CARNAL
CARNAL is a fast and challenging old-school shooter taking loving inspiration from the 90’s greats made on the Quake and Build Engine.
Enter a strange world filled with mysteries, conspiracies, and paranormal activity.
Mixing classic FPS action with an unsettling horror atmosphere, every episode and unique level will keep you on the edge.
As a chad member of the Realm Defense Force, take on the terror organization known as the Sons of Anak, who have opened portals to the “other side” throughout the city of Seed Valley. Once there they plan to extract Dark Matter in order to build weapons of mass destruction.
Destroy their soldiers and operations, as well as any “other” hostile entities that plan on stopping you.
Be warned: the world looks a lot different on the “other side”, and it also probably smells bad.
FEATURES:
- 3 Episodes with 17 total missions
- Diverse human and monster enemies that will murder you
- Various guns that are harmful to your health
- Keycards, swimming, secrets, and pick-ups
- Several unique boss enemies to ruin your pace
- Unique retro art style
- An archaic Extra Lives system that keeps you going
- Two difficulty modes for those who like to measure things
- Terrible/offensive humor and game design
- An atmosphere and feel unearthed from 1996

Best 99 cents I've spent. Pretty decent retro game!

Great game and has around 3 hours of content for $0.49 on sale. The raygun is (probably intentionally?) grossly overpowered. Normal difficulty wasn't too bad, I think I only died once. Some people are complaining about the lack of a save feature, but the levels are around 5-10 minutes long, so saves aren't really necessary considering all of the levels are available right from the start. Also the humor was pretty fun and it was hard to tell if some of it was satire or not (which is the mark of good satire).

I don't know what's the deal with the pricing of this game, it's cheaper than a loaf of bread over here, I feel like I'm stealing from the developer. Because of this, I first thought this was a low effort cash grab but it's actually pretty decent. Tons of cool environments like a school, carnival, small urban areas etc. Sometimes it reminds me of Serious Sam the way it let's you loose in a huge environment and allows you to circle strafe away from danger, minigunning far away enemies.
Play it, it's not perfect but there are much worse games out there with the same price tag.
