Hey Everyone! For the past year or so I have been working on my own on a mobile Tower defense game. Because Zombies is a game about a dad trying to make it through the a zombie infested city to rescue his daughter. The gameplay has been inspired by Orcs Must Die! and Plants vs. Zombies. A lot of the theme and mood is inspired by Walking Dead and Halflife 2.

I also did a few demos of some of the barriers you can collect throughout the game, (there are 25+)




Demo of the spike trap




Demo of the Time Bomb




Demo of the Prop Barrier




Demo of the ole' Machine gun




Anyway, please let me know what you think! I am always interested in others opinions on my work:)


Thanks,

Ben

I think you've done a good job and liked the game. I found it slightly annoying not being able to skip the animated sequences, so i could get back to killing quicker. I did get the impression I had figured out the game by just building turrets and a few brains, but i assume in later levels you will be limiting the supply of some resources.

also noticed some bugs: the grid sometimes does not appear for placement. you have to switch weapons to get it back. also once the scrollbar in the "shop" was missing, so i could only select top two items. i "fixed" this by restarting the level.

harold is not a she, as stated in the text to keep him back to protect. the game seems to get easier the more people join. you really need a limit on the items.

[marcgfx]

was expecting to be able to move people later on, only possible at the beginning. winning rounds with very high score, just using turrets, brain bait and allies.

Awesome Feedback MarcGFX! much appreciated.

The old man's sound is currently getting done, so he just uses the girls sounds now so there is something. that will change soon

I'll have another pass over difficulty, see what can be done

the skip for cutscenes is also easily done:

thanks a LOT, very helpful!

When the zombie apocalypse kicks off, make sure you bring a lot of pressurized barrels of poison gas!
