Gunslingers & Zombies Devlog #41 - ”Strategic approach!”

Hello Gunslingers!


[h2]Fighting zombies is not just about shooting and slicing your opponents! Without proper strategy you might find yourself at the mercy (or rather lack of it) of the horde![/h2]

[h3]Early Access Release - 15.01.21 - Don't miss it! [/h3]



Sometimes it might be just enough to play the mission by ear. Throw some of your units here, lead them to the other place, fight whoever comes by and in the end somehow secure a win… But in more complicated situations where there are many zombies around and they all approach you from different angles you might quickly understand that it’s not enough to just blindly shoot them all as they come.



You might want to employ some kind of tactic at that point then. For example - take a look at the screenshot above - you can try to defend each other in a sturdy turtle tactic where all your characters are next to each other and they all cover for each other. It’s a defensive tactic but it sometimes will work wonders.



Obviously, if you prefer to gain some terrain and want to move from the spot you’re defending you might prefer something a little bit different. 2 frontliners and 2 backliners sometimes will work great and also let you save some ammunition to use later. By switching members of two lines you will ensure they all stay relatively healthy and always ready to act!

Don’t underestimate the number of Zombies and make sure that you’re playing according to your greatest strength - your brain!

Best regards,
Gunslingers and Zombies Team

Gunslingers & Zombies Devlog #40 - ”Loot to survive!”

Hello Gunslingers!


[h2]Sometimes you gotta use what you find laying on the ground in order to survive![/h2]



In some missions you will have to find additional materials in order to finalize them. There might be a different reason for that - perhaps you're trying to repair a carriage or maybe you're going to barriccade yourself from the large horder of zombies. Either way - you need to find suitable material to use it this way.



Sometimes you'll find what you need simply laying on the road. Be mindful though - there is a limit of how much can your characters carry at the same time. Just like in real life - carrying too much might simply be impossible to do! Notice the number in the left bottom corner of the screenshot visible above - that's the important thing.



Obviously, it's not just roads that you can check - buildings are on the list too. Some of the will hold valuable materials that will help out on your journey and allow you to venture forth in the uknown.

Just remember that if there is a lot of opponents guarding a single piece of materials - maybe it will be better to simply leave it be...

Best regards,
Gunslingers and Zombies Team

Gunslingers & Zombies Devlog #39 - ”Weapons statistics”

Hello Gunslingers!


[h2]We've already talked a little about different weapons that you will be able to use in the game but this time we would like to let you see statistics for some of the guns that you will be able to use in the game![/h2]



Different weapons do different things or at least do them in a different way. As you might imagine knife is essential in close combat - that's an easy thing to spot. But what about the differences between different type of guns? Let's take a look at them.



Reunion is a revolver with a limited range and not the best damage. It's accuracy is quite good and it boasts 10% chance of doing critical damange. It also has 6 bullets in its magazine which is always an important factor since it times the moment when you will have to reload the gun.



Winbuster has overall better statistics than the revolver. You might ask - why would I use the other one than this one? Well, obviously, you will not always have an easy access to the bullets for this particular gun while revolver might be a little bit easier to obtain.



Hereford is a shotgun that boast higher damage than Winbuster, however it comes with some drawbacks - mainly a limited amount of bullets that it can hold at the same time. In the end it will depend on you how well will you use it in combination with other guns.

Many other guns might find their way into your hands so be sure to always check their statistics to not be surprised!

Gunslingers & Zombies Devlog #38 - ”Stars and goals”

Hello Gunslingers!


[h2]There’s nothing quite like a feeling of victory. After all winning is so enjoyable and we all like to win… but there’s one thing better than winning – it’s winning in style![/h2]

Think about – there are certain moments in your life when you can do bare minimum in order to somehow scrape by. Well, you can even do the least required thing and still win in something but we strongly believe that if one is to do something they should do it as close to perfect as possible. In Gunslingers & Zombies we will have a goal and stars system to check how well did you manage to defend your characters and their cities.



As you can see on the right side of the screen – there are particular goals that you need to be mindful of when playing through a mission. Those goals can be different and only by fulfilling all of them will you be able to achieve the highest possible rating – 3 stars.



If by some unfortunate accident you will not be able to get all of the goals as in the picture above, where we weren’t able to save one of the currently burning buildings, then you will still be able to finish the mission however not with 3 stars. The other possibilities are of course two stars and one star.



Of course you can always repeat the mission to try and achieve that perfect score so make yourself comfortable and aim for the highest possible mark!

It’s all about style…

Best regards,
Gunslingers and Zombies Team
