No, it's not the classic first-person shooter that we all know and love. Doomed is a top-down shooter, so you can see how it's totally different. The description says it's like Smash TV meets Gauntlet, and I'd have to agree. It also says the levels are randomly generated, which is cool, although one of the levels I saw was so devilishly constructed I would never have guessed it was computer generated. Each room I entered would lock the doors behind me inside a room filled with baddies, and eventually I met my end. Luckily, you can upgrade your gear between levels (that seems to be a popular feature lately!) which should help tilt the odds in your favor. Lock and load! |
