Diesel Guns: Fans of Car Combat Rejoice!

Intenzibne LLC have recently started crowdfunding for Diesel Guns, an arcade car combat title, on IndieGoGo. They are looking to raise $5000. The first hundred ‘early birds’ can pick it up for $2 and those who arrive later will have to pay $4.

Diesel Guns looks and plays like a cross between Carmageddon, Twisted Metal and Unreal Tournament, so, unsurprisingly, it is a lot of fun.

The game offers 6 primary and 4 special weapons, 4 types of vehicles, a speed boost, a ground smash move that slams airborne cars into enemies that are below them, and multiple battle arenas. All of the weapons that are available in the demo have their own advantages and disadvantages, but I did find that some were more effective than others. The mortar, for example, is slow and has a small area of effect, rendering it useless against quick moving cars.

The combat is constantly fast paced and requires careful timing in order to take out pesky opponents. Nearby hills, crevices, buildings or caves can be used as evasive tools and exploring the best ways to take advantage of these environments is hugely rewarding.

A demo has been released which can be downloaded here.
