03 May 2015 » Deathmatch

The 0.5.8 release includes deathmatch mode. Before this, C-Dogs had “dogfight” where you fight your friends in a first-to-5, multiple round game. With deathmatch, the action is non-stop! Keep your finger on the trigger; the action doesn’t end until only one is left standing - or none at all!

The heads below the health bar are lives

Also included are a few maps specially designed for deathmatch, with weapon and ammo spawners spread around the map. These levels may seem familiar…

Each level also comes with devastating custom weapons!

11 Nov 2014 » Custom Weapons Guide

C-Dogs SDL 0.5.6 introduced custom weapons, but apart from a sample campaign, the function was quite opaque.

Now there’s a walkthrough guide on the wiki, as well as comprehensive reference! Every weapon in C-Dogs SDL is made using the same way, so you can make fancy weapons like this booby trap:
