The original Metal (AKA Metal Killer) is an arena based FPS that was programmed by Josh Klint and published by Idigicon in 2002.
Metal Redux was my attempt at updating the game for modern operating systems and was intended as a vertical slice demo for the publisher.
I programmed the game from scratch, whilst using assets from the original game, and it marks my first use of a timer system for rendering at variable frame rates. It also includes several new gameplay mechanics, alongside controller support and a two player split screen mode.
