I enjoy the chance to throw a few dollars at a good looking indie. I've only mucked around a bit so far, but I like what I see. Reminds me of Fallout quite a bit, which is of course a great thing.

A few questions...

1. Am I right that there is at present no actual way to save your progress?
2. Is there any way to actually cook the soup? Can you even eat at current?
3. Anybody else wish game time would pass much slower?

I'm making a game called "Innkeep!", where you run an inn set in a low-fantasy world and try to lighten your guests pockets. Forum topic here.

To cook the soup, craft together a pot, the soup can, and a can opener, take what you make, put it in an oven, turn on, second later turn off, take out. To eat, use the item on your ragdoll's face, as in click the heart and drag or click food (I've never actually played the game) and onto your face icon.

1. Not that I know of.
2. What the guy above me said.
3. Nope, I think the amount of time that passes is a good amount.

You know your goinrg to have a good game when the tech demo gets people excited.

So, did anyone else accidentally smother their wife in a bid to comfort her with pillows?

I swear, I just wanted to make sure she was comfortable, maybe have her elevate her leg or something. The next thing I know, she's apologizing for slowing me down and using my tender gesture (the pillow) as a means to part from this world. Crazy bitch.

You know a game is good if people are pirating the tech demo.

But really this game is just...awesome. Keep up the good work!

"Always have to steal my kisses from you" was on and I swear your avatar was dancing perfectly to the beat boxing at the end.

I just started reading World War Z and I never stopped to consider, before the book, how helpless humanity is in the zombie apocalypse.

World War Z has done better things for the Zombie Apocalypse than pretty much all the zombie video games put together. (No offense Zomboid.)

One day some developer is going to commit to doing WWZ The Video Game, and if it succeeds, it's going to change how people think about zombies and killing them from there on out.

sucks is that you can't just sleep next to her, nope gotta kill her. oh well when the hacks to the tech demo comes up for changing the text to fit a more option friendly approach.

Actually, you can sleep next to her now, in the newest version... although i would still avoid the pillow if you want her alive while you sleep...
0.14 or whatever its called, makes it a lot less.. insane.. ie, zombies travel in large groups rather then just being in large groups everywhere.. although you will still die if you start making lots of noise, regardless of where you are :D

Yeah, but the Project Zomboid lifetime thing doesn't even need to be included in my opinion. The games they already made are good enough!

So I take it me having to play it through my browser is a security thing at this point, I'll get my standalone when 1.0 hits?

I'm already really amazed at the level of detail. It's kind of hard to navigate a house, but it's very moody right off the bat. Very nice.
