Cosmic Rapture is a four-month mod developed by myself under the watchful eye of some mentors at the Vancouver Film School. It was created for a final project in order to graduate with my Game Design Diploma. I certainly didn't want to create something that only the staff at VFS would see and play...
...so I made a fairly detailed mod for UT2004; a contra-esque side-scroller shooter that's multiplayer compatible, and am hosting this site online for people to come and download it. Cheers! The main site is at Student.vfs.com
Now, a week until graduation, I'm releasing this mod for everyone to enjoy. It's only a 33 meg zip; just unzip it and put the folder in your UT2004 folder, then run the shortcut (Any additional troubleshooting is included in the readme.txt).
Take a look at the Screenshots, and give it a few runs. Play it online with your friends. It has a quick learning curve from Unreal into Cosmic Rapture, and a steep Difficulty curve to challenge even the best players by the end. Give it a try, and tell me how you liked it. I doubt you'll be disappointed with its quality.
...and if you are disappointed, let me know anyways. It won't change, but I'm just as eager to post negative feedback as I am positive feedback. Who knows? It might make my future games better by making less mistakes.
