A game by Social Loner Studios for PC and Xbox 360, originally released in 2012.
SEAL Team 12 is a top-down shooter that harkens back to the glory days of arcade titles like
Ikari Warriors and
Commando where players fought their way through enemy territory, vastly outnumbered, but fortunately not outgunned. As is standard in the overhead shooter genre, players take control of a one man army (or a two man army in local co-op) and fight waves upon waves of enemies as they march through various jungles, fortresses, and enemy encampments. Along the way, players can grab more powerful weapons – and even enemy tanks – to unleash greater firepower upon their foes.
The game starts off with a bang, introducing players to the world of over-the-top action and humor that awaits them. In the opening cutscene, a lone silhouetted soldier stands surrounded by innumerable foes, and what does he do? He puts on his best rage face and spins around blasting each of the baddies to bits. Soon, the player is introduced to an enemy force known as the Guardians of Devastation, a.k.a. GOD. Who is GOD? What are GOD’s plans? Where is GOD getting the stockpile of free socks that it hands out to new recruits? These are the answers put forth to SEAL Team 12 at the start of the game. To find the answer, you’ll need to shoot every damn thing you see across 13 levels until you face off against GOD’s war machine.
