Looks kinda cool. Judging from the image the only thing that kinda looks wierd is the zombies all look the same.

It's still an alpha build so a lot of it is place holders :D

ltachiUchiha4418d ago

Yeah i didnt know that but still looks to be a pretty cool game.

I'm amazed no one is bringing up Zombie Panic: Source....

I swear I could put barricades wherever I wanted..... it was scripted in specific direction if Horizontal, Vertical or Diagonal, but it still allowed me to place boards across doors, windows, hallways and the like so as long as it connected properly....

;o Oh well, 'Freedom' defined I guess means 'Involves more physics' than what ZPS offers.

The attack of the killer zombie clones XD that would save some work at making the zombies not look the same.

Anyways, it be nice to have a better zombie game.

Resident evil 4 is also a game that has barricading doors. But it doesn't have zombies. Im glad theres a zombie game that has one. I don't get why they eliminated it in RE6 and just a little in RE5

After Raising $155k on Kickstarter Zombie Survival Game The Dead Linger is Dead

Serena Nelson writes: "Okay, so let's get the giant putrid elephant out of the way first. Despite raising roughly $155k on Kickstarter in 2012, and being released on Steam Early Access in 2013, The Dead Linger has officially been shelved indefinitely."

Well, Kickstarter is still a gamble. Not everything is gonna make it. Probably too ambitious of a project fro the builders. I think Zombies are on the downturn too... FINALLY!!! Sorry, I'm really sick of zombies.

155K for this game is not enough?

GregMicek3501d ago

Even more than that when you consider that it was on Early Access for quite a while, so they also got money from that channel as well.

MJunior3501d ago

Oh no. Scams has leveled up.

The Dead Linger’s Unfortunate Yet Inevitable End

Hardcore Gamer: he Dead Linger has become another unfortunate casualty of too much ambition funded by enthusiastic backers who won’t be getting what they paid for, but speaking as a backer, I can’t fault the studio for trying.
