I remember playing the demo awhile ago. It is rather fun. Glad it is doing well.

Well, that was quick: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1944625487/omni-move-naturally-in-your-favorite-game

$ 700,000 in a few days. Apparently Virtual Reality didn't die in the 90's

43 days to go, rofl.

My only main gripe would be the peripherals, that gun thingy they were using looked retarded and I rather not play with a controller. Now, time to find a realistic model gun with kickback and that vest that simulates you getting shot, then off to play some arma with that stuff.

I'd also have nowhere to put that thing really.

 

[Austupaio]

Don't you have a big place?

 

[Kevlar]

I guess I could put it at one of my spare mansions

Probably a prototype. That's why they need money: to polish it all up.

I could stay in shape and lose weight while playing games!

How about that and CLANG together? Could be good mix for medieval fighting games.

 

[Sartek]

Yeah hope it isnt only for fps games, as they currently only seem to have a gun. Every other game was being played with a controller. This thing defintely is not worth getting a controller. . And you also need an Oculus  Rift and we don't even know how  expensive that will be

 

[Adorno]

Pretty sure it'll be a wake up call to quite a few people.
Just think how much you run around in a standard FPS.
20-30 min. of gaming and you're wasted. 

Imagine getting in shape at the gym to play video games. It's a whole new world.

 

[Duh]

Imagine getting in shape at the gym playing video games.

Never understood why so few of them offer that.

I highly doubt anyone would really manage that. You still wouldn't even be fit really, you would simply lose weight and potentially gain more muscle in your legs.

Surprisingly pretty voxel survival zombie crafting tower defense rp game... i believe that was all the things included.

I disagree with most design choices they have made. All zombies know at night where you are? Thats idiotic. Zombies start sprinting when in dark? Sigh, who thought that was awesome?

Game sounds awesome, but I dont agree with their choices and from that I think I can safely say that this game will not be what I want and thats fine.

I have The Dead Linger. THat game so far has nothing I dont like. Every idea devs have had I agree with. Its a good thing there are so many zombie games lately, everybody will most likely get something they like

 

[Duh]

All zombies know at night where you are? Thats idiotic. Zombies start sprinting when in dark? Sigh, who thought that was awesome?

I doubt its all zombies, but i would think that the whole idea of base building and defense relies on 1) enemies that attack at certain intervals (nights) and 2)time to rebuild and upgrade(day)

For what they are going for both of the design choices make quite a lot of sense.

 

[Sartek]

Like I said, there is a zombie game for everybody nowadays, and this one, I dont like. Not what I want my zombie experience to be.

 

[Duh]

Yup, just pointing out that their choices arent idiotic.

Exciting stuff.
The title worries me though, as I've never been too fond of time limits.

 

[Sartek]

Thats not what the title means. The title refers to the virus in the game. Once infected, you have 7 days til you turn. I dont think its in the game, but its in the lore.

 

[Sethaniel]

Cheers then.
Does that mean player infection will be one of the features? Most zombie games omit this, and I can understand why, but facing the risk of a slow but permanent death due to infection would probably do wonders for immersion. In fact that's probably the whole point of the zombie concept. I've never been afraid of zombies in video games otherwise; they're just regular enemies skinned as rotting corpses.
