Bullet. Where the real assassins are separated from the amateurs through nerve-wracking missions.

The goal of Bullet is to complete all the contracts and rise to the highest rank of assassin. Before each contract you are given the profile of your target in the form of a description.

Memorise it well.

In the mission you have a scope, which is quite simply point and click. Shoot the right person and you'll progress. Shoot the wrong person and your career ends. The catch?

You have 1 bullet per contract. Make it count!

Notes:

-This game does have a situation where there is (very badly drawn) blood and gore, so please be aware of this if you have kids or sensitive folk watching.

-This is untested on Linux and Mac but as long as you have a flavour of Java 7 hanging around, it should work just fine. If you would like a distribution please just ask and I'll see what I can sort!

Interesting kind of the game for this theme. Really like the aiming effect ;)

This reminds me a lot of the picture game in Game and Wario for the Wii U. Very awesome stuff.

My targets seem to like hats a lot. Maybe there's a connection... <:[

I apologise for the excessive hat slaughter X-Or. :)

I found the zoom on the scope made it really hard to get a better look at specific people. But a good execution on a good application of the theme overall.

Really fun game for such a simple idea. My main gripe with it is the graphics which is specifically a poor limitation due to the games necessity for visual cues. Still, I enjoyed it and would love to see it developed further.

Neat idea! I know it's definitely too much to ask for, but I think this type of game would be really cool as a multiplayer game of sorts, kinda like a version of "I Spy", but with shooting people in the head.

Awesome game. Good graphics, nice sounds. Would have liked a bigger scope / less magnification on the scope. Keep up the good work!

This is a fun game. I like that memorization is being used as a mechanic. really well polished game for the time given. Good luck!

I find it a bit difficult, but fun to play.

Cool game. =)
A little succinct in the appearance of NPC but right in the theme and well animated.

Is there something I'm missing to the clues? I keep shooting the wrong people despite them meeting all the requirements.

Hitting the correct target was... disturbingly satisfying....

Uh, good job?! lol ;-)

I really liked the screens in between the levels. The text was really smooth.
GingerMessauthor20 Dec 2013, 21:37
Thanks for the comments everyone.

doitle: the target generation is 100% random and I select a target at random, so there are times when it's literally a gamble as to the right target. If I had more time I would've ensured the target is unique. Ta for the feedback though, I was anticipating this being mentioned.

They told me that my colour blindness would be an obstacle to my career as a hitman, and they were right. I am a menace! Great idea, loved the scope zoom, very innovative.

It's fairly difficult to get the correct guy but it was fun, good work.
