-
Ok folks, here's our best foot forward. This is our super early, pre-alpha, prototype, proof of concept, animatic, work in progress, caveat, caveat, caveat game footage. =) Nothing in this footage represents the final game. All the textures, models, animations, and gameplay are place holders. I'll shut up now, time for the moment of truth... (/me crosses fingers). -
Oh come on, what a tease! xD
-
Just saw the video on youtube, want it so bad! Also *headbang*
-
Looks amazing. I worry that the animation, and especially the player's attacking animation, looks a little clunky. I feel that a little more fluidity, or a 2 or 3 stage attack (swing, backswing, swing) would be more appropriate here, or a way or chaining attack and dodge animations, but the proof will be in the playing, and I am totally looking forward to that. Nice work guys.

Looks great. I agree with everything aDFP said. Also I think you may need to adjust a bit more of the lighting effects. Try not to do too many strobe light effects, just in case you cause someone to have seizure attacks. Maybe too soon to ask about gameplay but I was wondering if there is any relativity to where your attacks connect. Example, the bat hits them in the leg and they go limping and move slower, hit them in the arm and they cannot punch or grab you and smash them in the head and it comes off. Also something that would be hilarious you can take the severed head and chuck it at enemies (similar to the game RUNE (2000))

No need to fret, since as I stated "This is our super early, pre-alpha, prototype, proof of concept, animatic, work in progress, caveat, caveat, caveat game footage." =)
It's really too early to show, but we feel that people need to at least see we are capable of making a game. -
SHUT THE **** UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!!!
-
I played the shit out of Rune (multiplayer add on too). I loved throwing my axe in a fleeing payers back.
-
What a lovely thing to come home to after a long day at work. This is some pretty good stuff for just a pre-alpha show reel. Can't wait to see what the final product looks like~
-
Looking awesome already! Sure it's still clearly an alpha, but the style you guys are going for is already visible and it's awesome!
Is there any chance kickstart backers will be able to try out some alpha/beta goodness in the (near) future?! -
Are those glow in the dark items the character is wearing?
I noticed green highlights on the backback I couldn't tell if that was lighting or not. -
@MintyBanana Backers that pledge up $200 or more will get access to the Alpha
-
oh...my...gog....I love you. So much..just..just come here and receive a hug.
I can NOT wait for this game. -
The gameplay footage got a post on kotaku! http://kotaku.com/5917043/batter-up-watch-this-kids+vs+zombies-game-in-action Lets hope that this helps with the kickstarter!
-
<33 OH my god YES > : D I hope it does.
-must wait for summer to start and go summer job searching-
If I have any money left from my Gamzee cosplay, I'm contributing. -
cant wait for the official beta! Also.....can you guys mabye put in our fan characters' clothes in the game? I'd love to get to play as Emily! Speaking of girls, were still waiting for the female pc and zombie animation? Can we expect that soon? <:3

@Saint
we're shooting for the closed Alpha to be in the December/January time frame. -
We'll give the closed alpha testers a boost when the game launches. We can't predict what items will need to be reworked so while we'd love to promise you can keep what you earn, some things might change for optimal gameplay purposes.
-
@Saint
omg /me pray! -
sigh, even after reddit still stalled out
-
it's not stalled, check again, it's still counting! gogogo!
-
Yeah well that movement isn't getting to 2 mil and right now dead state is rocking the zombie crowd they are already over 100k
-
from the comments i see about this being co-op play is it going to be similar to league of legends?
-
I wish I was rich T.T I would so just throw a large sum of money at this. x3
-
Why wont the screen take my money?!?
-
-
Acknowledging that it is a very early sample, I just want to note that I hope the set items are more than flavor. Climbing on things and being able to move stuff is part of an ideal zombie playground to me. Otherwise it's just dressing, gorgeous as it may be.
All in all, quite promising.
Here's to a stretch goal deus ex machina. -
@Trancebam
we hope it doesn't come to that, but in all honesty, it is a possibility. Let's make sure that's not an option! =D
@Aesop
we've got some surprises in store that are right up this alley of thinking. stay tuned! -
Wow for beign an PPAlpha it seems good. Hope see the entire game soon! And also, the alpha with 2 coop online will be open for all the players?
-
-
I was wondering how many people will be able to play at a time, are you going to have diferent servers or something? I was also kind of late finding this game and I really want to donate to this amazing idea. however I do realize that I am kind of late unless you guys plan to possibly extend the donation period? i would totaly be willing to sink $400+ into the creation of this game if you would.

@amneesiac
Most of the production will start after the kickstarter, it's goal as getting them funds to make the game I believe. =^.^=
