Carmageddon II

Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now is the sequel to the computer game Carmageddon, released on November 30, 1998. The game was developed by Stainless Games and published by Sales Curve Interactive. It has been released for both PC and Macintosh. Like its predecessor, Carmageddon II was subject to criticism for the level of violence portrayed in the game. It is rated 15+ by ELSPA. In some countries, the pedestrians (and animals) are zombies, and blood is turned to green slime: In Germany, aliens replaced the pedestrians. Internet released 'blood patches' would restore the original human pedestrians. The blood pack was later released in the United Kingdom in 1999, earning the game an 18 certificate. It features a heavy metal soundtrack with songs from Iron Maiden and instrumental tracks from Sentience. Carmageddon II was one of the few racing games to feature deformable models on its cars, making for more realistic dents and crashes. In fact, the player's car can even be bent in half, leaving the player to drive with only the front wheels on the ground. The car could also be sheared in half, causing retirement from the race if the damage was not repaired before the vehicle touched the ground. As with Carmageddon I, there are 3 ways to finish most levels: Complete the race, passing every checkpoint before the time runs out Destroy all the opponents Kill every zombie/pedestrian in the level As the player progressed through the game, they would unlock 'sets' of levels (10 in total), consisting of 3 standard "Race, Wreck, or Wreak havoc among the zombie/pedestrian hordes" levels, followed by a mission. Each mission has specific tasks that must be completed before unlocking the next set. The time limit in this game is generous, and the player can kill pedestrians, crash into opponents, or do tricks to gain time as well.
