Ok. The game was good. But I was really getting annoyed by the following. I target people and they don't get shot. You should add a SetGameSpeed slider and make this game open source. Or post your code. That's all. Good game overall.
They don't get shot because the pistol is a not-so-good weapon, it's in the readme.
I know Rui. Instead of getting random misses I'd rather have a hovering mouse. You know some people can real own with pistols in real life. They're called Cops.

They must have better pistols then :)
But seriously, when i did the game, i knew that some people will find that random accuracy annoying, but i couldnt find out any better way to do it. Hovering mouse could be better solution, its quite difficult to script tho. I'll think about it.

Slider would be easy to do, so I could put it in the next version. Making game open source is more difficult thing. Code is guite messy because i made it only to my own use so i should rewrite almost everything to make it clearer. I should also add comments to it. But maybe i could do it some rainy day.
Your game was good. Doesn't mean that because I found something annoying that it's that way. Don't let it bring you down. I remember when I made my first game scripting things was a very big problem and I scripted an adventure game. I could have a look at your code and set things up and comment it if you like though.
I quite liked this game... granted, it pretty much handed me my ass after Wave 3, but until that "invulnerable sniper" (10 bullets and still not dead? Damn!) showed up, it was fun. Let's hope the Random Number Generator is a little more friendly to me next time ;)

Sure if you want, i can give you the code when I release the next version. But like i said, it's quite messy, so you might have difficulties getting into it.

One hit should be enought. :o
Did you use sniperrifle against the sniper guy, because any other weapon's shooting range isnt good enought.
Shooting range might be guite confusing tho, so ill try to improve it to the next version.
No, I was just jabbing bullets at him from my pistol... didn't have a sniper rifle at that point. Still, I could normally kill soldiers at that range with an average of 1-3 shots, so I guess it was just a stroke of TERRIBLE luck. :P

Must have been frustrating :)
Anyway, shooting system will be much different to the next version to avoid this kind of situations.
