Bullet Train is a fast pace first person shooter about defending a train full of cargo from creatures in the harsh desert. Run up and down the train fighting off tumbleweed spiders and rock titans to try and keep your cargo in prime condition. At each station you reach you will be able to buy new weapons and upgrades as well as place turrets along the side of your train. You can use the turrets yourself to get right in on the action or just sit back and let your turret army take care of some of those critters for you. This was a student project done at Full Sail University with a 2 month design and 3 month development time frame to make the game.

This was a custom built engine that was built while making the game all in just 3 months.

I played it. It's quite fun. Maybe a bit too easy, but then again you can decide to carry fewer turrets. Well done! Multiplayer would be nice, but I guess it would lag?

Yes the games difficulty is all dependent on how you play. You'll get a higher score for taking a train car that has less turret spots making the game a lot more difficult but earning more at each station.

We did not have multiplayer just due to time restraints. We had the choice too but it would of involved cutting a lot of the weapons and some of the enemies so we chose to have them instead.

Perhaps however you could make an expansion pack? Just please, if you add multiplayer, don't leave the players with like just two levels to work with.

The engine feels quite like the engine used in Warsow, similar to Quake in a way, Looks quite the same as Warsow also, Nice Job!

Just a question about the trailer: why are you playing a PC shooter with a controller? And if you're not, why are you moving your mouse that way?

Also, this looks pretty cool. Any plans for multiplayer?

Masamuneto - since this is an university project, I don't expect them to update the game on the long run. However, if you like shooting on rails, you might also try Fistful or Frags. That's what this game reminded me of, even though the only thing in common is the perhaps the trainride.

this has a really big potential. add coop and lobby system, achivments, proper animations, and some intersting maps. maybe some classes like gunner or sniper medic would be a good idea too. you could make loads of cash on steam i tell you.

Achievements are actually already present in the game : D! Just pause during the game to check out the list available also every-time you replay the game 10 new achievements become available! It can be quite a challenge to get them all!
