Shell Out Showdown is part of what has retroactively been termed the "molasses jam" run by the Bay Area Dev Collective. The theme of the jam was to make a violent genre non-violent. I picked the last-person-standing battle-royale genre, as it tends to be dominated by violent games, and Shell Out Showdown eventually came to life!
