Blaze is a retro/minimalistic styled sci-fi first person flight/shooter action game. The game can be played almost single handedly with just mouse. It's about shooting a lot of alien things (in semi-randomized missions?). The alien things are trying capture all your base, and have already captured at least half of it. You have to defend the base and capture the alien controlled areas back. Or something like that...
So, here's some melee weapons I've done: Scythe, Drill, Some Lance and Sword.
The Scythe and the Sword would have a slow attack rate.. and the other two would have fast continuous attacks.
I'm thinking I would only use one of them.
If I used two, then one of them would be "crappy" and the other would be "good", but the "crappy" one would have so minimal use that having it would be kind of pointless.
Or if they both had (about) same Damage Per Second, it would be kind of pointless to have two, as they both would be pretty much the same.
What do you think.. which melee weapon would you like?
I could also do the drill blade with a smooth cylinder textured to look like a drill blade..
That "Some Lance" could have some energy glow effect around the blade.
