Merc Roid v.0.25 (Alpha): 3D Metroid clone |
Ó
Here's a homebrew game that could go far. This is Merc Roid from dev lokiare1, author of CPU-Modulator. As you probably picked up from the name, it's a Metroid clone in 3D. This would be pretty sweet if completed.
The game is in its Alpha stages, but already has quite a few things. Just recently it was given lots of new stuff, as stated in his release:
I've created a few new levels. I've added lava (damage, visual, and liquidyness). You can now pick up any upgrades that I put in a level. You can travel from one level to another (I don't have a loading screen yet, but it is relatively quick to load each level).
I've added a few sound effects, but they are slow to load, and I've had some crash problems with them. I haven't changed the screenshots yet, but I will later.
In 0.25 I've added the door shield that can require any attack type to open. I've implemented the missile pickup (you start with 10 I think each tank adds 5 more.) I've created the first boss, but he is not playable until the next update.
Here's what else he has planned for the game:
- Create a story-line.
- Create a menu screen.
- Add a save feature.
- Add doors that only open based on the attack that is used against them.
- Add more monsters.
- Add a few boss monsters.
- Add zones that have different affects (water slows jump, move, and gravity speed, etc. etc...)
- L-Button - Jump (later I will have a system where you jump higher/further based on how much you do it).
- R-Button - Shoot, hold for charge beam (shoots missiles when in missile mode, appears to charge but has no effect on the fire-power when in missile mode)
- Analog-Nub - Aims the gun (moves the camera)
- Triangle - Moves forward (move speed will vary based on how much you move)
- Square - Strafe left.
- Circle - Strafe right.
- Cross - Move Backward.
- Select - Switch between missiles and beam mode

About time a 3D homebrew is released as a standalone and not a mod. It's been a while.
This vaguely reminds me of Halo for some reason.
promising.
it's cause you are a human and your in a super suit???
