Twisted Metal: Double Trouble

"'Double the carnage.' - Release tagline" Twisted Metal: Double Trouble is a vehicular combat game concept by Red-Verse-Writer, a new instalment in the Twisted Metal franchise that revolves around the concept of each vehicle of having two pilots - a driver and a gunner. Returning to the series' central theme of a no-weapons-barred vehicle tournament in which the winner receive any wish they desire regardless of price, size or reality, the game features multiple game modes, including a tournament mode with in-depth storylines for each pair of pilots, a free-for-all combat mode, a multiplayer team deathmatch mode, and a capture the flag mode.

Gameplay
Like its predecessors, Twisted Metal: Double Trouble is a vehicular combat game in which the player takes on the role of either the driver or gunner of a two-man vehicle with another player in two-player co-op, or both characters at once in single-player. The game has multiple gameplay modes, most notably a Story Mode that follows each character's storyline across 16 matches, centring around the titular no-weapons-barred vehicle contest of which the two victors each receive a single wish regardless of price, size, rarity or even reality. The central Tournament mode revolves around each team's battles against one another

In addition to the main vehicular combat game modes, Double Trouble also features alternate modes that include on-foot gameplay. The first of these on-foot modes is Asylum, a hack-and-slash mode in which the player takes on the role of one of 30 playable characters as they fight their way out of Blackfield Asylum, fending off guards and released lunatics as they continue to advance through several stages, eventually facing off against a final boss that is a physical manifestation of their own mental issues.

Storyline
The Twisted Metal annual tournament has been taken over by a mysterious man simply known as the Guru, who has forced Calypso into hiding and become the showrunner of the tournament. Set around the city of Midtown and various other locations, this Twisted Metal has special requirements for competition - the vehicles require two pilots, a driver and a gunner, who must work together closely. The winning pair are each given a wish, with no restrictions on price, size, rarity, or even reality, with the sole rule being that they cannot wish to end the contest.

Driver Weapons

 * Fire Missiles: The most common Driver Weapon, simple missiles with average damage and some homing ability.
 * Power Missiles: The strongest of the missiles, but has no homing capabilities, instead travelling in a straight line and requiring precise aim to be used.
 * Homing Missiles: A weak missile with the best homing ability of the missiles, encouraged to be used in groups.
 * Freeze Missiles:
 * Stalker Missiles:
 * Swarmer Missiles:
 * Napalm Bombs: A bomb that is thrown to either cause a fire that does more damage if the weapon directly hits an enemy, or be forced to land immediately, causing an explosion.
 * Ricochet Bombs: A bomb attached to a self-propelled cart that bounces off the environment before exploding, and can be aimed.
 * Land Mines:
 * Remote Mines:

Gunner Weapons

 * Machine Guns: The default Gunner Weapon, a standard machine gun with no need to reload or recharge. While its rapid-fire shots are extremely weak, its sheer firing speed and lack of reloading makes it useful in almost all situations. It can be upgraded into a Heavy Machine Gun, which does more damage per shot.
 * Minigun: A much stronger version of the Machine Gun that consequently requires a reloading period and must spin-up for a brief moment before firing.
