    Our game is number 35 on indieDB! Wow! Check it out: http://www.indiedb.com/games/not-dead-enough-nde


    When we get the characters and zombies done with their animations, we'll have a gameplay video. Also, here's a news article I just posted to IndieDB:

    Hey guys, sorry that I haven't updated in a while, we've been heavy at work. Today, I'll be discussing some exciting news with you all. For you too lazy to read it all, I'll put bold-faced headings for categories.

    What We Have Left Until BETA Release/How To Get In
    The first thing I want to talk about is the upcoming BETA. All we need to do until beta is finish zombie and character models, and then animate them. This should be done in the upcoming weeks. The BETA will most likely be closed, so here is how you can get a chance at receiving it. All you have to do is comment anywhere, either on this news article, on the game page, or on our company page, or on the unity forums page, saying that you want in. That's all. If you win, then we will PM you with the link to the download. Sound good? Well, good.

    New Team
    So, we are now partnering with another team called backwards studios. They will help with models and animate, decreasing the amount of time that it will take to complete the game.

    on the first page the gas pumps look like they are made of concrete so i was wondering if that was intended because it looks awkward and like it doesnt belong but i like how you wore most of the textures out as if it were real because in real life nothing is perfect and polished

    as soon as this comes out i would love to make a youtube video on it if you would allow me
    sooo can i?

    Edited: that was awkward haha ignore that if you saw it

    A teaser would be fantastic! Since the game isn't completed, showing game play wouldn't be to impressive. :p

    Sprint does work, just not in the webplayer for some reason :| In the end the game won't be played from a webplayer so it shouldn't be a problem.

    @Nightmare Teaser trailer competition?!?!

    I also want to clarify some things before we go into beta. Because we are trying to get it ready for you quickly, there will be a certain amount of things that won't be available yet:

    -No other characters
    -Certain parts of maps blocked off
    -Not all weapons unlocked
    -Cars not available yet

    Everything else will be available as mentioned before!

    We're so close to BETA that I can literally taste it. When I came up with the idea of this game, I never dreamed that it would come nearly as close as it did. I have to thank my team for that. BETA will be in a month if you didn't know, and I'll post the download link here when ready. I also want to clarify some things before we go into beta. Because we are trying to get it ready for you quickly, there will be a certain amount of things that won't be available yet:

    -No other characters
    -Certain parts of maps blocked off
    -Not all weapons unlocked
    -Cars not available yet

    Everything else will be available as mentioned before! Also, depending on if we get a level designer, we hope to have the BETA by the 28th. That is, if we get a level designer in time *hint hint*. Also, we've decided to add horses, so if you run out of gas, you have a horse. These, however, won'tbe included in the BETA. That's all for now, stay tuned for more exciting news!

    This is just my opinion.

    You shouldn't be thinking about the price you wish to sell the game at this moment mate. Not to be rude but all I see is a few images of some models. Where is the scene? Where are videos of the game mechanics? etc...

    From my perspective, I don't see a game. I would barely even class it as a prototype at the moment. So, saying you are charging $20 seems silly.

    Of course, if you have more work done then you should add it to the main post to promote it better.

    Again, this is just my opinion. Others may not see it the same as me.

    We haven't released any sort of gameplay because we still have to finish the level. We just brought up the price so people could see. As soon as we finish the level, we will post a video ;).

    Sorry to be rude to you but instead of just skipping to the last few pages, read and see all the pages, we have posted numerous webplayer demos and etc. Make sure you have the info to back something up before you go and post something rude.
