JarHeads, the Story


It is the distant future, the year 201X.

Mad scientists across the world have united to create the maddest experiment yet. Collectively, they are known as the League of Earth's Worseningly Deranged Scientists. Their experiment: putting heads into jars.

After lengthy negotiations with the World's United Sanest Scientists, the key ingredient to the experiment was identified: heads in jars *without the body attached*.

Is is now the even more distant future, the year 201Y.

You, wearing a kind of a jar on your head, and a creature you can only refer to as *IT* are the last of your kind.

You are the JarHeads.

Also for some reason you have to avoid waves of bullets.
