Since Caribbean Pirate Quest is finished I have started a new project, I have always wanted to make a turnbased game similar to the XCOM series. Today I am proud to announce the first release of my turn based zombie game. The goal of this first release is to show how the game is controled. A demo level has been created where the goal is to kill all zombies before they kill you. No graphics has been made for the game yet, and all textures and models (except for the weird player model) belongs to third parties. StoryThe city of Darkwater has been overun by zombies, as the only surviving police officer you struggle to save the remaining shreads of sane people from the zombies. Fight through the city block by block. DownloadWe still have some server problems with the hUb so here is a zipped archive with the release: feedbackYou are welcome to provide any feedback in this thread! It would be great to get some feedback on camera and character control! |

First impressions
Nice! I'm looking forward to see the development of this game. I really like turnbased games such as the XCOM and Fallout series.
One thing that I noticed while playing through the demo level was that I first only moved the camera by mistake and thought it was a bug. I guess I'm used to the old games where you couldn't rotate the camera with mouse look
Yes I agree, the camera and
Yes I agree, the camera and turn character both uses the right mouse button, I think we might need some other key involved, maybe CTRL + LMB to turn the character and let right mouse button be camera control only...
Or maybe let the camera speinn around the character when it reaches the end of screen?
Great game idea!
I loved the X-Com series and would love a Zombie game of that nature. Even the little demo was fun! I agree that camera movement to view what is around you should not be linked to character rotation. Also, movement shouldn't halted/be interrupted whenever you encounter a "dead" zombie that's already been dealt with. They are no longer a threat.
