So it has been about a year since ZGame was cancelled. I started working on the project in the late months of twenty-eleven. Everything at first was going great I achieved a perfect art style inspired by the sprites of the original Final Fantasy on the Nintendo Entertainment System / Famicom. I loved the look and I was quite impressed with myself considering this was my first entry into the indie game market. Every game I have been working on since ZGame has looked awful even though I use an ever better photo editor (Paint.NET by the way, it is free and good) and back then I used MSPaint which alot of people hate.
The original plan was for three episodes each one with a new setting in each episode. The first episode was to be set in a rural American town, the second was to be a fancy city based on Los Angeles and the third another city based on New York. In the first episode you play a detective with a crummy life a bit like Max Payne, two you were a famous actress who was brave enough to fight the undead and three you were the most unlikely of heroes an indie game developer.
Now in the description I said something ironic I said '(A side note the third episode will come out, we are not Valve :D)' what a stupid thing to say. Atleast Valve released Episode 1!
Now after a long time of thinking I thought one day I am going to come back to this project and hopefully I will get it done.

Now me and Tom are still developing games. Tom's main project at the moment is working on Epsilon Pangaea and I have been working on a 2D platformer. So that is the end of ZGame.
