Apparently some guys have been working on a 2D sidescrolling Halo game called "Out With a Whimper." I'm not sure of all the details, but after five seconds of play I know there's multiplayer, character customization similar to Halo 3, and Marathon-style terminals.
Don't have an opinion on it yet, as I have not yet played it. It looks promising though. Real retro, which I dig.
Also I fucked up the title. lol.
E: Found a promotional video. Should give you a heads-up
I played it a bit. It was at that SAGE thing.
is it any fun?
Depends if you're into games like Cortex Command. It plays like a mix of that and Soldat. No terrain deformation, though.
This looks pretty cool, will download.
I liked it. It was kind of short, but the weapons stay pretty true to their halo counterparts, and some of the mechanics are the same.
I still don't know if I have to "log in" to access multilayer, or if that's even an available option yet.
E: Appears as if there's no multiplayer at this time but I'd imagine it's in the works.
How much like Soldat is this? I hated that game..
I like it.
Alright, terminals and a segment where you play as an elite. I'm sold.
Come to think of it, wasn't there a halo sidescroller in the works a few years back?
most likely.
This one actually seems to be going places though.
