Nice game
Good game not as scary as i wouldve hoped and the ending was a let down but there is a wide array of weapons and different items to use through the game. Is there going to be another; and for the users playing this game the first part of the begining movie (SPOILER ALERT) IS NOT YOU!!!
Very good.. but...
Ok.. it's been a long time since I've done a serious review, but here goes:
Visuals and Sound: The atmosphere is very creepy, the music and sound is a plus. The drawings are very well done, (though I could draw a still of a zombie better, but when it comes to animation, I'd probably just get lazy and clumsy with it, while you maintain it throughout the whole game. The blur of zombies flashing past you when you turn or enter a room is brilliant!
Gameplay: The weapons did what they were expected, but no matter how low the weapon's damage was (really, only the broken mop and torch fit in the low catergory damage.) the zombies were very easy. Of course, the stronger weapons are just over kill then. The guns, limited on ammo could still be used throughout the game even if there are no extra shotgun shells and only two clips. (Conserve your ammo! Run out in a fight? You can go to the inventory and reload! It pauses the game.)
For those complaining about the movement, it's not that hard. Just stay focused to your surroundings, and make your direction choices wisely to avoid getting lost.
The elevator puzzle was clever at best.
Story: FOR GOD'S SAKE! Give us a story. Sure it's fun to make your own story (MediaMag playing an elaborate prank or hoax? Or something way more sinister by their part?) But I would like to know what you meant with the setting. What happened? Why us? What is our fate? (Being bit, I would assume though that we would start a zombie epidemic.)
Btw, why couldn't he just walk out the front door? Why can't he stand the light after being bit??
Other: I really enjoyed the game overall though, and your inventory system is to be praised. (Though you should make it where important stuff can't be removed. At least one weapon, and game important items should be glued.)
Plus, when searching the dark room, I was expecting a jump scare, BUT NOT LIKE THAT!!! God dammit, I almost shit my pants!!!! I praise you for being so clever as to have the zombie appear like that!
First, I was just cautiously scanning the room with my little spot of light, expecting a scare, or creepy thing. I scanned the whole room when I moved my mouse to the left to click my inventory, when from the right, I'm suddenly attacked! I jumped so high.... anyways, I didn't realize I had my lighter mixed with my spray can, so I took quite the beating before realizing I could defend my self. (Good thing I had that medipack.)
I wet myself =P
It was scary but man it was slow it didn't feel like zombie suvierl it was just a horror movie in real life you would go in the building let alone the zombie room =P what was a barret clip doing lying in a office xD

Personally my own definition of solving the problem of being trapped in a building full of zombies, is to get out alive and unzombified. Haven't gotten into the game yet, but here I go. :)
