About the Game

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU ARE SENSTIVE TO FAST MOTION,FLASHING LIGHTS, LOUD SOUNDS, AND VIOLENCE.

CORE is a "Retro" style fps or rather fpp [first person puncher?] about a robot going into the earth and destroying it from the inside out. The gameplay is level based with many waves of enemies housed within them. Every fourth level of an Act you will fight and destroy an Earth Core.

If you want a game that you can just turn your brain off and hit things to, this is the game for you.

Basic gist of the gameplay vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Kill a wave of enemies in a set location > either a button, or the wave itself will open a door to the next section > and finally the last wave will tend to be harder than the rest [or easier depending on how long the level is]. Also, there are no check-points in any level, meaning if you die, you need to completely restart the level.

None of the levels have “map hazards”: but some will have gimmicks like lowered gravity and giant towers you need to climb.

There also aren't any difficulty setting, so the difficulty is set to how I think it should be as the developer.

The music is mainly intense and fast paced, if you are sensitive to that type of music PLEASE don't play my game or just turn it off, it is not necessary.
