replayability High-score List

[jinjan]

Hi all

 

Perma-death games are harsh, but I become very fond of the challenges inherent therein. PZ is no different. One thing that I think it can really do with, though, is a high-score list. Nothing too complicated; the following would be very useful to have:

• name of character
• cause of death
• survival time
• zombies killed
• favoured weapon
• infection status

The overall ranking would be based on survival time (longest being highest), as this is the whole point from the get-go. As this information should, theoretically, be able to be stored in a small file, it would be really cool to have the top 100. I've attached a mock-up of what it might look like in-game.

Without the impractical method of having your stats-screen open on death and taking screenshots as you die, you lose all this info. Even if you play like this, there is no way of keeping all of these details that I know of. All the perma-death games I developed an undying love for have this feature. It allows users to reflect on previous games, challenge themselves to do better and remember the greats.

 

Sincerely
jinjan

Think the way he died should be there too, for example: "Thought he was Superman"
