Inclusion – More Close-Range Weapons

Other weapons which I have thought to include are close range weapons which function much differently to others.

These weapons would be quite risky to use in the game but would work quite effectively. These weapons include the chainsaw, fire extinguisher and flame thrower. All these weapons require a range of 2 metres to work.

A chain saw will require a raise and drop gesture at a close, 2 metre range to slice an opponent. The bottom button on the iPhone needs to be pressed in order to start the chainsaw. This weapon, I feel will be tempting for user to try, just so they can hear the sound of the chainsaw at work.

The fire extinguisher works to paralyse an opponent, and so they will not be able to attack for others for a period of 15 seconds. The paralysed user’s playing will begin to flash, they will still be able to move , however weapons would not work when fired. The fire extinguisher may also be swung at opponents like a bat to damage them. A button does not need to be pressed to swing the fire extinguisher, but it does need to be pressed to paralyse opponents.  

The flame thrower is probably the most damaging of these weapons. Pressing a button and moving the iPhone from left to right (or vice-a-versa) allows you to spray opponents with a damaging flame. This has an initial damage of 25 on opponents and also continues to damage opponents by 5 each three seconds for a time period of 15 seconds. In order for users to avoid this they need to run away to avoid the further damage. Its like if you are on fire, you drop and roll, I figured that most people would not want to do this so, user will need to run in order to extinguish the flame.
