 8) Nice. I'll wait for sprites before I try it out.

I wonder if its even possible to win this, zombie infection is to fast, so they probably spread out and keep infecting everyone way faster then you can heal them. All videos that I have seen so far, look like an unfair/impossible game.

Then ADD a scoring system to avoid that issue. Etc how much score can you get to you self Got infected? If you managed to shoot Them all, then a bonus score and then restant with more zombies.

Hi Kanonet

I am still tweaking and adding gameplay items - I will be adding more powerful weapons to even up the gameplay and make it possible to win.

:)

I have won on occasion and have made it so that newly cured zombies are very weak and easy to cure again.

I was temped to use Ian's graphics - may still do as if I do if these dont work out.

I went for top down images (like Eagles Nest etc) mostly my buildings need work but I am just doing to the chars for moment and fixing the hit detection etc.

Those are much better than the first ones :)
I came. I saw. I played.

Cheers Ian!

They play better as well - and tie in with the extra game features...

I will post up a demo once I have a few bugs removed

hello mr.plow,

how are you drawing your map? Is it an array? Which size?
Let me try to guess its core:
-you pick a random point on map
-you draw a filled random rectangle

Is it anything like that?

I ask because I have been occasionally working on that tatic/rogue sematary game I posted somewhere else.
While I haven´t actually gotten to the real game...yah, choosing between rogue/tatic/realtime...I did some experiments with map generation.

If you want, I could bend the code to generate your maps. I have some pictures to show but I don´t want to hijack you thread to showcase it.
Let me know if you are interested.

MrPlow

Cool - maybe post in bonus section or pm me...?

I am doing a simple clustering - similar to what you said.
