    Sounds very similar to zombie master.

    But the difference is that you don't spam masses of zombies but there's only one zombie and after that more.

    Well, Zombie Panic for HL1 came out long before Zombie Master, so it would be the other way around with respect to similarity. I remember it being fun, the one level with the dance club was my favorite.

    The game needs some serious balancing, as it is humans have about a .01% chance to win any given map. It's good for a first beta though, it plays very smoothly and looks nice. Good atmosphere too with the lighting and ambient sounds. Other than balancing problems, I haven't seen any major flaws with the game.

    My favorite aspect so far is it seems you can pick up just about anything and use it as a weapon, at least for the few minutes you're alive before you're cornered and killed.

    i REALLY like that it's almost guarenteed that you'll lose. gives it a lot more atmosphere. winning is for losers.

    There's a bug where headshots infilict the same damage as body shots appearantly, and they are looking in to a bit more of balancing according to their CM. He said they're aiming for about a 70% win chance for Zombies, which sounds pretty good.

    It's really fun as it is though, especially when you try to barricade yourself somewhere, only to be overrun by a horde of hungry zombies. :P

    Ugh can't even get the game to show up on my Steam list, hell it doesn't even show up in the "SourceMods" folder.

    I downloaded it from filefront, I'm guessing the file is corrupted or something. I'm trying the rapidshare link now, hopefully that'll work. =/

    Actually I got it to work the second after I posted my last message.
    All I can say is it's pretty fun, kinda wish I could do that thing the the HL2 zombies do: Slap objects at high speed in one direction :D , but yeah it's fun, I like being a zombie & bum rushing a team of campers. [noparse]:D[/noparse]

    Main menu music creeped me out while I was binding my keys & selecting my spray. :p
