So, my friends recently introduced me to a game called Duck Game, which is an Adult Swim game. If it's referencing anything, I'm still not sure. Shoot me if I'm an idiot... in-game of course. ^^;
The bio reads:
Enter the futuristic year of 1984, an age where ducks run wild in a frantic battle for glory. Blast your friends with Shotguns, Net Guns, Mind Control Rays, Saxophones, Magnet Guns, and much, much more. This is DUCK GAME. Don't blink.
We've managed to have exactly 4 players consistently, which is what the game calls for. I really love the lobby, which is 4 different rooms, one for each player. You can see what each of the players are doing, and they have to break the glass and jump into the middle when ready.
Sometimes they put a level that looks like the spawn room, and you have to fight in it.
The game is extremely fast paced, and you have to be ready as soon as the round starts. Sometimes you can also win by luck though.

There are a lot of fun features in the maps that you fight in. There are bounce pads, traps, fire pits, teleporters and more. You can even bounce weapons off the bounce pads, or shoot people through teleporters. Just make sure the teleporter doesn't lead to behind you... hehe
The amount of truly interesting guns in this game amazes me. There is even a suicide gun. If you pick it up and try to shoot someone, you will end up killing yourself, or the person behind you... There is a bible which lets you convert people, turning them into your player character, and giving everyone who converts a free point if they stay alive until the end.
And, there is also the mind control gun ;]
I would recommend this game to anyone who has friends they can play with, or doesn't mind joining into a lobby of random people. The game is total chaos, and you will find yourself laughing, begging for your life, screaming at your monitor, and maybe craving roast duck?
I managed to kill myself with a barrel mid-air (I'm the paper bag duck)
You can add mods into the game, which includes player made maps. Some of these maps are pretty hilarious. There is one map where if you die, your roast duck body shoots out a hole, and into Scout from TF2's hands, who is standing in front of a KFD sign. I'll let you guess what that stands for. ^^;
So far this game has been extremely enjoyable to play, and I'll definitely be coming back to it whenever I want a break from the competitive atmosphere.
