Title: [AGBIC] CATTLEFIELD: Tactical Unit Bovine

Story:

It wasn't long after the Meat Packing Uprising began that it escalated into the Slaughterhouse Skirmishes, which eventually gave way to the brutal and delicious Beef Wars.

Fight vagrant slave humans, sentient ham, the cow insurgency and wall-clipping green mushrooms as the newest squad member of the Bovine Mobile Forces' elite tactics unit. You'll have to access to the latest technology in pasture combat, such as bacon bombs.

Plan:

My goal is to finish the first stage/level/scenario for competition release and then do the rest of the game after. If I can. :tired:

Tagline:

"Fall of man. Rise of cow."

This looks amazing! Brings to mind Earthworm Jim.

@Inanimate: I like the comparison. This calls for some investigation into Earthworm Jim's pixel arts...

Thanks for the positive comments, everybody. Good to know it's looking interesting to other people :) Doing interface stuff right now. There will be actual gameplay soon. Maybe.

Any critical insight offered is very appreciated!

I like some of the weapon names - "painsaw" and "assharp" are pretty funny.  :)
