  1. I'll work on the title later heh heh...

     

    Prelude to the description:

    Spoiler
    Alrighty!! First off, when I saw that game contest - (2014 Indie Game Maker Contest) - I got a tad excited (...well so excited my eyeballs almost fell out) and of course I had to enter.

    Not long afterwards, I got given some freelance work outside RPG maker which ends up taking up all my life ...for pretty much just this month :/

    Although I can't complain because it really is quite an awesome job haha.

    Sooo with me not being able to release it in time, I thought I would release the idea on here for your feedback and support whilst I develop it.  :)
     

    Concepts:

    The Idea:

    Spoiler
    If you had a look at the concepts ... and the title ... and maybe the tag prefix, you may get the idea that I might possibly be creating a zombie game.

    ...but actually I am creating a zombie game. (cough cough)

    Not just any zombie game though, YOU get to be the zombie!  :o

    ....that idea has already been done you say? Well actually, you're right!  :o

     

    Game Genre  - Puzzle, Action?, Stealth?

    Atmosphere   - A giant puzzle where each room is a part of it.

    Characters     - A zombie named Greg, (well whatever name you choose actually).

                              You can add others to your team and give them awesome names like Greg too.

     

    Alright, so you start off in a room as a human in amongst all these other humans. You soon realize that the character you play and all the people around you are delusional. Not only that, but this room is square with four exits. A cute rat appears (that's right I said cute, you can mock me if you want, I would too) and bites you. Suddenly everything changes, the rat is no longer cute, and you realize that it is actually very ugly and rabid looking. Your brain, among other things, disintegrates, leaving you as a zombie and the world around you becomes ... um clear ...now that your brain has gone XD.

     

    Every so often the map shakes. You hear large objects fall and move around outside the room. After a while, you will begin to realize that you are in a giant interchanging puzzle, where each room is a piece of it. Every room is different with puzzles in each one. Not only that but as mentioned before, there are humans. Delusional they may be, but even they will eventually notice your presence. With this is mind, (or not because you dont have a mind heh heh) you set out to recruit more zombies with unique abilities on your team. ...you do this by biting the humans, yum  :) . Sometimes that won't solve the issue and so somewhere along the game you will have to gain a legendary disguise of all disguises... the glasses!  :o  Now not even your rotting green skin or even your stench will matter!
     

    The Development:

    Spoiler
    Now why have I posted here? First off, if I can have your help and support, I'm sure the game could end up becoming awesome!

    As I develop the game, I will be keeping this updated, sharing the resources I create, sharing the game versions as I work on it and hopefully take in and implement your ideas into the game as well.  :)

     

    With that, I hope that you would take the time and share your thoughts/ideas/feedback/critique below.

    I would reeaaaaallly appreciate it!  :D

     

    Oh! and I really need a name for this too haha. Once some ideas come in, I will create a poll and hopefully get something good lol

     

    Name Ideas so far...

    - I can see clearly now my brain is gone

    - A day in the life of a zombie

    - Brainless World
