so that one can see more enemies in the visible world much easier. Cannon Fodder does that.
Cannon Fodder is one of my favourites.
I don't know what makes it so addictive but I shall try to pinpoint some of the things that combine to make an overall enjoyable game.
* Simple controls
* Simple to understand
* Contains Humour
* More than one way to accomplish tasks.
* Nice visuals (3D ? what 3D??)
* Nice sounds (Very simple yet atmospheric)
* And probably many more things.
I sometimes like to do crazy things in games like jump off a cliff on purpose just to see what happens. I hate games that make the environment too restricted.
If you are going to write a game then I would reccommend that you start with a clone of Cannon Fodder with Online/Network playability. I am sure it would be popular. ;-) :-D
