World War 3 - 13th Anniversary Edition

An unfinished game I made in 2009 has been finalised, remastered and released after 13 years!

I've added a tonne of quality of life updates to it, as well as major gameplay changes while still keeping the absurd visual & audio style of the original.

The story:

A Japanese troop randomly kills an Aussie soldier in the year 2084, causing a world war for some reason.

Since it's illegal for Aussies to fight back in self defence, the entire Australian army is wiped out except for you.

Will you fight back anyways? Or will you obey the law?

It's all up to you...

Here's the full list of changes, well at least the ones I can recall at the moment:
