I thought I’d take a moment to share our prototype thus far. We’re putting some final polish on the prototype itself, but it is just that - a prototype!

We’re entering the game in the Indiepub contest after the contest is finished, we’ll actually begin full development on the game.

We thought it’d be cool to get a little feedback prior to finalizing the prototype. If you have time to play and post some Feedback that’d be great! Hope someone enjoys playing it! :slight_smile:

Wow pretty cool! I played it…I am not very good… :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

It is pretty rocking.

I saved 3 pesky humans.

Very nice work! …is funny :slight_smile:

Feedback: ALT Key for “rotating knocks” is not good a good idea at least in IE8.

awesome style ;D love it

camera could rotate with player’s rotation so one doesnt have to adjust the cam all the time.

Thank you!

I agree with the camera rotation, there is a couple other facets that I wish I had time to fix as well.

All of which will actually be changed in the real game; along with all kinds of stuff really.

The general hope we where hoping to get from the prototype is that it was silly enough to be fun and that people enjoyed the style.

Which seems to be the case - lots of room for improvement in the real game and you can expect to see a lot of it! Feed back will always be welcome :slight_smile:

I really like this game. I haven’t seen artwork like this in any game.

And as a note;

The I know there is some issues with the web build for sure. We actually had no intentions of releasing a web build, but after some serious optimization in the last week, we realized it actually ran perfectly well in the web. The controls however, pretty much sucked for it… haha.

I might attempt a little revamping of some HUD and Controls in a couple weeks, to make a web friendly version!

Your newest game you’re building kicked my ass; I can’t get past the first part yet! haha.

Just uploaded our final build for the prototype.

Thanks for anyone that has checked it out and left us feedback! It’s much appreciated! Hope you enjoy the game, we can’t wait to get to work on the real game starting in about a month!

–Fixed the link – Thanks for the heads up :slight_smile:

I don’t like games with zombies so much, but this one is very sweet.
Player control was a little awkward, don’t know whether it is improved in the newer version.
And honestly I had trouble reading the font in the menu’s/instruction’s.
For the rest super-cool…AND LOVE the music!

Regards, Robert

Fantastic work. So many titles tend towards the tried and true hackneyed regurgitated splooge it’s very refreshing to see something fresh and “outside the box”.

If you fellas haven’t quit your day jobs yet, I’d go ahead and hand 'em your notices - I expect big things to come.

We’re already working on the actual demo and preparing for the IGF; but a little support on this indiepub contest would go a long way!

Thanks folks!
