  • Dude has the sound effects that vibe as hard as McGun's stare. Straight away from the intro, I know McGun is a certified badass weapon. Boom Dropped the mic, entered the comic book intro, and everything is confirmed: I am McGun, the Badass Gun, and I'm breaking out of jail. What an intro! Then the music changes up, and the mood shifts to gameplay. The aiming mini-game was really fun; the combination of WSAD and the mouse gave me the feel I needed to practice this game and compliment its precision. A good balance was struck between challenging and satisfying! Background and assets all added such a cool feel to match the vibe of the intro as I used the space bar to manoeuvre my way around the obstacles. Also, I took note of all the small details, such as having only one bullet and the feeling that gives. Also, the moving empty bullet slots gave me an urgency to find more ammo. This game took me right back to something I can't put my finger on because honestly I think this felt very unique yet nostalgic at the same time. Thank you for this submission. Great game!  I liked being able to turn upright, right R, if I fell, fitting for a hero of the story to be able to pick himself up, I thought. I did have some difficulty in jumping in the very first stage. Text on the wall helped with immersion also and with learning the game without reading GDD. I found the first stage a little too challenging when it came to the parkour (this could be the controls feeling a little stiff sometimes), but it does state this is a challenging game in the GDD. I would like to see different difficulty levels also.

Summarise your game!
Steel McGun is a challenging action game where you play as a sentient weapon seeking revenge. The gameplay features erratic aiming, mid-air jumps that consume bullets, and destructible boxes to clear the path. You must carefully manage your ammo to survive. The story unfolds through comic-style cinematics, with simple controls focused on precision and timing. The cartoonish art style and Newgrounds-inspired design bring a fun and quirky vibe to the intense gameplay.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
You are literally a weapon that was used in a bad way and seeks revenge.

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
Sorry for my english in the GDD.
