Untitled (Zombienation) - 2D survival zombie shooter

[Mercy404]

It's looking really good, we definitely need a demo ASAP 

I can vouch for running Bresenham's line algorithm for each zombie on each non-zombie to check line of sight, then simply taking the first step in the path Bresenham comes up with for the closest non-zombie you have line of sight to as a very simple placeholder AI. It only took me an hour or two to get it working:

Entities locked to a grid
Unrestricted

Note that had I bothered to add some walls in for the video, the baddies would have stopped moving as soon as I broke line of sight with them. It worked in my Unit Tests, I promise.

Well then there would've been a big jump from 2D to 3D.

[Grimshaw]

Well, then he might need to change names

[Estivo]

Eh I have to change name No Zombienation is paused. Maybe one day Zombiention would be in 3D.

Zombienation is paused.

Oh.. When will you continue working on this project? Looking forward for a Demo!

[Grimshaw]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO,

I don't support this decision Let me plaaaay

[Estivo]

I will but at this moment I don't have much time for working on Zombination. Last change was nav mesh generation in Zombination. It's long way to past for demo, but I think It is possible when I will have more free time to waste ;p

Here you go Zombination is alive again. Like zombie! Check this out

[Grimshaw]

[Cadisol87]
