Three Dead Zed
Gentleman Squid Studio | Released Jan 24, 2012
Three Dead Zed is an action/puzzle platformer drawn completely by hand. Breaking out of a testing facility, players take control of an experimental zombie that can transform into three unique and distinct forms. With quick reflexes, a little problem solving, and some rescued kittens, players make a violent exit that won't be forgotten by their captors.

Latest News: Three Dead Zed - Controllers and Linux
0 comments by GentlemanSquid on Apr 11th, 2012
Hello everyone!
For patch 1.5, we wanted to standardize how gamepads interact with Three Dead Zed (3DZ) between Windows, Mac and especially Linux. We are proud to say that, by utilizing Java, controllers are now natively supported across all platforms.
Also with this most recent patch, we revisited the sound delay issue reported by some in Linux. Unfortunately, Adobe stopped support of AIR for Linux resulting in poor sound support. With the solution below, your overall experience with AIR and Flash sound issues should be minimized or completely removed. While the solution is for Ubuntu 11.10, it should work with other distros utilizing their command lines.
We are continuing to improve the game and look forward to releasing patch 2.0. With this patch, we will be expanding the game with more challenge levels and new graphics enriching the world and experience absolutely free. We are so happy to see most who are playing Three Dead Zed are enjoying it and appreciate your support.
1.5 is currently available.

The following issues and fixes are known to work with most Ubuntu distros (11.10). The text files Read me and Linux_Readme are included with each version of Three Dead Zed in the "help" directory:
Controller doesn't work
- FIX: Java must be installed. Read/write permissions MUST be set on the controller events for the game to properly read them. You can either set the permission manually on every system restart:
- open terminal - Ctrl + Alt + T
- set permissions to events - sudo chmod a+r /dev/input/event*
- enjoy!
Or create a custom permissions group for your user to allow for permanent read access to the controllers:
- open terminal - Ctrl + Alt + T
- create new permissions group "input" - sudo groupadd -f input
- add user to group - sudo gpasswd -a USERNAME input <
- create new input rules file - gksudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/99-input.rules
- in editor, add lines - KERNEL=="event*", NAME="input/%k", MODE="660", GROUP="input"
KERNEL=="js*", NAME="input/%k", MODE="664", GROUP="input" - restart to update udev permissions
- enjoy!
source = Sourceforge.net
Audio Delay: Ubuntu currently has an issue with Adobe flash players and latency.
- FIX:
- open terminal - Ctrl + Alt + T
- edit environmental variables - gksudo gedit /etc/environment
- in editor, add line - PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=20
- restart to update environmental variables
- enjoy!

I´ve just start playing and the game amaze me, its an original and fresh new zombie game. I love it
I am extremely impressed with this game. WELL WORTH the small price as it is a very fun game. It reminds me of Trine in the way you switch back and fourth between the three characters, and that's a good thing. I recommend this game 100%, and you can get it bundled with three other games right now until about april 9th for 4 bucks! The 4 bucks is well worth this game, and you get three others to boot!
Thank you for the kind words!
Don't forget all! Raffle ends tomorrow! Purchase a copy and please give a review and you'll be in the running for 1 of 3 shirts (3/24/2012) Thanks!
Looks really, really nice guys. Unfortunately you forgot about Indie Rule #1: always have a demo. You also forgot about Indie Rule #2: ALWAYS have a demo.
I know I may sound harsh, but for a lot of people (me included) not having the ability to try the game before they buy is a deal-breaker, not matter how low the price may be.
also review help you will see diffrent taste and diffrent review in such time when no demo is available try to read reviews on the game. it will give you an overall pic of what kind of game is this. especially videos on youtube
You don't sound harsh :) We're learning! Trying to juggle a few things unfortunately, but one should be coming up rather soon. We tip our hat to you fellow squid!
thanks for the linux version.
You can add the function joypad on linux
Working on that ;) Actually a lot of awesome things we're working on for 3DZ. Thanks for your support!
Follow Gentleman squid on twitter (and/or maybe Facebook) and you might get a code for Three Dead Zed! This game is great. Reminds me elements of Trine and Super Meat Boy, simple and efficacious.
