Vertical Aiming

In original retro FPS games, having vertical aiming as a feature was rare. With Only Lead Can Stop Them inspired from classic 90s shooter games it did not have vertical aiming in earlier builds. Throughout the playtests players who engaged with modern first-person-shooters struggled to get into the controls of our game which in the end motivated the team at Warcry Interactive to add vertical aiming as a setting that can be toggled on or off.
