The object of the game is to knock all your opponents in the round off the platforms without being knocked off yourself! Players start each round out with a limited number of lives and are able to pick up variety of weapons and pick ups throughout the game. Whatever team or player survives the longest receives a point, the round is restarted, and the mayhem starts again. The only way to "kill" an opponent is to force them off the map's platforms; however, the less life an opponent has the farther out they will fly when they are hit by weapons. In order for players to fly back to the map's platforms, they are equipped with...

Report article Master Blasters Goes Commercial!

Due to the overwhelming popularity of Master Blasters (and the underwhelming amount of money in our wallets), we have decided to go commercial. This has been a long time plan of our team and as entrepreneurs of the gaming industry, we feel that this is the best course of action in this mod's development.

Due to the overwhelming popularity of Master Blasters (and the underwhelming amount of money in our wallets), we have decided to go commercial. This has been a long time plan of our team and as entrepreneurs of the gaming industry, we feel that this is the best course of action in this mod's development.

Many questions have come up around this decision, one of the more popular being, "How are you guys able to sell this product so quick? It just came out literally like three weeks ago." The answer to that question is simple, corporate sponsorship. With the right selection of team members, we have pulled investment from friends and family, but more importantly, famous celebrities.

Right from the source. New Low Price!

With their help and your support, we feel that this decision will not only benefit our investors but your gaming experience as well. With the being said, we look forward to see our game on the shelves real soon!

I thought It was illegal to charge money for any mod? Am I mistaken, have the laws changed, or are you guys headed for trouble?

I think it's good to have a little humility when it comes to creating a game. So in that respect, I don't mind the negative comments, haha. I wouldn't spend $20 bucks on it myself, nor would I expect anyone else to! Although I appreciate the support skyewing.

As for legal issues, yes, you are right (sort of). It's not illegal to charge money for a mod as Garry's mod has done it and for what I know, they aren't all behind bars, but it is illegal to sell a game that uses textures/models from other games. In this case, Master Blasters uses custom third-party textures/models that were not created in-house so therefore, we do not own it. We're a pretty laid-back group of guys, so you can expect Master Blasters to always be free and our wallet always to be empty.

That is...unless I receive a phone call from Valve some day. ;-)
