We just started up on our next project. It’s still a bit early but here it is

We are using a few Unity store assets:
Ultimate FPS
Cartoon FX
that’s pretty cool!! = ) and new unique way to make a zombie FPS Shooter alittle different than most…
are you going to include some kind of funny gameplay stuff? just curious because the first thing i thought was…
“how cute!” toon Zombies LOL! i think if there was someway to include some funny elements into the gameplay this would
be a unique Zombie Shooter!
I’m actually working on a Zombie FPS myself, I won’t post a link to it here since this is your thread, but i to have the challenge of trying to make
the game a little different then most… and there are lots of Zombie Shooters out so we have out work cut out for us lol!
just played the demo at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16491721/zFPS.html
very cool! if you are going for iOS and mobile device then I think the current camera might work, cuz i think it’s such a pain to aim on Mobile Devices… controls are better if you don’t have to aim (just my thought playing FPS on my iPhone)
but if it’s for PC / MAC / Browser, then I would say enable the full XYZ Axis Camera Aim and Shoot.
Yea I didn’t post the gameplay link cause I wanted people to see the steam greenlight concept page :).
We do plan to launch it on as many platforms as possible so that would include iOS, android, PC, Mac…etc
We didn’t do actual look aim to keep the game more accessible and arcade feel like old school doom (especially for mobile devices). The game is a mix of doom, smash tv and a bit of rogue like features.
Rooms are pre-made but the game will randomly grab the next room. Pickup weapons, light rpg elements…etc
Yea I think more humor would be great. We will try to get a voice actor for the main boss. Some of the props in the levels will be interactive so there’s definitely opportunity to do something funny.
Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Goodluck with your own project too.
haha thats awesome! Love the Borderlands outlines aswell, and the zombies are hilarious! this works just as good as any “serious” zombie fps man, might even be tons more fun. Had my fair share of serious looking shooters so this is a nice addition!
We did a small update

Not sure if we will be doing weekly builds since there’s not much added yet :). But you can preview the arms dealer, some random weapon spawning.
This week you get to look at some zombie dogs, a giant zombie, and our regular zombie fodder. There are some additional functionality to the arms dealer, and Casey added a front end! Woot. Cya

Looks like a smash tv type thing, are you going to have an announcer who taunts mocks you?
One thing you could add is when the zombie dies for them to play a death animation of them falling to the ground then that particle plays and then have their body disappear. Will give it a more polished look even though I know its in early stages. You could also do a couple of different death animations and then play a random death animation each time a zombie dies. This will make the deaths seem more natural.
Just a quick update to my post here. We made a new build last month. We are now working on adding crafting. Looking to start a kickstarter next month, so stay tuned.
You can check out the build here:

@Aiursrage2k Originally we were thinking of it being more of a smash TV type game, but either way some type of taunting is always fun.
@ DexRobinson Yea, we added more polish in our latest build. We use ragdoll and also have the zombies break apart.
you should change your title
Looks great, it would be awesome if you made it online
Yea I’ll make a new post when our next build is out. I can’t seem to change it.
@killerbat - I wish it would be that easy to do at this point, but our focus is still just making a good single player experience. If there’s enough interest then we will definitely look into it.
@kelde - thanks for the comment! Hopefully we can put all the content in to make it really good.
