Description : A weird, interesting take on the Invasion/Horde modes so

popular lately.

Each game is divided into five sixty-second rounds. In between

rounds,
a little slot machine in your HUD rolls, deciding the rules for
the
next round. Will you be fleeing Barons in low gravity, or
running
over hobos in a tank? Will you be lobbing petrol bombs at Imps,
or taking magical weaponry to creepy neo-furry manchildren? The
choice, for once, is not up to you.

Expansion One adds a whopping twelve new rules, three new

bosses, two
maps, co-op play support, and more dogs than strictly
necessary.

Expansion Two adds nine new reels, five new maps, new gameplay
mechanics
like Superweapons, terrifying secrets and still even more dogs.

Expansion Three adds six new reels, seven new maps, three new
bosses,
improved modding capabilities and two new modes, including the
adrenaline-pumping Boss Rush!

WEAPONS AND ITEMS:

The Evanger SMG's can no longer be selected when ammo is empty, and the dualies
will take precedence when auto-switching from an empty gun.
Thrown barrels don't become solid until the player that threw them step away from
them, to avoid getting stuck when throwing them straight.
The Explosive Shotgun now has a proper pickup sprite.

MONSTERS:
Revenants now shoot their missiles a bit higher up, to emulate the original
mechanism from Doom II.
Car crashes should now trigger Birthday Explosions during the proper reel.
Crushed monsters no longer create infinite goo.
Sectoid attacks reworked: ~2 sec life, can hurt other aliens, can't hurt bosses but
player psionics can.
Whoopsy's vomit will keep spraying out of its mouth instead of magically angling
towards the target

BOSSES:
Bosses now become immortal when the player dies in single-play (bosses now get the
TID 906 to accommodate this)
Fixed MacGuffin missing some damage resistances.
Fixed a bug where the Wizard would do his sight bark twice.

MAPS:
JRPGVille now has co-op starts and a roomier boss area that's easier for the bigger
monsters to path around in.

MISC:
The smoke/effects toggle script will now turn off raindrops (but will not silence
the ambient rainfall sounds).
Disabled X/Y Billboarding due to visual glitches on 3D terrain
Completely rebuilt the system for radius-based instakill crushing (tank, JERKs
etc.)
