Dead Planet - Design DONE!


Well, after 5 days of designing Dead Planet, I think it's about time to start building the engine. The game is looking great, your a special operations soldier with high tech gear. Basically, the story is that the City Of Lousanna is under siege by Dark Undead Ghosts, your job is too survive in the city for as long as possible, while killing as many undead ghosts as possible.

Each day requires you to survive 4 waves in your selected building. 
Wave 1 is at 6 PM ( 10% darkness )
Wave 2 is at 12 AM ( 10% darkness )
Wave 3 is at 6 AM ( 15% darkness )
Wave 4 is at 12 PM ( 80% darkness )

After 12pm, you can choose which building you want to loot and spend the next night in. You can find food, water and weapons ( which you'll all need to survive ) from looting houses. 

So basically, the game has been designed, I've thought of the weapons, got some awesome/creepy music, drawn the map and designed the H.U.D ( Heads Up Display ), now I just need to turn it into a game! Sounds easy enough. :P

  1. How can you build the engine when you can't even make a button without copy/pasting the code? :P

  2. I'm learning action script, this game will take months to make unlike your rushed " made in one week " games, it'll take a month mainly due to learning how to make the engine.

  3. Plague, my game wasn't rushed. It actually took like 2 weeks, and I worked hard. I have it so organized I can add a new gun in like 5 minutes. (But the grenade launcher and rocket launcher took longer.) Btw I still don't think I'm done with it yet. :D

  4. So GB, are you planning to just stick with flash? Or are you going to dive deeper into the water and work for a team when your an adult? I mean there's nothing wrong with sticking with flash your entire life, you'll become an expert and lots of noobs will look up to you and ask you a thousand questions, but one day I want to be a designer for a zombie game :)

  5. I don't know. I would like to work independently in Flash for a living, but it would probably be a hobby, as it would be hard to make enough money :P
