The Pixel Review Writes:
I recently asked Dead Pixel creator, John Common if he’d take the time to let me interview with him. I wanted a chance to learn exactly what goes into the making of a game like this. What design philosophies does he possess? What obstacles can be expected? These questions burned in my mind, and to be honest, I expected them to remain unanswered.
Imagine my surprise when, shortly thereafter, I received a response from him stating that he’d be happy to speak with me .
Now, onto the interview. Indie developers, take notice. This man knows his craft.
Perhaps ironically, many of these games are rarely played by people who still enjoy videogames from the days of the arcade and systems like the NES and Sega Genesis. This list covers retro-inspired indie titles that deserve more attention. We’ve excluded more well-known games, such as Super Meat Boy and Shovel Knight, from consideration. Also note that many of the listed games are free. Finally, this list isn’t definitive; it only covers games that we believe are as good as or better than the retro-inspired games that get most of the hype.
Chadley and Tristan of Punch Nerds crank up Dead Pixels on Xbox 360 and discuss Chadley’s uncleanliness, zombies that look like cabbage and how unfair the game seems to be to Tristan.
GamR Mag Writes: "We have seen nearly every possible scenario of zombies featured in games, from dark, post apocalyptic settings to using plants to ward off the undead. No matter how unique or bizarre their presentation, we here at GamR Mag love zombies, and these are our ten favorites of all time."
I have that on Steam, but I think I am going to get it with the Vita bundle. From what I played it was fun!
I do hope Ho-to-Survive is good, like 1 day left!
I had it on xbox and got to episode 3 before i stopped playing, then I got the Vita bundle and played it with the touch screen controls (and analog) and it was awesome I will defo get season 2 for Vita over consoles
State of Decay is probably my favorite, it's amazing for an arcade release. Can't wait to see what they can do when they make a full retail game.
I agree. Event though I was already excited about the game before it released I was stunned by how good it was for an XBLA title. While it's far from perfect I expect to see a lot of what Undead Labs did with their game being copied by other developers in future AAA titles.
For me, it's definitely The Last of Us. Had one of the best stories in a game in a long time, had great characters, and immersive gameplay. I even loved the multiplayer (though it doesn't have zombies). I do like The Walking Dead and Resident Evil, but TLOU was truly amazing.
Okay so people insist TLOU isn't just a zombie game and now people are insisting that it is a zombie game...well which is it
Well, the website listed TLOU, so I'm assuming they're regarding it as a zombie game. I never insisted on either, so I don't know what you mean by that in this case.
