Super Soaker FPS

Post by isoaker_com » Sat Aug 26, 2006 8:48 pm

Super Soaker Championship

Check out the site and the game. Too bad the page is not available in an English version as well, but the controls look straight forward enough. Haven't tried it yet, but looks amusing enough (though I'm a little curious about some of the soakers that they have available in the game, especially their crossbow-water-balloon-launcher)

:cool:

Neat website. The screenshots are cool: http://www.netzwelt.de/news/74353-super ... ooter.html

This is something I'd love to try, but I'm unsure of the requirements until I read over the translation again.

This reminds me of the German version of SSC I was planning. Seems it would be a great idea if the German speaking folks are so numerous as to have their own FPS!

This is pretty sweet indeed--it's extremely unique, what with players with strange "masks" and what with the weird shot rendering. Also, the characters (if you read the pages) are pretty strange, but it would probably make for some interesting gameplay.

Have you ever wished you could speak German? I do now. At least there are online translation service, and here are the Google translate pages for each of the pages linked to above:

Apparently they updated it. They replaced the main map with 2 new maps (unfortuately you can't play the old one anymore at all) and the pools of water use pixel shader effects for refraction and reflection. I don't know what it looks like on a card that doesn't support it, and the shaders are rather glitchy. None of the effects are used on the actual water that comes from the gun, just the pools. The new maps seem to be somewhat more jumping around and avoid falling into water. You can go to the site and install the new version or try to let the program update it for you.
