Zombie Grinder

Twin Drills |

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.

Firstly - The Hat.

I spoke briefly in-game to Infinitus about this, and it's the classic propeller rainbow hat


and next the gamemode/map

I don't play them as much nowadays, but i used to be a big fan of moba games, like DOTA and LoL
I don't know how difficult it would be to make a gamemode for it, but i can imagine a map would just need so more spawn points for minions etc

(I lost the mockup map i was making due to my laptop overheating)
Thanks for Your time :)

EDIT: Spoiler! :D I was getting annoyed with only on control set, So Infinitus said he would take a look at adding another one for us gamepad users ;)

Zaxaramas,

Just so that I comprehend, you want zombies that attack one team and not another? I must admit that is a bit beyond my skills in mode-making... :( But probably easy for Infini.

that would be GREAT.

some of the hard things would probably be:

  • getting the zombies to attack each other
  • creating a "tower" type of place. maybe use turrets? can they be modified to have infinite ammo? or possibly a big zombie with huge health after you get the AI to recognize the other team's zombies as an enemy.`
