Does the game get any harder? I've played the first few stages and I couldn't help but yawn. My character barely if ever gets hit and everything dies in one or two hits from the sword...
The original game is very thin -- great to look at, but it lacked even the level depth of something like Zombieville (which isn't much). For me it was one of the most disappointing games released in 2009. Hopefully the update will bring the gameplay to a new level -- from the video it seems that there's a good chance for that.
Well, we've added a 'hard' mode specifically for those like you who have found the game too easy. So far none of us has managed to beat the story mode in 'hard' difficulty without dieing at least once. The bosses especially require some serious skill even when you (think you) know their behavior. In fact we found it so hard we've even put an achievement for that, beat it and you'll be superior to the whole press start studio team!
Looks pretty awesome. Already love the graphics, but the new environments and combos will put some fun back in the game.
Any closer to release on this? I can't wait! This is probably my most anticipated thing this month after the SFIV release.... ^_^ Want now!
The update looks great, and it's something the game would have hugely benefit from at launch instead of being a rather simple but pretty looking zombie survival clone.
We are getting closer to release every day Mandi Should be available in a couple of weeks now, only a few bugs to fix here and there.
I'm really glad that you guys are not only updating the game but updating both versions at the same time. And what was in the video looks great. Though, I've grown up playing Marvel Vs. Capcom and Strider and Devil May Cry so I'm used to launching and juggling people in the air. If you can sneak that in to the next update some how. :-D But yeah I'll be redownloading this as well. I have one lingering doubt however. While it's great to have these bosses, did you guys make any new normal enemies for us to fight? Zombie animals are a great start (dogs, birds, penguins, cheetahs, bears, velociraptors, skunks) or 'uncommon commons' like in L4D (knight zombies, werewolf zombies, skeletons, pirate and ninja zombies too). If the main bad guys are enough fun to slaughter, then bosses sometimes aren't even necessary (PvZ only has ONE boss in the entire game for example).
Wow video looks awesome! I'll may pick this game up now! Cuz I heard some negative things about earlier versions..
This. Honestly, there aren't enough games with zombie dinos! Seriously though, thanks for the update Phil! But weeks? WEEKS? Gah, I can't wait!
Ah well, I can't give a definitive date because of the twilight zone, but the update will definitely be out before the end of the month.
Nope, we'll be submitting monday so then we'll still have a couple days to wait. Meanwhile I've posted a few artworks on our devblog Trailer link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ9pYB8J9Nc
