Splinter Source… Redux?

WIP Platformer Based on Splinter Source

Zi-Xiao Liang wants me to tell you that he’s working on a new game based on one of his old games. Unfortunately, it’s not a remake of his top-down shooter Scientology PWNED, which ironically got PWNED pretty hard by Scientology. Instead, Mr. Liang is (probably wisely) choosing to base this game on Splinter Source, his side-scrolling 2d stealth platformer.

Hit the jump for five more screenshots of this as-of-yet-unnamed, no-release-date-set platform game which Zi-Xiao is describing as “Super Mario mashed with Splinter Cell, piled on Metal Gear Solid (and if the player chooses to do so, sprinkled with Contra).” Which is a recipe that makes either a Roast Awesomebeef or a Meatloaf of Disaster (hold the TIGERSauce). Let’s hope it’s the former!

Scientology PWNED… PWNED

Scientology PWNED... PWNED

Zi-Xiao Liang, creator of Scientology PWNED, has informed me that his game (in which you blow away the faithful followers of Xenu) was the target of local police, who are making him change the name of the game.

I don’t really have an opinion either way, but I suggest that the name of the game be changed to “American McGee’s Scientology PWNED,” therefore putting all the blame squarely on American McGee. And because we also need more games that have American McGee’s name in the title!

Tom Cruise = Dickface

Despite how simple and repetitive this game is, the graphics, effects, and music (by Everyday Shooter creator Jonathan Mak) really add a lot to the gameplay. I like how the screen shakes when you fire your weapons. Makes it really feel like your squeezing some heavy rounds out!

But where’s the Tom Cruise boss battle? You should have to blast each of the teeth off his shit-eating grin to reveal his alien brain.
