Zombie Slayer is a Doom 3 mod that incorporates gameplay from games like Dragon's Lair and Shenmue, but with a twist -- you have three chances to successful input the correct key. Fail three times, and you are dead. The story: You are John McAllen, a mercenary hired for an outpost on Mars. You have been awoken from an alarm: Zombies have overrun the base. Now you and some other survivors must escape with your lives. A chainsaw zombie. A constant internal struggle between survivors. Infection. How will this end? The mod is split up into four chapters. Each chapter has a gameplay segment and a storyline segment. The two chapter demo is available now.
Two new screenshots are available. A website is also now up and running.

We now have a website up at Zslayer.com
Below are two screenshots: one from chapter 1 (chainsaw fun) and one from the chapter 2 gameplay sequence (zombie punching fun). As you can see in the chapter 2 gameplay sequence, Gazz's level design is really shining. Mystic Realmz's soundtrack in the background also adds a layer of depth to both areas.
Much has changed since the demo was released. Gazz, the former lead designer for Classic Doom for Doom 3, is now helping with the levels. As such, he is reworking the maps that were in the demo.
Due to player feedback, a checkpoint system is now fully functional in Zombie Slayer. This new system will be in the level that was in the demo.
Unfortunately, the entire team's schedule is incredibly busy, so we are pushing back the original release date of June 19th.
Zombie Slayer is now slated to be released sometime in 2008 or early 2009.
