Mostly comprised of bug fixes is Scorpus’ Thing-Thing v0.9.2. There’s still no playable campaign; however, hop into Arena mode, stay alive throughout each wave, keep a full clip by collecting the newly added power-ups, and rat-a-tat-tat… It ain’t nuthin’ but a thing-thing…

Thing Thing v0.9.2 changes:

• Added blood effects. Not great, but it’s there
• Added pickups (health and ammo), which are spawned at random
• Added death animation (fall through the ground)
• Fixed a small bug related to the Arena menu system
• Fixed some very minor graphical hitches
• Fixed a bug that caused enemies to fall through the floor while attacking
• Fixed a bug that spawned two exact duplicate enemies
• Fixed a bug that caused you to be able to kill enemies while jumping above them
• Some code optimization

Setting a spot in the homebrew scene is Scorpus with his rendition of Thing-Thing for the PlayStation Portable. Never heard of it? Here’s the 411: Thing-Thing is an extraordinarily violent flash game, or series of games, created by Weasel of Diseased Productions. It’s very popular amongst citizens of the Internet world allowing character customization, a vast selection of weaponry, and of course plenty of bloodshed — just enough to make Jack “crybaby” Thompson cringe.

Keep in mind: Thing-Thing is currently beta. Scorpus plans a full (version 1.0) release in the New Year around February. Campaign mode isn’t available quite yet; but while in Arena mode, kill to your heart’s content. Please report any bugs via the release / discussion thread.

For those who’ve been playing previous versions of Thing Thing;
the 0.9.1 changes:

• Fixed the bug where if you were jumping over an enemy you could get attacked
• Fixed some minor graphics errors
• Fixed some very minor AI quirks I found
• Added a cheat. Not telling you what it is though
