Thunder Gun

WARNING: This game contains bright flashes, and people who are photosensitive should take caution while playing or just not play Thunder Gun at all

Thunder gun is my submission to the Shocking Competition. I started working on it Sunday June 14th, and ended it on Saturday June 20th. It's now been completely revamped and has online highscores and 37 achievable trophies!

The idea is to score HUGE points by shocking the living crap out of drones, and the infamous Fat Mutant Cat o' Nine Tails. Chain combos and Hit Streaks can keep you alive too! MAKE SURE YOU HOLD DOWN THE MOUSE TO CHARGE THE THUNDER GUN, or this game won't be any fun to you.

Using Tesla Coils, Health Packs, and your trusty Thunder Gun and Pistol, you must survive!

Fear NOT: You are expected to do terrible your first few rounds. Thunder Gun is a very difficult game to master.

------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------

NOTICE:

  I love the new level. maybe it is just because I am not use to it, but it seems harder to play and do well on (good thing). This is my favorite game right now, and that includes every game from tether-ball to TF2.

  When I Quick Play it says that /my/ personal best is somebody elses. I.E. It tells me that my best is 2,667,360 points, which is actually done by jsruesch. :)
  
  Otherwise, excellent implementation of datastorage and highscores. :)

  It should be fixed now, and I'm glad you like the implementation!

  You did a great job with the new stuff, man! It all works and fits perfectly into the game. Can't wait to see what else you do with it. Also, I completely stink at this game. -_-

  2.9 million with a 515 hit streak. I have every achievement. It should probably be noted that I am unemployed...

  I was just playing this again to get some more trophies and thought it would be great if you added a (online) multiplayer mode(s), like maybe co-op or a mode where you see who can survive the longest. I doubt it would be too hard to do so, I personally can do m-play functions in GM pretty well.

  This game was probably the most fun I've had playing a platformer shooter, ever.
  
  The Achievements API integration was smooth as hell too, and the achievements were done in a very clever way in that some were easy and some were near impossible (at least for a noob like me!). The unexpected ones filled me with joy; I smiled really hard when I found the electric rain.
  
  I really hope this was in the top 100 GM games of 2009.
  Excellent Job! |:3
  
  P.S. I don't get why people accuse me of copying Ashley...
