Hi,

Here's a small stupid game I made over the weekend. Featuring online play, chat and a big yellow SWATTER this is good clean family entertainment.

Give it a go and get SWATTING. And if you do please post if you actually manage to connect to a game...

* UPDATED NOW WITH MANUAL CONNECT AND CONFIGURABLE GAME PORT *
Download SWAT_Beta5.exe (~620Kb) Windows only for now...

And the obligatory boring screenshots:


If there is no game server available when you try it, you can start a new game which other people may join (unless you are behind a router or something which blocks connections). Unfortunately I cannot create a game server myself for these reasons, so I'll be lurking, waiting for someone to start one I can join :D

It uses both GNet and GNet...I'm confused too, so don't worry :)

Some of the dudes on IRC tried it out, and we had a good bashing :)

[edit]Oh, type "/nick newname" while playing to change your name... or anything else to insult someone... Esc will quit the game, returning you to the menu[/edit]

[edit again]If nobody joins a game you create, you are probably on a computer that doesn't accept incoming connections[/edit again]
