    The Last Level
    Created by Asper49

    This was it - the final battle. After months of conflict the team of 8 heroes had arrived at the lair of their nemesis, END BOSS. They'd fought through 157 levels of eclectic game design incorporating 2D side-scrolling, the entirety of the Doom franchise (including Final Doom), Pokemon trading via wifi connectivity and elements of traditional western RPG character levelling, all featuring fully hand-drawn textures. Standing before END BOSS's gigantic abode, they reflected for a moment on how far they had come since they set out from Hobbiton.

    Meanwhile, inside his lair END BOSS was hatching a plan to deal with the story's heroes once and for all. After receiving word from his dark pigeons, he already knew he was facing a band of very high level prestige class characters. Turning to his minions, he announced in a baritone voice, "It's time for some PvP, so start buffing fools. Pray to god you don't let me down, or they'll unlock the invincibility cheat and we'll get it handed to us repeatedly for a week. Now listen up, I've got a plan. I get in a tank, and you guys run around a bit firin' ur gunz. That's about it. Oh and remember I want many whelps on the left side..."

    Back outside, the combatants entered the lobby to prepare for stage one. Would they defeat END BOSS? Did they remember to save their game!?


    _________________________________________________

    In The Last Level everyone starts out with 3 lives. The defending team has a VIP, a tank and of course many whelps on the left side. The VIP is the "Boss" and the "Whelps" are his weak minions. The Boss is the only one who can drive the tank.

    The "Hero" (attacking) team doesn't have a VIP and they spawn outside where they pick their class. They then go through a teleporter which takes them into the tunnel inhabited by the Boss. After the Boss is killed for the first time he spawns in the second stage area, where he waits for the Heroes to enter.

    After the Boss dies a second time the Heroes go through another teleporter and end up in the third stage area, a large room. In this room the boss has a choice - he can go for the custom power up which gives him Vampirism (allowing him to leech health), but which also does minor damage to him when he isn't inflicting any damage; or he can ignore the custom powerup and fight without it.

    Will he be defeated?

    This looks pretty sweet! and that video had some pretty good resolution, and really well put together. The game looks pretty fun if you get enough people to play it.
    I really like the class choice option! I think it adds a lot to the game play, as you are able to control the variation/change every time you play it.

    Great story line and equally great execution. Very well done. I will have to give this game a shot next time I have a party.

    My favorite moments when playing the game is shen you start the game and the teams are in the wrong spawns.

    Very innovative idea... I liked the video; the wall of small crates getting blasted away by the tank... so epic.

    And Shock Theta, the intro was great.
    So many different references, HOLY CRAP

    Really unique idea and excellent execution/post! I'm really looking forward to playing this with a large group.

    It must have taken forever to perfectly block off all the exits!! :squirrel_wink:
