    Thanks for the feedback everyone!

    I'll most more as soon as I can. Need to take a break now because I almost had a panic attack when I realized how much work we have left to do on this game! :eek:

    What about giving the floor a more grey color ?
    While the background itself loooks much much better now with the distinct rock and sky differences. Now the brown kinda interlocks with the color of the mighty pizza crust :D

    But I guess this is just stupid nitpicking. I'd take the new revised version over any of the older versions, immediately !
    Great work and you're also listenting to crits. Very admirable :)

    Actually that's exactly what I ended up doing with the final version of that background. I usually don't obsess so much over a single BG, but it's always good to get the first one *right* before extrapolating the style to other parts of the game. Sigh... only 15-20 more backgrounds to go!

    20 backgrounds O_O
    You seriously are out of your mind.
    I so so so so so hope, this project doesn't end up being to ambitious with all these takeovertheworldofgaming plans :D
    I support you in every possible way that doesn't involve money - except for the actual game purchase, of course !

    Hi everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates. For the record: The game is proceeding on schedule, and I'm very, very, pleased with the direction it's headed in!

    Lately we've been adding content, content, and more content. Yes, it really will have 100 levels. And not those 1-screen physics puzzler levels. 100 real levels spread across 10 chapters. And no level has the same combination of enemies or obstacles. And @Acumen, not only will we have 20 backgrounds, but they all have full multi-layer parallax!

    The crazy thing is, everything is going at a pretty good clip. This week we added 15 more levels, and I worked on a lot of supporting elements like the title screen and map.

    My best guess for launch: Halloween. Fingers crossed.

    Thanks for your continued interest!

    Halloween is quite far ahead. How dare you take your time and polish this game till it rocks, while you could throw it out there at mediocre quality !
    Stupid quality standards :eek:

    Sweet icon! Looks perfect for the game, and like "Ooh, I'm hungry. Time to go play pizza vs skeletons." Can't wait for this to come out. Definitely an instabuy, just for the skeleton crushing fun! If you release at Halloween though, I think the app will do well on the charts. Hope this turns out as awesome then I imagine it :D

    wow.
    great idea and great artwork.

    i feel a little bit ashamed, that we make a zombiegame, because we hadn`t any idea, what else we could use as a "hero".

    i`ll buy your game for sure (snd steal your ideas ;) ).

    I honestly didn't think much of this when I first got a whiff of its development. I'm pleasantly surprised at how polished this looks. Well done. :)

    I don't really think the level select thing you have so far is working to your favour. It has a feed me oil kinda vibe, while you have a rather specific color palette otherwise.
    I'm sure it's stupid nitpicking again but I think the color scheme you have for most of the stuff is kinda pastel like and these level icons are kinda very strong and harsh in colors and contrast. It looks very modern and kinda breaks the style for me.
    Just a tiny bit over the top. But since I failed so often in the past about such style blabber stuff, I just keep quiet now :D
    You're doing wonderful !

    Hmm, actually I think you may be onto something! I really wanted the icons to stand out, but maybe I've taken it too far. I'll revisit the color palette for that screen. Thanks!

    Sweet! Glad to see you're doing well with the updates and such. Bummer that it likely won't be out by Halloween though, but hopefully you can make it there still somehow. Oh well, glad to see this is still doing well, looks awesome, as always :D. And the pizza custimizor looks amazing! And the boss levels sound like a ton of fun.
