I don't tend to think about all the back-end work required to bring a game like this together... however putting these videos out has really shown me how much of the work that I do is strictly in behind the scenes lol. I try to show something new off each week but it should be very interesting when I get the back-end work wrapped up. Content should be added very quickly at that point Anyway, enjoy my meager offerings while you can :

Tower Defense #1 is in! Protect the meteor to get the opportunity to mine the resources from it. Only a little bit of work left to do on this and the event system in general then on to a character / skill system.

This game reminds me of Seven days to day video game. Are you inspired by that game?

Yes I've taken some inspiration from 7 Days among others . There are quite a few in the genre to draw inspiration from. I'm finding difficult to distance myself from every aspect of each but I feel I have managed to find enough unique ideas to set Grave Complex apart .

Busy week this week. Added in the skill system (actually skills yet to come), added in armor based skill buffs (shoes make you run faster). Fixed zombie pathing near barricades and through angled barricades. My TODO list is shrinking. The launch of Grave Complex Alpha is fast approaching. Be sure to send me your emails if you want to test the game out! First test will be for android devices.

Mostly UI work this week (I'm not fast at making UI... ), also added chickens, fixed a number of bugs (no more infinite zombie spawns). Larger tasks left: Still need to add the 'quest giver' Skills / leveling need to be hooked up and tuned The rest of the tasks on my list should be quick, bug fixes, small additions or tasks left for another version.

A lot on the go. Several bugs fixed, several bugs introduced :S. Most of those introduced are because of the new skills system which is coming along very nicely as this video suggests.

Lots on the go. All of the major systems are in place. Basically just bug fixes and adding content before the Android alpha test. If you want to be an alpha tester (On Android) PM me, I'll make sure to add you to the list.

Added a number of new features this week. Still self-testing the game at this point, the game needs some more 'towers' to make it a tower defense game but it's progressing well.

Alpha soooon! Seriously though, It's pretty much ready to go. I'm going to wait to release until after Christmas in the hopes that it will get me more feedback :D. If you would like to be part of the private alpha (and you haven't already) let me know. I'll add you to the list!

Implemented a better camera rotation scheme, and an easier to read interface.

Average draw calls down 52%, overfill 2-3 times lower. It was a good week. What does this mean? Better performance on all around but it will be most noticeable on lower end devices.

Added armor to the character system which required some mucking about with blender and the mesh swapping code I'm using. I've also created the first version of a key element in the game the crystals. More to come on those later.

New this week: - Created the primary NPC's vehicle. - Improved Zombie Pathing (Especially the large zombies) - Added directional lighting during the night I guess I should call the charging zombies something other than "Large Zombies"... Any suggestions?
