Gaming: FaceWound



This is a side-scrolling zombie shooting game. The graphics are impressive too but I'm not sure where exactly the trouble comes i for your PC and it's ability to be able to run it. There's nothing too fierce here that would cause your computer to explode IMO.

The music that comes up when you open the game is wicked, it'd been nice if they could of followed it through into the gameplay, but I suppose it was just developer intro song. The actual audio in this game is impressive for what comes across as essentially a superior flash game. I say this because if it's free to download from the source site then I wonder if they gamers are making any money from it.

Aiming in this game is very easy to do and the shooting of zombiefied citizens is equally easy to execute. Plus if you get the zombies 2 times in the head they're down. Nice one. Some other variations of zombies take a few more shots. Oh and birds are bitch.
You can collect plutonium from kills that...well I'm not sure what it does. I never actually saw any ammo clips get picked up so I'm assuming that ammo is restored due to pretty hard to see clips or that the plutonium gives you ammo.

Now I'm not sure if it was due to my own control set up, but when your character dies, a strange matrix of abnormal frames appear.
I'm not sure if this is on purpose or if it's a glitch. Cos it buggers up your game.
Example:
I had a checkpoint and died later on when a horde of demonic giant ass bugs bombarded me. But no matter what key I pressed it wouldn't bring me back to the checkpoint or load it. The only button that worked was the ESC key and from there I had to start again. Load didn't contain the checkpoint.
Now I have to say your character is pretty funny looking. Maye it's the maddened baring of teeth or maybe it's because I'm not sure what ethnicity he's suppose to be. Is he suppose to be black? I'm really not too sure and I suppose it doesn't matter. He's kicking ass all alone!

The zombies range from haggered repeated citizens, crazy birds that are annoying, acid spewing yellow spurge creatures, an alien eye bugling bublle thing and a top hat wearing zombie on stilts??
If you're after something fun, quick and free for your PC I'd advise you to try this. It ticks all of the above. I'm still playing it now.

5/5
