Okay, it looks like RJ is about to resume the development of RS.

Please come and vote (http://roguesurvivor.blogspot.com ). The more attention he gets, the more inspiration he accumulates!

[Robsoie]

Great news that he didn't lost interest in his awesome piece of survival/rogue/zombie game.

[Deon]

Okay, to attribute these awesome news I am starting to work on a tileset (and further a mod) which will make the game much less forgiving and hard to survive. Guns will be deadly, zombie bites too. You will run in fear and hold on to your pistol like your last hope.

The main difficulty will be the lack of status icons! That's right. The Impact is Major . Items blend with surrounding, zombies which attack YOU have red glowing eyes and yellow if they attack someone else, otherwise their eyes are dull. No more exclamation marks.

You will have to look after your hunger and sleepiness level all the time, no more huge "H!" and "Z!".

Sleeping people will close their eyes. That's right.

You can still mouseover and read info, but you will have to be less careless and more concentrated on what you do.


You may ask me "why do you make it so complex"? Because I am developing a new realistic tileset.


Currently there's only a "male survivor" graphic from the new tileset. I will change everything else accordingly.
Notice the shadow .

Some progress:


Would you guys want the original "demonic" type monsters for higher level undead, or "mutated" type?

[Megaman]

Deon, you should add a stomach growling( a simple ripple around the stomach) and a 'sleepy state' instead. It makes no sense at all that you could die of starvation or be very tired without even knowing it. Does everyone in the game have some kind of disease that stops the body from sending signals to eat and\or sleep? Are zombies just in advanced states of it? Excuse me if I sound a bit harsh, but really.

[Deon]

How could you NOT know it when you have two huge bars in your UI?

I only remove the icons above your head.

[Megaman]

It still helps to have some larger apparent signals of it.

Deon, that tileset is so sexy that I want to make love to it all night long

It does, but it breaks my immersion . You still can see all the info if you pay attention to small details or mouseover characters. It's the point of the mod and tileset

Ancanthus... okay?

[kulik]

Oh, that looks nice. Im voting for the nondemonic higher level undead, or "mutated" type.

[Deon]

Yeah, I don't like too much "religious" fiction . I prefer sci-fi.


Female and cop sprites.

[Acanthus117]

Or fantasy, if you're finicky like me.

And I retierate:

Deon, that tileset is so sexy that I want to make love to it all night long until my pelvis breaks and I am crowned Exarch of Love or something

Okay, I finished all survivors and their look. Now I need to fix many items and finally draw new zombies. It will take a while.

By the way, are we okay with splinter-cell-like BO?


P.S. I was tired of the goofy look of gangsta, so here's the new gangsta design:

[Deon]

Almost done .



Here you see different hairstyles/clothing, stone walls and a new "groceries" item image (bottom right corner).
