GunGirl 2 is a fast paced Metroidvania action platformer with lots of weapons, upgrades, special abilities and hordes of zombies to fight. The player has to force his way through hordes of zombies, demons and other hellspawn to solve quests and hopefully save the earth from the apocalypse.
The gameplay is mainly inspired by games such as Metroid, Castlevania, Cave Story, Metal Slug, Mega Man, Contra and Silent Hill.
Main Features:
Put Some G-Power In Your Weapons
GG2 offers 6 main weapons, each has a unique feel, ammunition, an alternate fire mode, a variety of unique power-ups and you can even level them up. Every time you kill enemies, they will drop small G letters. Collect them to power up your weapons to make them more and more deadly over time. But be aware! Each time an enemy hits you, you will lose a certain amount of G-Power.
Explore New Worlds
The game starts off in a small building, from which you have to escape. The more you explore, the more will the world open up. Get more and more items and power-ups that will give you the necessary abilities to reach new places. Find abandoned subway-stations to travel to far-away new places or go through portals and travel across the hellish parallel-dimension!
Power-Up Your Character
Another feature is the Power-Up system. Whenever you obtain special Power-Orbs in the game, you can use them in your status screen to upgrade ascpects, weapons or items of your character. You decide if a weapon should have more power, bigger clip size, faster fire rate etc, or if you need more protection, or better health supplies. Spend your Power-Orbs wisely to become more versatile or focus them to become a specialized killing machine.
Advanced Blood & Gore FX
When I go see a zombie movie and there are no bucketloads of blood in it, I would say "Hey mister, cool flick, but where's the damn blood?". To avoid such emails from angry players, GunGirl 2 offers a whole ton of high-quality blood effects to please all zombie fans!
Lots of Quests
There are several main- and sub-quests in the game. You can get them from surviving npcs or even from unholy items and they have smaller or bigger impacts on the story. They are NOT grind-quests to cheat a longer playtime! That's a no-no
High Replayability Value
If the 4-8 hours of playtime (on easy mode) aren't enough for your zombiekilling-desire, the game offers a total of 3 difficulty settings (from Easy to Iron Maiden), several new unlockable playmodes and even a secret character!

This guy is pure gold. He made some of the most memorable soundtracks for indie-games such as Bonesaw or The Spirit Engine 2. If you haven't heard of him yet, definitely check out his website at http://www.jwmusic.org
Freeware!
Yeah, it's 100% free for download. Even the Original Soundtrack will be available for free.
The progress bar of GunGirl 2 has just reached 100%. This means, that the game is DONE. I will do a final playthrough tomorrow and after that I will upload the game and release it to the public.
There will be no use anymore for this project page, so these are (almost) my final words.
Just wanted to say that I really, really, really, really enjoyed being on this site for the last 2 years.
A big THANK YOU! to all of you who followed this project and cared about my game so much and kept giving me new motivation to finish this sucker
My apologies for that. But June 5th just became unreachable because of a tragic event that happened very recently. We will still do the best we can to get the game done as good and fast as possible!
I will use the overtime to improve the game further. And I'm not just talking about some lame balance adjustments! I'm currently adding complete new dialogue for all heroes throughout the game. This creates more depth and a different feel for the character you choose. Thanks to Fanotherpg for this suggestion
