Hey Guys,
Our new update for PGU has just hit. just in time for Halloween.
Once again, this is our biggest update yet, toward the end of building it, I seriously questioned why we didn't just turn this into a stand alone app. I can't even call it a mini game, it's a full on game and I see a lot of apps on that are not nearly as solid as this one.
so you play a pygmy with an axe that gets teleported to the Zombie Dimension (which looks an awful lot like the the zombie island). You have to try and make your way through the level by cutting the heads off all the zombies you come across. Each zombie takes a different number of hits to decapitate but luckily their heads show their damage level. at first you just see a cut on the front of their heads but eventually you start to see their exposed brain and with the sides of their split head hanging down like a banana peel.
There are 4 different types of Zombies,
Pygmy Zombie, who rips off his arm and throws it at you like a boomerang.
Vampire Bat, who attacks you with a sonic scream.
The Moon Witch, who uses acid spit. Keep an eye out for her in the comic.
Big Booga, who alternately spits his teeth at you machine gun style or summons a magic rain of death consisting of skulls and bones.
We also have health power-up grave stones and hidden ghost extra life power-ups.
There are 8 levels and it's pretty tough. I can get through all 8 levels with 3 lives, but a lot of people have trouble getting past level 3. but you just need to practice jumping around the objects the zombies throw at you. It's really fun once you get the hang of maneuvering around quickly.
For this game we built some new tools to help us do these kinds of games easily. We are using it for our next app and evolving it even more. so hopefully this will open the doors for new stuff coming in the future.
oh yea, and I guess we use blood in this update. It won't happen often but we thought it would be ok because it's just zombie blood..
