Recently, I've seen a freeware clone of the most popular online fps game ever through FPSBANANA. COUNTER STRIKE: 2D. Yup, that's right, 2D. It's not a first person shooter, it's just a clone of one. Instead of first-person, it's in top-view, the same as that of some online flash games, except this one can be played offline, and even without steam, and it's 100% legal. It uses some kind of flash engine called Unreal Software Engine. (Of course it's not the Unreal Tournament engine, Noob!)
You can download it here: www.cs2d.com Now, let's talk about its gameplay. Counter Strike- 2D : has the same modes, except for domination and Capture the flag. You could even play a 2D zombie mod offline. You could also create your own maps, not through a Hammer Editor*, silly. You get to create 2D maps and you have a wide selection of tiles: the 2D version of 3D items, textures and all that ORIGINAL stuff. Creating your own map here is far from creating maps through the Hammer Editor. Creating one with the Hammer Editor will take hours or even days to finish, while creating 2D Maps with CS:2D's built-in map editor will take no longer than two minutes, 10 minutes at maximum,because even a 5-year old could make these 2D maps. Oh, did I mention the game audio? It's almost the same with the original game, but it still lacks something.... Something.... ORIGINAL. Some gun sounds are different, and some are the same as of that in the original. How about the buy menu, you ask? Ugly, Low-Detail vguis*. The Conclusion: For a free game that's only 6mb and has a fast installation, it's worth the download. Give it a try! For me, I'll give it 5.5/10.0. Here's a screenshot:
