Frontal Assault Shows Impressive Assets

Thanks to InsertCredit for pointing out the freely downloadable PC game, Frontal Assault, which has been entered in the same Finnish Assembly demo-scene party games competition as the recently-covered Truck Dismount. Frontal Assault is a puzzle-action game where "The idea is to perform various moves on breasts. The move icons float [on] to the screen and you must make the move before the icon disappears." Moves you must replicate by on-screen bosom twirling, using the PC's mouse, include the 'bounce' and the 'helicopter' in this decidedly bizarre title, which has also been tested by the authors to work under Wine for Linux users.

      Quite possibly the saddest game I've ever seen.

      I imagine certain geeks will takes this as sex advice. I can only imagine how horrified any woman they ever managed to get naked will be when said geek starts smacking their breasts going "helicopter!"

    Remove the file "NO-XRATED" in the Data folder. then when you run the game, right-click instead of left-clicking. (If you're, uh, over 18.)

    I think it's great that Slashdot can keep abrest of these things. I mean, these guys deserve a trophy, or at least a cup.

    The way they manage to implant a story like this amongst the other titillating headlines... One wouldn't think they had the rackspace to allow for little stories like this.

    I probably look like I'm sucking up, and I do feel a bit of a boob. But I really have to say, things have really perked up around here.

  10. /. needs a pr0n section? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0

    Yeah...an AC post, but I'm not willing to take yet-another karma hit for a post that espouses some basic morality.

    Was it really *that* slow of a news day/night (depending on our geography) to warrant this post?

    As someone else said, "stuff that *matters*"?

    The only thing that could have made this interesting is if /. took part in the the google adwods site adverts. I wonder what types of adwords would have been displayed next to this "article".

    With all of the absolutely terrible FPS, RPG and RTS games that have been coming out lately (a small minority have been good), it would have been cooler to see the developers spend time applying their ... ah ... creatitivity? ... no ... how'bout "imagination" ... to those genres in an attempt to make some innovative games with wide appeal and decent re-play value?

    Time to take the "games.slashdot.org" off of my personal front page listing...

    Maybe call the new section "/. After Hours"?

      Spoken like someone who has never actually touched a real, live breast, let alone kissed one.

      Accidentally formatting your hard drive is more fun than this game.

      The sad thing is, this will probably win the competition, purely because it's got breasts in it, and most demo coders (at least that I've known) have little to no exposure to women, so playing with virtual breasts is probably the high point of their sex lives.

      Not AC, but quite happily married here too:)

      You see developers putting stuff like this out, and then you'll see articles saying "why aren't more women gamers?" Well could it be because most of you fucktards only portray women as objects in games? And if they're not just eye candy, they're ridiculously proportioned. (Christ, Lara Croft wouldn't be able to get out of bed!)

      Note to developers: Instead of beings sexist jerks, try actually designing believable, realistic female characters that are neither sex objects, or ridiculously misproportioned.
