Get your gory kicks, like it's 1996!

UPDATE: Can you hear the blood spattering the walls around you? Ok, then turn down the sound effects for a bit. Now you should be able to hear ToyTree's explosive tunes while you're strafing away from danger. Or you can just grab the <span class="bold">Soundtrack</span> separately and enjoy all 23 tracks at your own pace. Boom.

<span class="bold">STRAFE&reg;</span>, a fast-paced, roguelike first-person shooter with plenty of guts, gusto, and gung-ho attitude, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com!

The monsters are charging you in droves, your weapons are becoming more and more ridiculous, and the levels rearrange themselves every time you die. Or maybe not - it's hard to tell when there's so much blood spatter in your eyes. But who needs a map, when you've got wicked instincts and insane mobility?

Watch the trailer.

I will play it and tell you if it´s good. Will need a day, though

EDIT: Something is wrong here. Downloaded the game. Now my library says it will be released in 15 min. Maybe they uploaded a wrong version???

From the opening post:

Laberbacke: STRAFE® ALSO INCLUDES:
Gun upgrades that turn your average tool of death into an outright Holocaust machine
(From the store page)

Wow, really? You can kill Jews in this game?
INB4 someone calling me a Nazi.
Got to agree, bad choice of word. The English language has a whole wealth of words which would have worked better.
Looks like Strafe® strafed out itself :)

Yeah looks like it. I'll keep watching the awesome Movie Trailer until the download links are fixed.
They set up the release countdown to 1h 50min. Seems that someone made a mistake with the early release. :p
Any second now...
The Windows version is here, still waiting for MAC version ... :D

The movie trailer is just awesome!!
I thought this was suppose to be some retro style shooter. Looks like another indie game that has a creator who has no idea how a mid '90s game actually looked.
Visually it looks like rubbish. Not in a "not realistic enough" sense, but it just looks cheap, like a weekend Unity project of one guy. Doom in GZDoom looks way better than this. It looks nothing like any 90's FPS I've ever seen.

Still waiting for the Mac installer and Preorder bonus weapon.

I've got a review pending but in the meantime here's a quick summary:

Three key flaws:

1. Artificial bullet spread. Fine for slow cover shooters, a mess in a high speed bunny hopping rocket jumping 90s FPS.

2. RPG stats that impose "virtual incompetence" like the aforementioned bullet spread.

3. Unnecessary and broken clip mechanics. If you hit the reload button with a partially full clip, you throw out the remaining bullets. If you hit secondary fire without enough bullets in the clip to pay for a grenade, you automatically reload and throw out the remaining bullets.

Wait for word of these things getting patched out before buying.

Wait about 5 minutes and refresh your account and all the Mac files should be there :)
