Fan/Hate mail for XEvil!



Satan receives quite a bit of mail from his adoring public. Some of it positive, some of it, well, ... not so positive.

This includes the infamous "Josh the 10-year old" message.

Subject: Xevil... will it ever end?!
To: satan@hardt.cc

I've been playing Xevil for about a year now, and it
still sits upon my desktop!! When other games have
come and gone, that one still stares at me, begging me
to play each day... and I do!
What evil curses did you include in its source code,
what ancient rites did you perform while coding, that
causes it to STILL be sooo much fun?!
No, they are your secrets, fair enough.

Is there a last level? An ending reached? Does there
exist the highest possible Satan profession in this
game?  I must know!  (Though this game drives my
roomate crazy, and that I DO enjoy. :)  )
Great game... I envy your coding and design skills.

j0!

i recently d\led Xevil and its awesome! its addictive as hell, funny and 
cool! you rule! also, it has to be the least buggy beta version of any game
ive ever seen. i wrote a small asteroids style game using direct X and i 
would get an overflow error if i ran it twice in a row...

the only bug ive actually seen is some teleporting through walls when on 
caffine or being pushed. 

...

i am eternally grateful to you already for the endles hours of entertainment that 
xevil has provided. if you tell me what the hell a sophmore is, i will sell you my
soul, half price!

keep on truckin'.....

I went to your site yesterday after my friend raved at me for two weeks about 
how Goddamn cool XEvil is, and I was TOTALLY blown away by what I saw! Crack 
pipes, flamethrowers, transmogrifiers, and Satan! In the words of my buddy 
Shoulders, excerpted from a telephone conversation: "Jesus Christ! It's like 
WE made this game!"

will XEvil ever come out as a Win3.1 or Mac version?

Umm your game X-Evil is very disturbing and umm should be ended
immedeatley!  It causes a disturbance among.....

Okay now that my colleauges are gone, X-Evil kicks anusmonkey!  When I
played it the first time i felt like masturbating!  So i did!  Till i
was pink all over!  Seriously though i think this game is one of a
kind- in the fact that every time you start its random,
demon-summoning, alien crap, and all that cream-filled goodness!  Its
one of the only games i could play over and over with out taking
wack-off brakes (joke- maybe) And i know your tired as nuts of hearing
them- but here's some suggestions

- Voodoo Magic
- Able to name your own character
- Addition of weed as a drug
- Deformed redneck babies
- some type of shotgun

Thanks for filling my life with cream!

Just when I thought I had beaten my StarCraft habit, I find out that the
cheesy little game 'xevil' that came with my version of RedHat, which was
vaguely fun to play occassionally when I was really bored, had a 2.0
version which is way the hell more addictive.

Ohwell. If my grades are going down, I'm taking the grades of the rest of

First off, This game is fucking great! Second, I read some of the hate

violence, FUCK OFF! GOD IS FUCKING DEAD PEOPLE, I KILLED HIM!
I'm sick of hipocritical religious people attacking kick ass games like 
Xevil. All of my friends are as addicted to it as I am, and I will be 
sending the fee for it as soon as I get paid.
TO THOSE IDIOTIC RELIGIOUS BASTARDS, I say you should put a priest in 
the next version of Xevil! GOD HIMSELF, I believe said thou shall not 
judge, yet all those fucking people do is whine. To you Satan, I give a 
huge Hell yeah, for having the guts to make a game thats not afraid to 
be bloody, sinful, and fun.

To: satan@xevil.com

First, I've got to say that this game is absolutely incredible.  It's invaded
our school - our AP Computer Science class spends more time playing XEvil than
we do learning C++.  I can't think of ANY suggestions for this game.

I can, however, think of a few little things for your website, specifically
the character listings.  Where are the red/green huggers, the frog, and the
baby seal?  The game is a lot less without these, and I believe they deserve
mention.

Just some thoughts.  Great game!

i must say, in this day of shitty, overly complicated games that do
nothing but confuse my little burnt out mind, your's was a ray of
relief.  A port of Xevil came with my copy of redhat linux and as soon
as i got X working i gave it a shot.  I dont think my grades suffered as
much since i started smoking dope!  you guys are sick, i love the pcp
and the crack pipe.  I think the game really deservers the title of
"evil carpel tunnle syndrom game" cause i think i may have permently
damaged some of my very favorite carpel tunnels.  I really think the
modem idea would be great since i have this shitty dialup connection.
And add more charactors.  And send me some money, im broke.  I need some
papers. Dammit where did i put my sack?

Hey guys, I'd like to let you know how much I think your game rocks. 
The recent trend in everything being 1st person 3d lately has been
pissing me off because it's hard to find a good side scroller anymore. 
Well, yours is great, and it's nice to know there are other people with
good taste in games.  The networking is just a stroke of genius... I
can't wait to try playing it over a network.  So far, I've just tried 2
player games from 1 computer.  I don't remember what version I have, but
it came on a Linux cd I got, and it works great.  Keep up the amazing

	You guys have come up with the PERFECT game!!
I've spent more time playing XEVIL on my NT 4.0 workstation than I have
doing
anything PRODUCTIVE!  THANKS!!

	I'm currently working with a bunch of guys over the 'net creating a Quake
Cyberpunk TC (Total Conversion), mostly doing 2-D artwork for the matrix
levels. (textures and skins)  The idea behind a TC (in case you didn't
know...) is to take the Quake engine and change the game, using QuakeC,
level editors, and graphics editors.
You can *basically* change the entire look/feel/gameplay of the game,
though our attempts are going mighty SLOW. *G*

	I think *XEvil* would make a KILLER TC!  Using the Quake engine I could
image cool-ass high-jumping platform carnage! (Deathmatching would be a
*BLAST*!)
I'm *attempting* to also work on a TC of my own (in my spare time) called
Killing Spree TC.  I'm attatching a .doc file of the concept I drew up...I
figured you guys would have the right appreciation of the subject
matter...MINDLESS KILLING! ;)

	Again, it's an EXCELLENT game!  Thanks for taking the time to code!!!

Subject: Suck me into your mailing list

Just Like to say it's a fuckin' rippin' game. Some ideas that may help
distort some reality:

 1) make a ipx or modem play option so we can all get fucked in a nice
neighborly networked fashion for those of us stuck at piece of shit
organizations that don't do unix *sigH*
 2) make drug dealers if ya'll make drugs. They should just be
characters with more than 5 units of whatever drugs. Have the lil
buggers marked off by LaRgE shades. They can run around n' jump on
players, randomly trading drugz for weapons (who can resist the craving
any-fuckin'-way)
 3) Add a glue gun, stick the little fuckers where they stand!
 4) Create gigantic bottles of Jolt that run around with Axes (yep,
another boss creature). I mean what programmer hasn't had nightmares
about that. . . (don't say a word)
 6) add some more blood curdling screams bud!
 7) make the altar of sin such that it will buy the souls of people you
will kill. ie: Altar of Sin offers you 1 extra life for the next 3 souls
you harvest with this weapon (give'em a gun that shoots little
pitchforks or someshit)
 8) write somewhere that this is a game approved by the Satan
Worshippers of America. Brand name recognition of a sort heh
 9) more death! more death! (make death a boss)
 10) SHIT I LOVE BEING THE FIREDEMON! w00w00! maybe allow him access to
more items.

well laters. fuckin' awesome job on the game

Hi

 My name is Josh.I am 10 yrs.old.I think you should watch your
profanity on-line a little bit.(Remember,anyone can access your
program)And I think you shouldn't bring up drugs in a game anyone can
play(especially young children) I don't mean that in a mean way.I feel
that you are saying that it is "ok" to take drugs when you are tired
or behind in your work so that it will help speed things up a
little.It is also a VERY bad influence on young children my age.

XEvil rules so much
Theres lots of death
it rules alot
death rules alot
death rules
xevil rules
sorry
lost my train of thought for a sec
well anyway..
XEvil would be much cooler if there was a mode where you can put as many
machines as you want (which is cool in any mode) and you can be in
either god mode or have infinite lives.
You should also have the option to choose your character type OR have it
randomly chosen.
You should be able to start as a lemming, fire demon, enforcer, red
hugger, etc..
Can someone please give me a COMPLETE list of all the characters
(including the rare ones)
Has anyone else ever been a lemming? it's so cool. So is being a fire
demon. I don't like the enforcer though

Hi! I am Japanese student of Kansai university, faculity of informatics.
This is my first sending.
I am one of the xevil-lovers. I will introduce my strategics,using bomb on human
vs human .(I am bomb lover).

1. Put bomb and stay away.

2. When enemy(or other player) approach to bomb to get, shot pistol or lancer.

3. Bomb explodes and enemy will be killed.

(Cheap?? dirty??)

1. When I am chopper-boy, lift up other player who is climbing the
 ladder.

2. And drop the player after carries him.

3. Shot weapon to him that can not move.

Certainly this is very dirty ,but difficult.

By the way, what strategics do you have? I am still begginer, and if you
have better (or dirty)strategics on duel-mode, let me know please.

p.s I love bomb and stars. But other players of my friends(xevil lover)
loves launcher or lancer. I think launcher is dirty weapon. What weapons
do you like?

So my coworker downloaded this game called XEvil and drags me over to his consol

So then we started playing it, and the minutes roll into hours. This game is gr
eat! Mindless violence, fast action, and fun network play... love it.

On question though -- are there any cheats? I've been playing him for a while,
but all of a sudden he seems incredibly strong. For example I saw 3 missiles hi
t him as chopper boy and he still didn't die but when I get hit just once from m
issiles I love 50 health. These seems fucked up. Is he using any cheats, or is
he just becoming a great player?
