Where I write words and that, instead of working
“Oh woe is me!”, the programmer laments, “Art is so immediate, coding can be so dull. There’s so much less to show off. Sulk sulk sulk sulk – OH HERE IS A SCREENSHOT I HAVE JUST TAKEN BECAUSE I’M THE ONE WITH THE WORKING BUILD I CAN FIRE UP ON A WHIM”. So you’ll just…
Below is a short video demoing shotgun combat. Obviously in the final game, combat will represent only a small fraction of the gameplay but given that up until this point we had only released a couple of screenshots, we figured people might actually want to see a few things in motion. And if you’re a…
This weekend’s exciting Project Zomboid updates include: Fire! (doo doo doo – I swear I’m going to have that song stuck in my head for weeks now) Bloody Mess! (this looks great in motion as the lumps of gore are projected back from the force of impact. There’s also the occasional eyeball spawned for ultimate…
Werner and Walter Randelshofe have a website, part of which is dedicated to Deluxe Paint Animation (and equivalents across MS-DOS, Amiga, and Atari ST platforms). A whole heap of files are there to be browsed, sorted by platform and artist. It’s really quite the treasure-trove 🙂 But best of all, on their site they have…

He’s moved into our flat and that, so he comes at the whopping expense of 29p for some…
Woo! The lovely James Keating has posted an article on “the Indie ethos” over at Push-Start featuring Lemmy and I, and Project Zomboid. It’s pretty long because er… well, as anyone who has ever met us can attest to, we do rather ramble on and rant when somebody asks us questions about the games industry….
It looks like traffic killed our site, given that we got a completely unexpectedly large volume – which is great… but then your hosts get grumpy and break your site for you 😉 So, until Lemmy’s blog is restored or this part of the site also explodes in a fiery mess, you can at least…
I’m speechless, so I’ll let Lemmy do the talking.
Well that whole “Project Secreto” thing didn’t exactly last for all that long. Nope, balls to secrecy – we’ve got food that needs buying. Survive the zombie apocalypse directly in your browser. The first release will be completely free to play to give you a taster of things to come. Zombies are alerted by sight,…
