Static first person shooting

Overkill is a first person shooter that uses shooting gallery mechanics.

On the surface, Overkill is a post-apocalyptic first person shooter that requires players to shoot everything on screen. But what Overkill really happens to be is a shooting gallery game with lots of blood. Players move a static image of different guns around the screen and fire at emerging enemies.

The game contains 100 rounds and 18 weapons to use. These weapons can be customized in various ways like longer magazines, front grips for stability, and different scopes. Weapons have to be purchased, but Overkill entices players by giving demos during rounds with limited ammunition.

Overkill does not actually contain a lot of animation and uses an enemy aimed timer system before they fire at you. Enemies fall to the ground quickly and fade out before the next set slides or appears behind cover. The blue circle counts down before enemies fire their weapons. In early rounds, single fire rifles can make short work, but later rounds definitely require new weapon purchases.

The challenge of Overkill is to earn money as fast as possible, purchase new weapons, and somehow survive the different enemy types. Even though it is simplistic, there is an addictive feel to the game, trying to survive a lot of rounds.

What might be the only problem is the accuracy of using a finger to move the gun icon around the screen. It is difficult to retain good aim and common to take fire before defeating the enemy. Since this is the majority of the gameplay experience, it can become annoying to have an enemy lined through the sights and still not affect him.

Even though the experience can be a little shallow, Overkill is fun to play in bursts. Grinding through the entire game would become frustrating though.

Overkill is a decent FPS clone, but could use a little more variety.
