Flash games were the precursors to many parts of the gaming industry today. The creativity and willingness to experiment has translated over to the indie games industry, many design elements that are used in AAA games today were first observed in flash games, and the casual nature of many flash games has translated over to the mobile game industry. One formula, top down shooters, really started in flash games. One of them was Decision 2: New City.

To install Decision 2: New City, just run it with whatever SWF player you have.

Unfortunately, the decision was made to remove the surprisingly intuitive mouse follow control scheme. You now only play with the typical WASD and mouse aim controls all other top-down shooters have.

This game takes place after the last one, where you've pretty much single-handedly saved the city. So of course, you have to go save another city in this one. Other than that, however, this game is pretty much the same as the last one, but in this case, it's a case of "why fix what isn't broken". The series strength has always been fusing the overhead shooter gameplay with upgrades and mission elements to keep things from feeling completely mindless, and this is a great example.

All in all, Decision 2: New City is more of the same, but the same was so fun that it's hardly a con.
