Description
WOODPUNK is a fast-paced action game, set in the Middle Ages but using futuristic weaponry and tools. In WOODPUNK, the player can fight against well over a hundred enemies onscreen at a time, using over 1400 different weapons, which are generated procedurally by the game from unlockable weapon parts. With both melee and ranged combat, random and fully destructible levels, several game modes and co-op multiplayer, we are sure that it will be widely enjoyed by any action game enthusiasts out there!
History
WOODPUNK was born in the 36th Ludum Dare, featuring the theme "Ancient Technology". Phil González and Sergio Suárez, who had previously done another LD together, set up for a second attempt.
This attempt was a failure, however, as they didn't manage to deliver the game in time. But the idea was clear and it was fun: An action game with procedurally generated weaponry, and a difficulty curve involving romping up the number of enemies instead of their strength.
So here we have it: WOODPUNK. Battling over a hundred enemies on screen, chaos everywhere and fully destructible enviroments to boot!
