Heyo!

This is my game, The Deserted. Unfortunately I didn't come up with any awesome ideas so I decided to make something that can't fail, A ZOMBIE SHOOTER :) !

WASD to move and mouse to shoot!

Requirements:

.NET Framework 4

XNA 4.0

Really awesome zombie shooting action. though it would be cooler if there was a goal, get to the boat, the chopper, or anything like that.

Thanks! I had bunch of ideas in my mind, but unfortunately I started writing the actual gameplay code only 10 hours before deadline so I didn't have enough time make any story line etc. I actually stopped coding just couple minutes before the deadline :) Hopefully I understand to focus more on the gameplay in the next LD.

More gameplay would have helped (especially some explosives), but I understand the time crunch. Didn't have any bugs and overall a good entry

haha, very well done, wish there had been an actual goal, more weapons and sounds.

can't test, don't have a windows box and XNA4 doesn't run under WINE

Man this was fun - good graphical decisions made here... really could have benefited from sound - but it was cool. I found myself coming up with all sorts of theories in my head to answer the following questions: "Why do all the Zombies look like me? Why did I appear in the middle of the island? Why does the gun never run out of ammo? This light source isn't gonna run out, right? Is there a way off this island? Where are all the zombies coming from?"

It's cool that you could make me care enough to formulate theories as I played - even though I knew my theories would never be confirmed!

I would play it, but I'm on an iMac.
