[Diseased Corpse DEMO]

A Great Start

I really enjoyed the demo. The use of 3D environments and screen panning is a great idea, it really fits this puzzle style game. I look forward to the completion of it.

I think it would benefit from more challanging puzzles (perhaps you were planning this the further you went in the game?). Also, the zombie sequences need vast improvment, its almost less than a point and click since its only limited to the X-axis, you can't move the cursor up and down, making it really, really easy to take out the zombies. If the zombie attack had more urgency, perhaps a better aiming system (both X axis and Y axis) it would be more enjoyable.

Overall great job so far. Good luck with the continuing development of the game.

Getting there!

Keep up the work buddy. I see major problems already (as you probably already know). Of course the ridiculous amount of money you start with makes things kind of lame, since the game is ridiculously easy to start with. The game is very slow paced over all. Not enough zombies appear on the screen at once, even on the hard difficulty, even at the later levels. Work on getting the difficulty and intensity level up and it will be much nicer. Also, certain weapons should have different effects. For instance, the shotgun should have a spread, so if you don't hit exactly in the head, but around the head, it still counts as a head shot. Another one: if the game gets much harder, perhaps make the mp5 full auto? Finally, a colt .45 should do considerably more damage than a .9mm beretta.

Seawana responds:

The money thing is fixed. The game is slow paced for various reasons, mostly because the enemies are mostly classical zombies. On the final levels of the hard setting, you may have a new enemy appearing nearly every other frame. If that's not enough, you're out of luck. I wanted to, but didn't have time to implement a shotgun spread. And finally, regarding the colt .45 and .9mm beretta ... oh well. It's just a game after all.

Thanks for the review and ideas. I hope you play again.
