Zombie stuff is always a seller for me, so yeah, I am looking forward to this one. Should be some fun indeed.

Should check the latest binary.  It has been getting better and better.

I like this demo.  Very creative!   

MORE!!

It sure is creative. This also shows you don't have to have spectacular graphics to create addicting gameplay.  The latest version has black backgrounds that work much better, I think.
