17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

1. thanks for reminding me of that i had the demo yrs ago but couldnt think what it was called

2. yes they did but before then they were involved in the Amiga classic alien breed and its sequel tower assault which were just plain and simply awsome, lots of colourful weapons, typical arcade numbers of baddies (heavily influenced in shape by Alien franchise xenomorphs) and dramatic backdrops

I only knew of "Alien Breed" from a TI-83 Plus game which (I'm now guessing) was based on whatever the original of this was?

Okay, I've played it, and it is your generic alien-blasting game complete with all the usual weapons like infinite-ammo pistol, assault rifle, shotgun, flamethrower, weapon with ricocheting projectiles, and the usual "kill everything in front of you in a single shot" weapon.

So yeah, excellent game for what its trying to be, a game where you kill your way through a horde of alien monstrosities.  Basically Shadowgrounds in space.

Yep, but pretty neat graphics (unreal 3 engine), and kinda relaxing due to it's gameplay. Only the constant explosions and screenshakings are a little annoying. :)

Damn you, I've been trying to ignore this for a couple weeks, I'm trying to save money here.... :p
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Actually, downloaded the demo.  It's not bad, not great, but not bad. :)

Tried the demo. I'll probably get it when there's a steam sale and it's $2.50
I will ask that you explain yourself. Please do so with the clear understanding that I may decide I am angry enough to destroy all of you and raze this sickening mausoleum of fraud down to the naked rock it stands on.

Played the original and tower assault to the end. I guess I'll have to get this one sooner or later too then.
