King Zombie Updated!

Ok, I know it’s been months, but I am hoping to get back into the swing of posting regularly. The changes or too numerous to list here, but suffices to say I feel I am now in the home stretch to a solid beta and a run at Steam green light. Below is a list of a few of the big changes I can think of right now… as always you are welcome to play the updated web version at King Zombie: Escape.

Enjoy…

- Now has 34+ weapons

- All weapons have new models and animations

- Now has 47 different monsters

- 3 unique bosses on lvl 50 that appear nowhere else in the game

- 5 different level templet types with 30+ sub types

- More bug fixes and general enhancements than I can list here

King Zombie: Escape *Updated*

Try it free online:

Online Demo - latest version OpenGL - latest version

Update 6/25/15

About to go out of town for a week so I wanted to get this out first. Lots of new content here, still 4 weapons short but everything else seems to be working fairly well. Please let me know what you think ;)

- New sword now in game

- New decapitation animations for the monsters that can be decapitated

- New weapon sentry mine

- New monster Undead Ninja

- UI now shows damage done by default

- LOTS of fixes and reworked zombie AI for melee combat. Doing so had the side effect of making them much more deadly, so I have increased the amount of skill points per level for 3 to 5

Have fun!

King Zombie: Leveling System

Leveling will be handled through a four panel tech tree style system. The player’s level and upgrades persist through death (they drag your body back and reanimate it). All of the below is just a rough outline of my current thinking. If anyone has other ideas, if I can implement them I will try them out. The four panels will coincide with the four weapons blocks on the user interface (italics not yet implemented). 1. Firearms: a. Pistol b. Shotgun c. Machine Gun d. Rocket Launcher 2. Traps: a. Land Mine b. Spike Trap Idea is to have a trap that does damage and takes time to reset then does more damage. c. Electrical Trap Stun trap that will stun multiple enemies based on lightning jumps upgrade. d. Auto Cannon Actually an auto-firing gun that the player places and shoots zombies in the direction it is pointing until it runs out of ammo. 3. Electrical Weapons: a. Laser b. Lightning Gun Limited range lighting arc that stuns and damages, then jumps to zombies near the target to stun and damage them also. c. Lightning Claws melee version of the lighting gun. d. Singularity Device makes a moving ball of mass that sucks nearby zombies in and crushes them. 4. Martial: a. Bow b. Sword silent damage in the direction the player is shoot/facing. Has a chance per swing to auto-kill target resulting in decapitation. c. Axe silent damage sweeps in an arc in front of player damages and knocks back enemies d. Mr. Hyde basically Hulk smash mode. Each weapon category has its own upgrade tree panel. Firearms: Each point spent in firearms increases player’s max health by 10 1. pistol shot speed 2. pistol damage 3. pistol kick back 4. shotgun mag-capacity 5. shotgun Damage 6. shotgun shot speed 7. Machinegun mag-capacity 8. Machinegun damage 9. Machinegun Crit-Chance 10. Rocket Launcher mag-capacity 11. Rocket Launcher Damage 12. Rocket Launcher Safety: Rockets wont detonate in range to kill player 13. Rage: consecutive shots build combo power and increase damage Traps: Each point spent in traps increases the players chance to dodge. 1. Mine Carry Capacity 2. Mine explosive radius 3. Mine Damage 4. Spike Trap Carry Capacity 5. Spike Trap damage 6. Spike Trap speed 7. Light Trap Carry Capacity 8. effect radius: distance from trap that lightning can jump 9. Damage: starts with very little or no damage 10. Auto Cannon Ammo 11. Auto Cannon Damage 12. Auto Cannon Knock Back 13. Reclaim Traps: allows player to reclaim a trap by walking over it. Electrical Weapons: Each point spent in electrical weapons increases player move speed. 1. Laser efficiency 2. Laser Power 3. Laser chance to penetrate 4. Lighting Gun Efficiency 5. Lighting Jump range: applies to traps claws and gun 6. Number of Lighting Jumps: applies to traps, claws and gun 7. Lighting Claw Efficiency 8. Lighting Damage: applies to claws and gun (not trap) 9. Lighting stun: applies to claws, traps and gun 10. Singularity size: effect range of singularity Martial: Points spent in martial increase player’s stealth (how loud player’s foot steps and opening doors is) 1. Sword damage 2. Sword swing speed 3. Decapitation chance 4. Axe Damage 5. Axe Swing Speed 6. Axe Knockback 7. Bow mag size 8. Bow shot speed 9. Bow Damage 10. Bow Head Shot Chance 11. Speed while Hyde 12. Hyde Fist Damage 13. Hyde Radiation Damage 11. Time that Hyde upgrade lasts

New Version King Zombie - Free

New version of King Zombie: escape .

Mostly quality of life improvements, setting up for the leveling and upgrade system.

New:

Separate lighting for different elements so that it is easier to distinguish between enemies and background. Since my main target platform is mobile it is I am trying to add as much clarity as possible without adding too much dynamic lighting that can slow the game.

Also, for now, I have set the max active enemy count at 25. Again this is primarily for mobile and I may eventually set the limit to scale up for other versions. At least so far 25 enemies is plenty to overwhelm the player.

Added muzzle flash to the firearms. WIth no sound effects other than place holders it makes it much easier to tell when the guns are firing.

Changed non-explosive projectiles to only hit one enemy. Before this enemies with overlapping colliders could both be hit by the same projectile, allowing multiple bow kills with one arrow for instance. This change does make life much more difficult for the player, but it also makes the more destructive weapons more desireable, again setting up for the leveling system.
