Thank you all so much for the warm welcome, okay down to my zombie game. Everyone knows the direction its going in becasue its a zombie, the guy is gonna go for human flesh and be a monster, but I thought what there was something more. Instead of being many zombies, I've chosen one and he must contiunally eat the flesh of anything he finds to stop from deteoriating. But there's a catch, in the manner of your killings there will be an insanity meter, once it maxes out you will activate a berserk mode taking out people left and right.

The setting is a cityscape, so there will be a lot of tight spaces for people to run around in. I'm not so hot with AI so that's why I want DarkAI to program the people to run away and try and attack the main character.

The story is pretty basic and cliche, a good employee gets suckered into a project to advance the work effiency of other employees and is injected with a substance that backfires. Over the week he gradually becomes a zombie. Once he has attained full fledged zombie, he then has two choices. A) He can hunt down the people who did this and try to reverse the effect. B)Go on a ramapage forever.

That's all I've got so far, I'd appreciate any opionions on it. I'm posting this because I'm not sure if my first one got put up.

I would definitely post some screens if I were you to not get flamed. Even throw up some concept art if you have to before someone goes crazy on you.

(not that crazy is a bad thing )

Here is a concept art of a dog going undead. The picture was done by my friend Ashley Fisher.

That dog creature looks seriously cool. Good luck with this, though I should probably tell you that at this stage this thread would be better off in the game design board, as it technically isn't a WIP as such.

Very very nice artwork, and at least you play as a zombie in this game rather than slaughter 1000's of them

Agreed. Zombie, you said your game is cliche but the fact that you play as the zombie is kind of original. I know there's games like stubbs the zombie and whatnot but there's considerably less in that category.

I had a question for the community, would there be a difference if i was using darkbasic classic over pro? Would I be hindered in anyway.
