Zombie Grinder is the debut game of TwinDrills, an indie game development duo made up of Tim 'Infini' Leonard and Jordan 'Jordizzle' Chewning. It's a multi-platform (windows, mac, Linux!) (also Free!) cooperative multiplayer arcade game, reminiscent in style and gameplay of retro games like 'Zombies Ate My Neighbors' and 'Super Smash TV!', but with the added benefit of some newer game mechanics - achievements, ranking, player-customization, rpg style stats and so forth. The game sports a variety of different game modes, from co-operative 'campaign' style levels, to wave maps and even the classic 'pvp' style game modes - deathmatch, capture the 'bag' and so forth. All of these mods are bristling with a variety of weapons and items, all lovingly displayed in Jordan's classic quirky pixel-art style.

I was wodnering if you equiped the emerald gem to a hat or accessory if the weapons still get the boost, also if its every weapon including ones you grab, and if there is a cap. Ty

If you equip and item with a gem in it, the gems starts are applied globally to your player. So if you have a +10% damage gem in your starting gun, but use the pistol, you'll still get the +10% damage increase.

There is a cap, but I wouldn't worry about it, its basically set to the maximum stats you can have so you probably won't notice it.

reason im asking is im a high dmg style player..... if i have a incen ammo then my other 5 slots will be 10% dmg increases with my stats already being capped lol thats why i ask... so im guessing its cap is impossible to reach?

also i know u said if u equip to weapon.... but if you equip to a hat or accessory will it give the boost Ty... btw awesome game

As I said, it dosen't matter what item slot the gems are equipped to (gun/hat/misc) it will still apply globally to the player.

Basically, the cap is set to the max % you could get from making all your gems 1 color, and maxing your stat points out (160%) to prevent people exploiting ;P
