A "little" review of Gang Garrison 2. (The reason why this is in the game page is because It's what inspired me to make TM)


--BASIC INFO--

Gang Garrison is a very early TF2 fangame by mrfredman and MedO for the 2008 TIGSource.com 'Bootleg Demakes' competition (yeah 2008, that's BEFORE the Scout Update, so stuff like the Bonk! Atomic Punch didn't exist.)

--GAMEPLAY--

The gameplay is (admittedly) TF2 dumbed-down to a comical point. Each class has only one weapon and ammo regenerates. But all of the classes are there and they work like they should, Scout (renamed to Runner) is fast and has the Scattergun, the Rocketman (Soldier) has a Rocket Launcher and can rocket jump, the Firebug (Pyro) has the Flamethrower and can even airblast, the Detonator (Demoman) can place and detonate Stickybombs, the Overweight (Heavy, and yes they literally called him the OVERWEIGHT) has the Minigun and can even eat a Manvich, the Constructor (Engineer) has a Shotgun and can construct autoguns, the Healer (Medic) has the Medigun that both shoots needles and heals (along with Superburst), the Rifleman (Sniper) can headshot, and the Infiltrator (Spy) can fucking SUCK.

--GRAPHICS--

The game is done in a decent but charming pixel art style. The game looks at bit bad at times but it's charming, plus the proportions aren't half bad!

--AUDIO--

For starters, I'm a big hater of 8bit sound effects, but this game sounds pretty decent. And it has a lot of charming little chip tune covers of TF2 songs.

--CONCLUSIONS--

The game is.... Alright.

Dont get me wrong, I'm super glad this game exists otherwise, I wouldn't be sitting here on my ass, writing this dumb post.

So, yeah, if you wanna play GG2, you can but reminder: the game is dead and it has no bots, so get some friends to play with you if they resist your dumb shenanigans. (Or you have friends in the first place)

Been thinking of remaking the hud with a little more pre-planning.

Whipped up a quick Roxwell sketch to show off that I gave him a new hairstyle!

Made two header things for Assassination Sunday (A game @ThePyroCone is making)

I decided to try out a new, half-humanized object show art style (that still maintains aspects of my usual, angular style); pretty proud with what came out of it!

I made a logo for @ThePyroCone 's TacFortress 2

"100 Points"

this is like my first venture into modelling in blender, here's a kinda low-poly Beretta M9 (untextured because I don't really know how and it's 11pm and I don't wanna)

Tried to do a little something different to show the new TM class icons (Only did the offense for now)

Sorry this looks kinda shitty, I tried (and failed) to use a different video editor for this
