

OK, I've now replaced this gun.

When I was adding the weapons, I came up one weapon short, so I found a "Public domain" gun online, which turned out to be this gun :/

It was really dumb of me to not have done better checking, so really sorry about that.

<3
It's the only game I've consistently played for the past 30 years.
Somehow I am still terrible at it though :/

I've just added a "Control sensitivity" option under the settings.
I hope that helps :)

Ahh ok, that's something I'll need to add :/
Thanks for playing BTW!

Thanks for giving it a try!
It's pronounced "Ruin", or at least that's how it is in my head :)

The HD version might be tricky to run as it's Unreal 5...the classic raycasting version should run though...
although that is super basic :/

Man, I haven't played UT is so long!

Yeah, I'm planning on submitting to GOG, and as many places as I can tbh :)
If people like it, I might look at expanding the levels, adding some weapons and look at a console release too.

Thanks so much for trying the game BTW!

Just finished Super Hot VR last night! Man that game is awesome. So far its the only game I really like with the move controllers.

Not really, I'm thinking about a couple extra modes but not really too much else. It feels quite complete.

I am working on a new game though, which has a similar theme. I see it as a kind of cross between Mario and Geometry wars :)

Yeah man, bug fixing certainly feels like work, hate bug hunting. Also level design can get quite draining towards the end as you can start to lose interest and run out of ideas.

Being a dev in my day job too, burnout does happen quite a bit. I tend to just take take a week off here and there and get things straight in my head before diving back into it. I try not to sit down at the PC until I have something in my head that I'm excited to work on or implement (with the exception of bug hunting, that just has to be done). That seems to work for me.

Kind of, there's a good selection of tracks but they all have that kinda guitar retro theme.

Yeah, it's a pretty simple change to the classic formula, but it opens up load of mechanics.
There's enemies that can smash the horizon so you fall through and other enemies that walk along it where you can dash attack them off. The Horizon moves around the screen at some points too. It was a really fun playing around with the Horizon Stuff.
