And from the creator of Subvein:
Basically, Subvein is a top-down multiplayer shooter. It was heavily inspired by games like GTA, Counter Strike and Diablo. It has guns and vehicles, all the standard game modes like CTF and deathmatch, and a rather sexy skills system. There are 33 skills to choose from including stuff like Regeneration, Invisibility, Bullet Time and Force Fields. Basically you run around completing objectives and shooting eachother, and as you kill enemies you’ll level up. This gives you a skill point that you can invest into a skill and so on.

On Reddit, the developer discusses a bit about how he made and why (inspired by GTA2).
When I get home I’m definitely playing this.
