Hi everyone. The beta for the forthcoming Steam version of OMG Zombies has now officially started and we’ve already been getting lots of very useful and positive feedback from the beta team (thanks guys!) However, we are looking to increase the size of the beta team a little further so we’re making a few more places available. If you’re interested in getting your hands on the game early and helping us make the PC port of OMG Zombies as good as it can possibly be, then please do contact us using the form here.
Despite all the hard work that’s currently going into the Steam version of OMG Zombies, fans of our Vita games shouldn’t feel left out as we’re making excellent progress with our firefighting roguelike, Flame Over. The team have been working incredibly hard and from what I’ve seen, the game is looking better than ever, particularly with the incredible amount of detail in the environments. It will undoubtedly be the best thing that Laughing Jackal have produced to date. We’re particularly proud of the flame effects, which not only look really impressive, but also have a very sophisticated model to calculate the spread of fire between objects and rooms, turning small waste paper basket fires into raging infernos if they’re not dealt with promptly.
There’s still plenty of hard work ahead on what’s turning out to be a very ambitious project. But, while we still need to add more functionality, we have reached a huge turning point where Flame Over’s initial environments are fully playable enabling us to start balancing game play – and that’s where the fun really begins!
We’re expecting to have more news on both the PC port of OMG Zombies in the next few weeks and Flame Over later this year, so do please keep your eyes on the blog.
That’s all for now. I’ll be back next week, but until then you can join us on our Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Google+ pages where we will be posting all the news from Laughing Jackal.
