This game redefined the FPS genre for me. I don’t know how I was able to live before I played this. 6.73 out of a possible 5 stars.
FINALLY! an FPS that is honest about whats in peoples heads (and other places) when they play gun games.
and the rpg launcher really is a game changer!
Hilarious theme, I never considered the possibility of a masturbatory fugue state before.
Why did you give it a welsh title, though?
it’s not welsh, it’s from finnegan’s wake, u philistine!! :( :( :(

rpg launcher! :D
Hahah.. love the transition and mood change!
Dug the music too… did one of you write it or if not–who is it?
cheers – and yep the music is ours
For a moment there, I thought the game was actually reading my mind.
Creepy.
Wow, check out these guns!
This is a great piece of work from both you guys – has the slick smoothness of Terry’s mechanics, and the unsettling edginess of Stephen’s dialogue. And it’s hilarious to boot.
Grade A+!
The dialogue is entirely by Mister Joyce. I shall forward on your note of appreciation to his estate.
Alright, this game is kicking my ass. I’m either:
A) Not landing a shot on them
B) Getting boxed in and STILL not land a shot on them despite them being 10 inches from my hand
Must be our highly advanced AI kicking your ass.
Ah of course it is – Finnegans Wake is probably the only Joyce book I’ve missed out on… Must read it now!
Maybe you could do a follow-up using the bawdy lyrics of some of the Canterbury Tales… Actually there’s a pageant for you hehe.
Haha! I got to the next gun once! … then I died. I’ll have to try it again when I have more time, now that I know that at least it’s POSSIBLE to get to the next part.
I’m curious, it seems to be difficult to aim. Does the placement (position) of my pixel gun matter when shooting? Like, do I need to have my target centered or do I just need to have them in front of me?
Jasper’s comment flusters me, because the only dialogue I’ve seen is the one where you die… (sigh)
It’s possible that there’s something wrong going on with the game on your PC. What operating system do you have? (RAM/processor speed might also impact things) –
the game isn’t meant to be difficult.
Aiming is pretty loose – having them roughly in the middle of the screen suffices. Keeping a distance is probably the most important thing.
Okay, that is a clever pun right there.
I haven’t missed a shot, yet. I don’t know what you’re all talking about.
That music’s awesome! And the RPG changer is great fun!
I just realized I don’t have to aim. I still can’t beat it though.
