24th Dec 1999:  -glitter- hurts his back ...
__________________________________________________________________________________
 
       
    
... but still manages to release gl.tter's Q2GUNFRENZY!-2- for download in time
for Christmas!

GUNFRENZY!-2- adds 3 new ARCADE 2000 game modes to -glitter-'s original
ACT LABS GS (http://www.act-labs.com/gun1.htm) compatible lightgun Quake2
modification.

The new 1-player, 2-player and John Woo style 1-player modes feature -glitter-'s
revolutionary intelligent automatic camera system that moves through supported
levels like classic arcade lightgun shooters, but tracks GUNFRENZY!-2-'s randomly
generated monsters with ease for endlessly varied and highly dynamic gameplay.

Players will even be able to create their own 'missions' soon, complete with
customised camera paths and scripted events.

The original Q2GUNFRENZY!, released on the 14th Oct '99 in version 1.0  under the
>RIL_ banner (http://r-i-l.net), marked the first ever lightgun enabled
First-person shooter game.

Its original 3 game modes, still available in GUNFRENZY!-2-, feature manual
player movement control and the use of one of the GS guns to aim.  The addition of
the automatic camera modes and 2-player option completes the genesis of a whole
new game genre - the First Person Lightgun Shooter.


Full details (including downloads, screenshots, -glitter-'s notes about the mod's
origin etc.) are now on-line at http://gl.tter.org/frenzy/ .


Note that whilst the ACT LABS GS PC lightgun system is required to play
GUNFRENZY!-2-, anyone can download the mod and view the included demos to see
first-hand how lightguns can revolutionise First-Person-Shooter games.

-glitter- can be reached at gl@gl.tter.org.
