Since 2009 I have been trying to build Onslaught as a standalone game. At first It was a doom mod only, but was not that good. Later on it got better, but didn't really get good till 2019. By then the random map generators I was using had gotten so good, that making a real game with great design was possible. It wasn't possible at first. I relied on random map generators because I suck at mapping. I am ok at scripting though, and even though I based the ideas on realm667 enemies/weapons, I did alter at least a few of them to be more like our idea.
The Concept for the game is post apocalyptic. You play as a cyborg mercenary named bastard, who is half man, half machine, and is a metalhead, musical taste wise. This basically makes him turn into a total badass that fights this insane cult that is threatening to end the world using nuclear weapons and mutations created in labs. That's where the enemies come in, they are absolutely nasty, and they require special "cyborg powers" to be effectively used to survive.
With the prsss of a key, you can trigger cyborg powers such as movment speed boost, health regen and temporary invulnerability. These can help you survive the hard fights, the games use, that devolve the combat into slaughterfest gameplay. By the end of Onslaught 1, the game becomes a slaughterfest and onslaught II and III really use them often.
The game is developed with free to use content from the doom engine, including free to use sprites and textures, free to use weapons and enemies and such. The Music and some sounds have been done by me. The voice of bastard, is my doing as well. He says a lot of one liners, which are funny. Overall, this game/tc ius really fun and should be played if you like doom.
