Yes, also all files that will be used in your game must be in your FPSC directory.....

...a little hint of advice, I'd brush up the story a little, as it's a pretty generic, which makes it predictable and slightly boring....

In fact, making a zombie game is almost a noob trademark, check out how many there are, and all by newcomers....try something a little more original...

ya i will right when im done with this one but its just that its good to learn the lighting effects and triggers. but i have to tell you right know i think this game doesnt look noobis because i played some of thoughs zombie/horror and they were not good. because right now I putting in triggers and sound thats making it scary i even scared my self with my own game lol.

but i will try to brush up the story i was going to have all these secrets behind the story but I guess ill change it.


thanks for the advice though.

Ok, played it...

First, the menu screen, it looked cool, but do you have the permission to use the image? If you do, then awesome, if you don't... well, less awesome.

About the game: You should add more light. Like butt monkey said, it's frustrating to try to find your way in thick black darkness.
Also, there was a problem with the cellar door, it took me several tries to get through the door, which was pretty annoying.

You might want to add some more ambient sounds and music too, since now there's a lot of silence. More sounds would make it more atmospheric.

Work on it some more, do those tweaks, and you'll have a solid game

Quote: "The Story of:
The Dead Live


Well theres a truck driver named rick thats dlivering stuff to Hellsion on a very foggy night hes been driving for along time now and its about 12:00am then when he was driving in the fog something apeard in the street right in front of him. He quickly Swerves and runs off the road into a tree clipping the thing in the middle of the road. he fall out of hes truck and it quickly starting on fire. Then alittle after that he figures out that there zombies and has to fight to Survive.

theres alot of twists and turns in the story that will keep you thinking though the whole game and I do have the whole story but you will just have to wait intell the game comes out to find out what's going to happen.

hope thats a good story please comment on it and give me some sugestions.

thanks,
beachard5 "

I think he meant something like this set of characters:
1. Conker
2. Colonel X
3. Aiko
4. Zombie
5. AI

He probably meant a list of MP characters you can be.

I'm still interested its just people will stop caring if you keep uploading beta after beta.. Put up some more screenshots and videos and then people will care because they take 2 seconds to see rather than a half hour.

1. Too dark
2. Too dark
3. Too dark

And just becuase no one is interested shouldn't make you stop...
The reason no one has posted is becuase you havent show us anything. Also, they are all from the first level. Haven't we all played it???

I kind of like the darkness he's imposed. Combined with seriously
freaky music... that could be scary as heck.

THE DEAD LIVE STORY UPDATED


well i have been thinking a bit about the story and i came up with that. you Live in the city and one night you wake up becuase you hear something very odd. so you call the police (probaly what you would do if heard somthing very odd going on). The police station doesnt answer there phones so you start to wonder whats going on. So Rick(the character that your playing)goes and looks around the house only to find his wife and kids died. Rick starts to freak out and runs outside to find Mutated people(zombies). You try to get in you car but the doors are locked. So He runs back inside to find them but only to see that the Mutated people are inside the house so Rick grabes and weapon(undecided).

then you have to fight to survie and get out of the horable city of Hellsion.

Yes I do have what made the mutated people(It isnt what Dude232 said)I can't tell you because that would ruin the story. Theres still alot of twists and turns of the story.


please comment on this story.

The weapon could be the Sporting 12 (you could say it's a hunting shotgun). Good but generic story, 7/10.

Erm, its a VERY generic story.

A man wakes up in the middle of the night to find zombie mutant people have invaded the city and has to fight to survive.

Thats not generic... it's cliche ;p

Butt monkey theres a story inside the story if that makes since i cant just give away what made them and who the zombies got there. i know thats pretty stuipd if it was only to wake up and find mutated people.

Butt monkey can you please tell me a game that someone wakes up in his home and finds wife and kid dead. then with mutated people
if you can tell me a game then i will change the story.
