Holy crap. That's... Whoa. Looks kinda unbalanced, though.

It's obviously not practical, but it still looks awsome

I agree with Usagi what it is but it will seroisly bust any wolves butt, that is for sure... Unless it's armed with one of these to.

I'm not saying that at all. I was just noting that it looked unbalanced.

And we should stop coming up with mod ideas even before the
original game is out

I would like to point out I got the demo of Lugaru rougly ten days ago. The next day, I forced my mother to sign me up for the full game. The game has taken my life by storm, and it's the only game I've been playing. I know I'm not a long-time hardcore Lugaru fan like some who have been here for a year or more, but I love it just as much. It's breaking my heart not to be having Lugaru 2 right now.
On another note, great work David. Those weapons look fantastic. I didn't think a shareware game could be so complex.
I'm not a religious man, but David, you're a god.

If your mother bought it I guess that makes you a religious boy? JK

I think we should start putting some of these quotes on the main page

I'm from Ireland, and we usually use "man" for males, instead of "boy". For example, "Good man." is quite a common phrase.
Besides, if I said "I'm not a religious boy," that would make it sound quite stupid. Don't make fun of me, please.

I'm aware of that, but males who are of the age to live with their mothers are "boys" and not "men". Was only a jest

I am aware I am a boy. I didn't say I wasn't. I said I can use "man" instead of "boy".
