DUCK DOOM FAQ
=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Note: answers which contain game spoilers are written backwards.



Q: Okay, first question. Why isn't the BFG9000 in Duck Doom?

A: I wanted to get this game done ASAP, and figured 6 other weapons would be plentiful enough.


Q: Why is the fist in there if it doesn't do anything?

A: Because it's funny to punch at the ducks! Oh, and, it DOES do something...


Q: Are there any secret Easter Eggs?

A: Yes, some minor ones.


Q: What about cheat codes?

A: ***** .omma dna snug lla rof edoc taehc nietsnefloW cissalc eht gnisu yrT .enif ,yakO ?yna deen yllaer uoy oD *****


Q: How many rounds are in the game? Is there an ending?

A: ***** .neercs revo emag a tsuj ,gnidne on si ereht tub ,sdnuor evif ytnewt era erehT *****


Q: What is the Duck Doom.dat file for?

A: It remembers your high score. However it uses a string encryption method I designed, so you might NOT want to try messing with it.


Q: Will you make upgrades or sequels to Duck Doom?

A: No, unless any bugs show up, then I'll fix them.


----------


Q: How did you make this game?

A: With Game Maker v5.3a by Mark Overmars (http://www.gamemaker.nl). Graphics were captured using VirtuaNES and WinTex, and sounds with VirtuaNSF and Goldwave. All the GML game coding was done by me.


Q: Did it take long?

A: I've been learning and practicing Game Maker for several months, but Duck Doom took less than a week, at just a couple hours a day.


Q: Where did you get the idea?

A: I wish it were my own. I saw a Duck Hunt / Doom mockup in a forum user's signature at OverClocked ReMix, thought about it for 3 seconds, and said "I can make that!" Although I'm probably not the first to try making this game, I know I have made it well and hope it succeeds.


Q: Cool, nice work, are you making any other games?

A: Yes, I'm working on a ZELDA spinoff game for two players. Currently it's at about 50-60% finished. Since my game designing time is costly, it will probably be my last game.


Q: Can I contact you concerning Duck Doom or any other topic?

A: Absolutely, e-mail spotandsmudge@yahoo.ca, but keep in mind that's my secondary address which I only check every few days.
