Home made indie fps with decent production value. Makes for a good half hour of fun. :)

While still in development, what is there promises to be a fun little amateur shooter with some puzzles. The type of game we just don't really get anymore and single player story too.

STALKER Anomaly is the definitive STALKER experience.

Its an absolute masterpiece with an unrivaled sense of place, a thick atmosphere and well rounded mechanics. To get the most out of it, you should have played one of the original STALKER games, as this will otherwise seem overwhelming and too punishing. If you know how to get your cheeky breeky on, this will scratch that itch.

There is an incredible sense of freedom to the game that, alongside of the fact that most jobs/quests are generated, might make the game feel empty to some players on first glance, however, the writing to the dialogue and how the mod touches on the events of previous games makes these highly motivating. There are also several main quests that will send you across the zone. :)

Visual touches, the new weapons, the deeper trading and crafting systems will keep you busy for hours. This mod is highly addictive and my personal game of the year 2020. Strong recommendation.

It runs very stable and has good performance too which is quite an achievement considering the wealth of content!

Game the Game 3 the video game review: Pro gamer e-sports edition.

Okay, since game the game as a whole defies any ordinary review structure, I decided to just make a list of observations.

* The levels are impressive in size, enemy count and scope. How you managed to cram all this in a a single fpsc game while the lightmapper crashed on me every damn time I tried to lightmap my simple apartment level for AP2 is beyond me.
In fact, I will ask about that later.

* The modifications to the MP5 weapons are cool, however, using the default zoom and hurt sound effect is a mortal sin... unfortunately, some guns sound kinda ***, like the high pitch slide sound for the deagle and the fire sound for the
P90 and the AK.

* Zombies have different death animations which is cool.
* The trap music in the bunker level is ******* great!!

* There is a significant amount of models in this game, especially vehicles that are so damn ugly that I have to make a note of it. Seriously, some of these need to either be retextured or retired.

* The Area51 level is the first in the game but also the worst. There is a significant uptick in quality as the game goes on which is odd. :slight_smile: The A51 level is ugly as sin and somewhat boring. It also feels a lot more ******** than the rest of the game. Its just really the low point of the entire game. Luckily the subsequent levels are way better in both gameplay and look.

* The cutscenes are so ******* terrible that you can't help but watch them. They feel like a blend of a kid playing with action figures and early 2000s teenagers machinima attempts.

* I think this would have been far cooler if you asked us community members to record some enemy lines for you. As it is, you record all of them which gets grading as the game goes on. Even though they will eventually get funnier.
* The line about you killing all his "twin brothers" is a neat jab at how FPS games in general have repeating enemy models and then there is this part where they yell "kill him with the barrel". Many years ago I had a city interactive game, that was supposed to have a somewhat serious tone, where a barrel is also rolled at you and the guy on the radio goes "Barrel, look out bro, they go booom!" :P

* Speaking of city interactive... the jungle levels straight up look like earlier city interactive games which was impressive enough.

* The little scripted sequences are cool. Don't get me wrong, some are really creative and I like the build engine like stacking explosion effects...except for the cars, these are just awkward. The **** monster was a highlight though!

* Its a bit monotonous with all the human enemies having the same death SFX. You could have made like 3 variations for the sake of it there.

* Monsters are varied and interesting enough, even though the explosion eye monsters went on my nerves :P

* I think the difficulty was perfect for this type of game. Thematically it would have broken the flow and also the fun if you died in this type of game.

* I knew when I saw that ferrari in the villa that the player is gonna take it at the end. :slight_smile:
* 8000 Pesos ************!

* This makes me wanna see a slightly more serious project from you, I hope you'll consider it one day.

* The humour in this was so juvenile and stupid that I chuckled at some of it. It was just the perfect storm of complete *** that kinda took me back to hanging with my friends when I was like 13. Good times :P

* this is the first fpsc game of this length that never crashed.

In conclusion: Game the game 3 is so bad its good, but if you enjoy fpsc, a lot of it is also great. Its a great bad good game... and at times feels like a **** take on the fps genre from the 2000s era. I'm glad I tried it and I finished it in one sitting.

A bunch of random FPSC assets thrown together. I am not quite sure why this was made.

An atmospheric masterpiece.

Renders FPSC usable again and resurrects it from the dead.

I gotta admit that I am a sucker for police themed games, depressing introspective stories and horror elements. So this game ticks all the boxes for me but I can only recommend this mod.

Its pure quality with a surprising amount of features and visual flair. I had more funs with this than with most recent AAA shooters.

GMDX Version 9 is the mod you are looking for if you are either new to Deus Ex or wish to relive that classic.
It improves the game in every aspect without the drastic visual changes other mods have.
It truely is the definitive Deus Ex experience.

Its gorgeous, its weird, its dark and its different. I like it and the devs are really nice.
