At first i was slightly hesitant about getting this game from steam, It looked somewhat boring and dreary, but after sitting down and playing it for a couple of hours when i got home from work, i was completely addicted, the game features tonnes of weapons ranging from knives and brooms to pistols and flamethrowers. Basically your a truck driver who comes across a pack of zombies in the middle of the desert somewhere in America, you as the truck driver have to fight wave after wave of zombies, there are 18 main levels and several different modes such as survival and time attack to keep you interested, the zombies don't seem to spawn in the same places making it different each time you play through.
So has anyone else purchased this cool new game?
I played it. It's basically one of those flash games where you have a top-down view of a bunch of zombies swarming your guy and you shoot them. Just with pretty graphics.
I paid a dollar for I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES!!!1 because it had an awesome song, local 4-player co-op, and crazily hypnotic visuals.
$7.50 seems a little steep for the same thing, without the song, the co-op, the hypnotic visuals, and with bland (but still quite good, I admit) 3-D graphics.

[quote=dark_console2][b]dreary[/b][/quote]
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'
Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.
And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'
But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'
Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'
But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'
This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'
And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!

Saw it few hours ago, I was like yeah but then I saw few gameplay trailers, looked not great. I'll play the demo for now.
I purchased this last night and was amazed by it :D, it really is a nice challenge and some of the weapons and powerups are VERY satisfying! :D
I like ghost the best :D
If it's top down I dunno if I'd want it. Top down zombie shooters are usually just like flash games and get boring fast.

do you often randomly shut up?
saw it on steam, downloading demo now.
this is a perfect example of why steam is the shit. hopefully it's a good game, cause i'll fuckin buy it :D.
is light of altair any good? there doesn't seem to be a thread about it.
I tried the demo, this needs multiplayer, more objectives and bigger maps to be worth the money.
It has an entertaining core, but it needs more.

No its Horrible stay away from it.
It isn't horrible, but it is short. I completed the whole thing in a matter of hours.
Don't expect a whole lot. It is a simple shoot em up.
no it's pretty terrible i keep dying.
I bought this in the morning. I can't believe how many times I got raped on the Infection mission...For a challenge move the difficulty thing ( TAB in-game ) to the far right..How long do you last..I lasted 6 seconds on the infection level..

Recommend this to anyone who likes zombie shooters.
This also isn't Top-Down, it's somewhat...umm..not sure what to call it, orthographic?...Anyway, you can make it close to a top-down, or orthagraphical view.
Do you mean isometric?
This game crashes after 20 minutes of gameplay for me. It locks up and I get a run time error.
[QUOTE=_Mythic;17134943]Do you mean isometric?[/QUOTE]
Isometric is pixel art isn't it?
I'm pretty sure it takes on an orthographic view.
[QUOTE=Blynx6;17136652]Isometric is pixel art isn't it?

Isometric is not a pixel art style, it is a view, like first person, third person and so on
[QUOTE=edja007;17136707]Isometric is not a pixel art style, it is a view, like first person, third person and so on[/QUOTE]
Ahh I thought it only had to do with pixel art.
Othographic is 2D. I.E Top down
[QUOTE=_Mythic;17137178]Othographic is 2D. I.E Top down[/QUOTE]
Wait, 3d orthographic isn't possible? How is top down 3d called then
[QUOTE=edja007;17137250]Wait, 3d orthographic isn't possible? How is top down 3d called then[/QUOTE]
3D orthographic is possible. You can use it in decent modelling programs. (3DS max for example)
Tried the demo, it was alright at first, but got very old, very quickly. There really isn't much to it I'm afraid.
It is really boring.
it's a close birds eye view
