Here are a couple of teaser images from this week's upcoming progress report, where I'll introduce some new craftable weapons.

Is that a fiery crossbow and a flaming flyswatter? :D

This week's Zombox update:

- more craftable items! Pipe bombs, molotovs, crossbows with explosive and flammable projectiles, and more!

Here's a .gif showing the molotov in action.

- now you can barricade doorways! Barricading a door gives it some extra HP, which makes it harder for zombies to knock it down. Here's a .gif showing the player barricading some doors.

- a new food system requires the player to eat at regular intervals, to prevent starvation. Here's what the food notification icon looks like (top right corner):

This is incredible. Truly turning out to be one of the best games on the forum. I love the ease of crafting and the variety of weapons you've put in.

Agree with this. Definitely one of the games I'm looking most forward to on these forums

New updates to Zombox this week!

The world now features an elaborate, underground sewer system that you can explore by entering/exiting various manholes throughout the city. The sewer system features shops, medic stations, etc, and will eventually be filled with NPCs -- the remaining survivors of the apocalypse -- who you'll be able to interact with.

Here's the overall layout of the 3 main sewers (the largest one is still a work-in-progress):



Here's a .gif showing the player entering a sewer, looking around a bit, and then exiting:

This week's addition to Zombox: NPCs!



NPCs can work with you, or attack you, depending on how you treat them.

Here's a more in-depth description of all the new NPC features.
