The image of the game is looking fabulous, but we can't judge a book by its cover.

So you can play it! I am sure if you like shooter games you will enjoy my game.

Thanks my friend, yeah, I love my game because this is a passion project, however, I have some sad news, due to real life circunstamces, I think I will need to do a break on this project.

And you can not see my game on Steam, it is because Fursan al-Aqsa was banned from germany.

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Devlog: Combat Overview and Artificial Intelligence

Check out this new trailer for Fursan al-Aqsa Remake, showcasing the updated enemies AI and the first combat overview.

Now my friends, I need to be sincere with you. Please, buy my game on Steam to support me, otherwise I will need to give a break on this project, because, unfortunately, bills don't stop to come all months.



If the sales remain low, I will have to give priority to my job. I would love to dedicate more time to this project, to be able to finish as fast as it is possible, however, in reality it is not that easy. I tried to make a living from game development, but it is VERY hard. Fursan al-Aqsa has 7250 wishlists on Steam, and, if only the half of these whishlists converted to sales, I would be able to dedicate my full time on Fursan al-Aqsa Remake. Anyway, I will try my best to finish Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Demo.



The biggest problem with my game is indeed the political message, which makes many, too many gaming websites simply refuse to cover my game. I sent thousands of messages and emails for sites like IGN, Gamespot, Kotaku, Game Informer, PC Gamer and many others, but they never answered me or talked about my game. For an indie game, it is extremely hard to get noticed without media coverage. And many of these websites fear displeasing Israel and Zionist Groups, like IGN:

https://kotaku.com/ign-takes-down-ar...-ai-1846905689

So, without proper media coverage, any game will stay on the limbo, getting known by only some few people. Even then, I am happy that the purpose of Fursan al-Aqsa was achieved, praise be to Allah, that this game went against the stream, this game exposed the hypocrisy withing media, the double standards for the so called "freedom of speech", which exists on both movies and games (and in general media work). I know Fursan al-Aqsa already entered on the video games history, even though it did not receive the deserved recognition.



May Allah bless you!

Sincerely,
Nidal Nijm.

And you can not see my game on Steam, it is because Fursan al-Aqsa was banned from germany.

Do you have any idea why it was banned in Germany?

[[MPGH]Cursed]

Do you have any idea why it was banned in Germany?

Germany has a long and strong relationship with Israel. I believe they see this as "Volksverhetzung".

[udkultimate]

Do you have any idea why it was banned in Germany?

No no, it was banned merely because the extreme graphical violence, at least was the complaint steam received from the USK and forwarded to me.

[[MPGH]Cursed]

No no, it was banned merely because the extreme graphical violence, at least was the complaint steam received from the USK and forwarded to me.

There are plenty of games that go further than yours in violence & are not ban in Germany. It's most certainly due to the rhetoric displayed in game.

Maybe. I could pay like 2K euros for getting my game reviewed by USK, but I don't think it is worth, because, in the end, until now, almost 70% of the sales are from within USA. So USA gamers are those who most bought my game.

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake: Brutal Combat Gameplay

Take a deep dive into the frenetic, gory and bloody Combat Mechanics of Fursan al-Aqsa Remake, the most BASED and REDPILLED game of ALL times, created by Nidal Nijm, the most BASED game developer on Steam:

Mobile Version Combat Gameplay:


INSANE Explosions Gameplay:
https://www.indiedb.com/games/fursan...ake-explosions



This trailer shows the core gameplay of Fursan al-Aqsa Remake, the updated combat mechanics and also the updated enemies AI and the updated Zionist Soldier Model (the 1st variation).

You can notice a HUGE difference and improvement on the enemies behaviour, thanks to this AMAZING kit I am using for Unreal Engine 4:

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketp...havior-toolkit

This is one of the most advanced Artificial Intelligence Frameworks for Unreal Engine, as it is based on behaviours. So you setup different behaviours and reactions for the enemies, alongside situations to trigger these behaviours, like what the enemy should do if he sees you, if he hears the bullets, or if he hears other enemy dying close to him, what to do if the players gets out of his sight, patrol, investigate, and many other cool things. But as always, I changed a lot this AI Framework, added many new functions and extra features (I improved the AI hearing and peripheral vision), and I also integrated with this another Locomotion System:

https://www.unrealengine.com/marketp...tion-system-v1

I used from this system mainly the Ragdoll Physics and some of the movements (since I added some new animations) to make the enemies animation a bit different from the player's animations (just like in Fursan al-Aqsa Classic). This way makes the game's animations more appealing and varied.



Other new feature I implemented is the new Super Headshot, which blows up the enemies' heads with a Cinematic Camera. To perform the Super Headshot you simply need to perform a headshot while in bullet time. Super Headshots now give player 30HP of health, while Normal Headshots give player 15HP of health. However, for keeping the gameplay balanced, there is a cool down time on both the Bullet Time and the Super Headshot.

I already remade the Knife Kills (Stealth Kills) in Unreal Engine 4, and now it works perfectly, it is easier to perform, and it is not buggy as on the classic version. You just approach the enemy from behind and press V. But you need to approach him without too much delay, because if you stay too much behind him, he will feel your presence, turn around and shoot at you! I will add the front kill animation as well. The knife kills give player 50HP of health!



Added the Wall Running, which makes the player invincible for some seconds, and also the automatic health regeneration (1HP by second), there is no need for health packs anymore. So removing the healthpack means the best way to gain health is killing the enemies, so this will turn the player in a killer machine haha!!! So you must kill to survive!!!

The next step now will be finish the demo mission, since now the basic game framework is done. I hope now in the end of December to release Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Demo on Steam and Fursan al-Aqsa Mobile Demo on Playstore, to allow you have a taste of what awaits on the full game.



Last but not least, the Indie of the Year 2022 competition has just began on IndieDB:

https://www.indiedb.com/games/fursan...-mosque/images

And since Fursan al-Aqsa Classic Definitive Edition (the last update) fixed the biggest problems of my game (security cameras logic, mission objective indicators, mini map, checkpoints and so on), I think now Fursan al-Aqsa is very enjoyable on its actual shape, so you can enjoy it while waiting for Fursan al-Aqsa Remake, and I kindly ask you, PLEASE VOTE ON FURSAN AL AQSA MAYBE IT CAN BECOME AMONG THE BEST INDIE GAMES OF 2022, which in turn will give the visibility Fursan al-Aqsa needs to be a trully successful indie game.

Thanks and until next time!

Fursan al-Aqsa Game made in the list of Top 100 Indie Games of 2022 at IndieDB. So vote for making it among the Top 10 Indie Games of 2022!

Steam Winter Sales and Top 10 Indie Games of 2022

Hello dear friends!



Fursan al-Aqsa Game made in the list of Top 100 Indie Games of 2022 at IndieDB:
https://indiedb.com/groups/2022-indi...-awards/top100

Now it is competing on the top 10 of 2022!

Just scroll down to Third Person Shooter Category and click on the red button to vote!!!



Maybe if my game makes among the top 10 of 2022, this can help it to get some visibility to increase the sales, in sha Allah. As a muslim I do believe that the ultimate success and blessings is in the hands of Allah (God), but sometimes, specially now in our era of social media, we all know that just one post about a game may get viral and may make that game become a hit and success, like this game here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1...rombone_Champ/

After this tweet post here, a gameplay video uploaded by a Netflix employee, which reached almost 6 millions of views:
https://twitter.com/JacobDeRose/stat...49169666703360

The game got coverage from almost all gaming websites and many youtubers and streamers on twitch, and I am sure this helped the game to sell a lot. So maybe something like this can happen to my game, only God knows... While this does not happen, I will keep trying, in sha Allah (God's willing).

And on next tuesday begins Steam Winter Sales and I will give a HUGE discount for Fursan al-Aqsa:



https://store.steampowered.com/app/1...AlAqsa_Mosque/

As you already know, buy Fursan al-Aqsa Classic now on Steam and receive the Remake as a FREE Update over the base game. I kindly ask for those 7.367 users who have my game on their wishlist to please, buy my game to support me! Every copy sold trully helps me!

Also, as I commented before, I applied for getting a remote job of character animator in the games industry because my game's sales on Steam are going slow and they are not enough for me making my living. I have great hopes that the Remake will be more successful, in sha Allah (God's willing), but I need a fixed salary, incoming until I finish the Remake, which I think I need from 8 to 10 months. So with a remote job I will be able to work on my game in my spare time, but I will work with peace of mind and be more productive. Working distressed fearing for the future of your family is very bad, indeed...

Even though I understand about all areas of game development, but I think that characters animation is my strength, and as so I built a portfolio and would like to showcase here some work of mine which many of you have never seen.

In example, this is a very old cutscene animation (the first cutscene) I made for my game, Fursan al-Aqsa, but in the end I decided to don't add on the game now, maybe in a future DLC or even another game. To be honest, I made this animation more as a study for myself, and I think this animation looks cool, and it serves to showcase my skills with character animations:



Also here is the compilation of ALL cutscenes I made for my game, the actual version on Steam (almost 11 minutes of cutscenes):



And here is something I made just for fun (and I think it looks hilarious), on the time I was porting UDK Engine (the engine I used to develop my game) to PS3 and Xbox360. You can see this has the same game menu and interface logic of Fursan al-Aqsa, because I used this build of the engine (my custom build) to develop Fursan al-Aqsa:



And for those who have never seen my game running on PS3, here is, the first 5 missions running on my PS3 with HEN (Homebrew Enabler) installed:



So that's all for now my friends.

May Allah bless you!

Cheers,
Nidal Nijm.

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Demo Release Trailer





This is the official release trailer for Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Demo, the most BASED and REDPILLED game of all times developed by the most BASED game developer on Steam, me, Nidal Nijm.

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake is a brand new version of the iconic game Fursan al-Aqsa: The Knights of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the game which made Zionists cry out for mommy!

This demo can be downloaded from Steam, IndieDB and Itch.io:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1...AlAqsa_Mosque/

https://www.indiedb.com/games/fursan...sa-remake-demo

https://nidal-nijm-games.itch.io/fur...al-aqsa-mosque

As for those who own Fursan al-Aqsa on Steam, I updated the game launcher with a new button to launch Fursan al-Aqsa Remake Demo.



If you do not own my game yet, do not miss the last days of Steam Winter Sale to buy Fursan al-Aqsa by 50% OFF and get this Remake for FREE, once it is finished!

Some observations about this Demo:

1- I forgot to add the command to return to main menu whenever the player does not get any rank on this mission.

2- I forgot to teach players how to do knife kills (I assumed you know because of Fursan al-Aqsa classic), just get on the enemy's back and press V once you see the icon "Finish Him". For the full game I will add more executions, not only with knife, but also with pistols and rifles, in the best John Wick style!

3- I made Fursan al-Aqsa Remake a bit easier than the Classic version because many people did not enjoy the overly hard challenge of Fursan al-Aqsa Classic. Think on this demo map as something like a Tournament Map, E-Sports (hunting zionist) to train your skills and train how to perfect the new gameplay features like Wall Running, Headshots, Super Headshots, the updated Bullet Time, Knife Kills and also exploding Grenades on Air!

So I kindly ask you to play this Demo and give me a sincere feedback.

Until next time!

Fursan al-Aqsa Mobile Release Trailer

This is the release trailer for Fursan al-Aqsa Mobile, the most BASED game on Playstore!





The most BASED game of all times now comes to Android to piss off Zionists and let them Seethe and Cry! Get ready to smash Zionist Thugs on the Go! Fursan al-Aqsa Mobile is a world-class Free to Play MOBILE-first experience, down to its core and it comes with full Google Play Integration (Player Stats, Achievements and so on):







Get it now for FREE on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...rsanAqsaMobile

Please, download, play and leave a sincere user review and rating on Playstore!

PS: For the best experience and to increase the BASED factor it is recommended to play this game inside Buses and Airplanes.

I know no one likes Ads in games, but be sure that whenever you watch or click on the Ads I integrated inside Fursan al-Aqsa Mobile, you will be helping me TOO MUCH, in sha Allah!

I plan to release new missions periodically, and for each mission I will add some achievements, to make the game more enjoyable while players wait for the next mission. I am also thinking on doing the same for Fursan al-Aqsa Remake on Steam, release new missions one by one instead of waiting 10 months to release all missions together.

This is a similar approach to Early Access, but for new players who buy the game, they will have access to the full campaign of the Classic Version, and they will be able to play the Remake, periodically, mission by mission, and this Remake will be a free update.

A nice addition is that finally I was able to integrate Steam Online Subsystem with UE4. Now Fursan al-Aqsa Remake is fully integrated with Steam and I also added some cool achievements on the Remake Demo (only for those who own the game on Steam), so now you will have a lot of fun unlocking them.





Added to this, I made some small changes (listening to your feedback) which improved a lot the gameplay experience:

* Return to main screen if no rank earned;
* Increased bullets speed to 27000 (it was 9.000 unreal units);
* Increased the time for reset Super Headshots to 20s;
* Reduced the Super Headshots Cutscenes duration;
* Increased the health regeneration to 5HP by second (instead of 1 HP) because with faster the bullets the game became a bit harder;

If you have my game on your Steam Account, you just need to update the game for being able to unlock these achievements. If not, so please, buy my game to support me.

Cheers and until next time!

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake: The Road to Jenin

Welcome to Jenin, the Symbol of the Palestinian Resistance. The Jenin refugee camp, also known as the Jenin camp, is a Palestinian refugee camp located in the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank. It was established in 1953 to house Palestinians who were displaced from their homes during the Nakba – the destruction of Palestinian society and homeland, and the exodus of Palestinians from their homes. Jenin refugee camp became a symbol of Palestinian resistance after a deadly large-scale raid conducted by the Israeli Occupation Army in 2002, during the Second Intifada.

This mission is also a tribute to the classic game Jenin Road of Heroes, the first 3D Game about the Palestinian Resistance made by Arab Game Developers, using a custom Game Engine written in Delphi Language. On this video you can have a sneak peek of the map, the upgraded visuals, lighting, ambience and more.

Buy Fursan al-Aqsa now on Steam and get Early Access to Fursan al-Aqsa Remake.

OBS: Steam Spring Sale began and Fursan al-Aqsa is discounted!

Enjoy!

Fursan al-Aqsa Remake - Jenin Road of Heroes Update



This is the biggest update for Fursan al-Aqsa Remake until now!!!



I added a brand new Mission, Jenin Road of Heroes. This map is HUGE, bigger than the previous map. Also this mission allows for vertical gameplay and use of the wall running technique. The combat here takes a urban warfare style, on which both the player and the enemies can hide and seek through the map (there are many buildings with interiors).



This update introduces a new weapon, the dual UZI SMG, also an update on all guns animations (both for 1st person and 3rd person mode). Alongside now there are grenade pickups on both missions (Camp Ariel Sharon and Jenin).



I added many new achievements for both Jenin Mission and Camp Ariel Sharon, so you will have a great time revisiting the previous mission because I created a unlockable skins system for Fursan al-Aqsa (earning Rank A on each missions unlocks a skin), and for each skin there is an achievement associated.



I also created a Mission Selection Screen, so now all of you can have a sneak peek of the new missions which will be coming in the next updates.



Apart from this there are other small technical updates, like custom footstep physical materials sounds for the player, an upgrade on the characters shaders and other details.

So I hope you all have a great time trucidating Zionist Soldiers!

Damn it is nice seeing the game progress so much. Kudos

Fursan al-Aqsa is 50% OFF on Steam Summer Sales 2023

See what people are saying about the most controversial game on Steam



Steam Summer Sales has began! Do not miss this opportunity!!!



By just 7 bucks you can get the 2 most freaking based indie games on Steam which are not available on Xbox Game Pass neither on Playstation Plus, but are coming soon to Epic Games Store.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1...AlAqsa_Mosque/

Fursan al-Aqsa is an Action Game which addresses the Israel x Palestine conflict from a Palestinian perspective, breaking the cliché of portraying Arabs as Terrorists. You will play in missions across Palestine with many objectives to accomplish, epic battles, powerful guns, vehicles to drive and more.



This game has 2 versions, Classic and Remake. The Classic is a full game, with 9 Campaign Missions, up to 8 hours of gameplay, but it is a game which follows a retro old school hardcore style, and may not appeal for younger generations, but this game is iconic and full of memes and non sense bonkers action moments.





And Fursan al-Aqsa Remake is the natural evolution of this game, it is a brand new game which I am giving for FREE for those who buy Fursan al-Aqsa on Steam. The Remake version is indeed the "Palestinian Max Payne on Steroids". It has better graphics, better physics, improved enemies AI, new gameplay mechanics, and many other cool improvements. It has only 2 missions so far, but they will give you many hours of fun, because the Ranking System, Unlockable Skins and the Steam Achievements. Fursan al-Aqsa Remake is an Early Access game, on which I plan to release more content constantly.





So that's all for now folks.

All the best,

Nidal Nijm, a.k.a "The most BASED game developer on Steam".
