Update: ALPHA v1.07

New Level

We were long overdue for a proper level, one that would be in the game for release. I took a lot of lessons learned with my old prototype level and came up with something well suited for this game. It's a sewer level, complete with all the grunge you could ask for.
There is now a properly designed area to barricade, it has 2 rooms, players can build a main and backup barricade. The main door has windows that allow you to shoot zombies as they pass by, or get those annoying Horkers that hide behind the wall and shoot your barricade from safety.

Graphics... Finally!

I promised I would show off how much the game has changed since the store page was made. I'm quite happy with the look. I think it hit the 90's aesthetic I was going for.

If you want to see more of the game as I work on it, I invite you to watch me work on it live on Twitch everyday at 6AM EST.

Balancing for a Demo

That's right, I'm gearing up to launch a demo soon, that meant actually adjusting lots of values to be balanced for proper game play and not development testing. I will keep you all posted on the demos release. Here's a gif of me defending my barricade!
