Credits
SCHMOOVE II (chopstickwater)
SCHMOOVE II is a Movement Shooter created by chopstickwater on the Sandbox Server legitimoose.com. Gibbing (or 'Death Animations') was an original feature introduced to the game by her, where players would explode into small colored blocks (or 'Gibs') when they died. These were physics-based, meaning the explosions were as authentic as they can be.
