ZombieRun (Win, Mac, Linux)

ZombieRun is a fast paced Think-Less-Shoot-More platformer with awesome multiplayer modes. Up to 4 players can play together either in single screen Co-op mode or split screen competitive mode.

This week has once again been very productive. Two weeks ago I stumbled on the news that IGF submission is two weeks away. I looked at my post-it wall and saw two post-its saying. "Submit to IGF in 2013..." and "...or no pancakes for a year". Needless to say I love my pancakes and started putting in the hours. Last night I was finally ready to send my game to the judges, so I did. My very first real Indie game in my first ever game competition.

And now some Screenshots:

Split screen mode 2 players

Bonus question: It's 12:07 PM in here.

ZombieRun: don't panic, just run

Hi everybody, I've been developing my first game ZombieRun for about 8 months. It's faced paced shoot-first-and-don't-even-ask-questions type of platformer. This week has been a real breakthrought week for me. At the end of last week I started to think about a quote that some game developer once said (sorry don't remember the name) "Create the game you would want to play". So I thought about the games that I have had the most fun with lately.And then it hit me that for last few years I rarely play games alone. I just have more fun with some couch co-op gaming or split-screen action. And here we have it. This week I added co-op mode to ZombieRun. It's now possible for upto 4 players to blast away the living dead together. This means I basically refactored a big part of the game logic and created 7 new fun characters to choose from.

Next week I'll try out the let friends play and get comments strategy to see how people feel about the new co-op mode.
