Shotgun Farmers

Shotgun Farmers builds its arsenal out of agriculture. Every bullet that misses an enemy plants itself in the ground, sprouts into a vegetable version of the weapon it came from, and grows over time into a harvestable ammo cache. Snipers leave Sniperagus stalks. Rocket launchers leave Carrockets. The longer a plant grows, the bigger the magazine you get when you pull it.

The consequence is that reloading isn't really a verb here — the verb is gardening. Maps fill up over the course of a match with the visible history of every fight that happened on them, and players who pay attention to what's growing where pick up advantages the spray-and-pray crowd never notices.

Mega Bog's lineup includes capture-the-pig, chicken chase, and a king-of-the-scarecrow mode, plus a co-op horde mode against waves of infected farmers and animals. Match sizes scale up to 12 players, and matchmaking is built around the kind of short rounds that read closer to TF2 than to a tactical shooter.
