Star Fox, a game that has been on my radar a lot lately, has just seen another mod. This time, wireframe mode. What is great is the additions the fans put into this mod. Recent mods have been implemented making this quite a treat to check out.
When I first read the headlines on this one, I was concerned. How will the more complex enemies look? Will they be recognizable? Will the game be fun still? The answer is yes and yes.
The smaller enemies are the ones that lose something in the conversion. The larger ones are clear and easily recognizable. Due to their size, their loss of basic shaded polygons is not a deal breaker. Those little ones though, they are boogers to pick out without their color and shading.At least they are still extremely easy to dispatch.

Check out the video above, Wireframe Star Fox is a marvel to see in action. So much to take in with his new visual mode that it is almost disorientating to a degree.
