Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn News

Here's a picture of a doge.
Now that I have your attention, let me ask you something.
ZKW, and campaign mode.
Yay, or nay?


I'm sure all of you already know, that after the first few hundred rounds, ZKW tends to get boring. I've tried to come up with multiple ideas that would make the game more interesting, even on the later rounds, but nothing seems to be working for long.

So, this one particular idea has been in my head for a few years already, but I never haven't had enough time, or interest to make it happen.
So, this campaign mode. The gameplay wouldn't be changed too much. You could still play as long as you wanted, BUT with a little twist. Once you've gotten to round X, a door would open. Or any other kind of transition thing (train, car, plane.. Hole?) in which you could enter, and you would then go to another area of the map. So, let's say you're in Abandoned Hospital. The door opens, and you go in there. Boom, you're now in another section, as big as the first one, of the hospital.

Each level would have 3-5 sections in total, and once you've finished them all, you win. Yes, sounds weird? Winning in ZKW? Well, yes. You would win, survive another day. But you could still just stay, in any of these sections, and make your last stand, just like now.

So, any ideas? What does this make you feel?

Well.. Here we go:


-Probably the biggest update in a loong time! OverKill system is something that lets the most hardcore players continue their joyrney with even more awesome, and new stuff even after hours of playing! With OverKill, everything you do, is OverKill!
Let me explain briefly.
Once player levels up to LVL41, she/he will be given a option, to reset their leveling progress for an exhange of OverKill perk. There are a few OK perks in this update, but more will come some time in the future! One of these perks, is this little thing, that allows you to choose two perks, instead of one!
PS. If you're level 80 or over, don't worry! OverKill resetting will only take away 40 levels from your progress! Which means, that if you're a LVL80 (for example) you can select TWO OverKill perks in total!


-This one is a high roller. If you see one of these. Run. You may have a chance of getting away.


-A weird scientist and his sidekick are here to kick some zombie butt!


-Mister "Nope, not coming" -Tank has changed his mood, and will make an appearance from now on when he's supposed to!
-Other silly bugs fixed
-Some silly bugs added? Who knows?


-Well, that is a good question. I don't really know the answer even myself.. I've really lost the motivation for making games a few months back, and I'm still trying to get it back. It's really frustrating, as I would have tons and tons of cool ideas for ZKW, and for other games, but I just don't have the motivation to do anything about it.. Really sucks. But don't worry. I'm not ditching ZKW. Nope. I'm just making progress slowly. I hope you understand this, and just give me some time.


Ok, that's that! Go slay some zombieeeess!

You're having problems with registration, logging in, multiplayer, or anything else that has something to do with online?
You're not alone.

This morning, I discovered that there might have been an attack on our servers. I've already contacted our server providers about this, and we'll see how we can get this situation fixed. Unfortunately, as it is weekend right now, it might take a few days before we can get this solved but please, try to understand. There's really nothing more I can do at this point, as I can't even access to the servers myself. So, just sit tight!

ps. You can still play the game (single-player) without any actual problems. Your progress just won't be saved in the cloud at this point.

EDIT:
It seems that the problems are now fixed! Enjoy! :)

Ofcourse I care! Don't even ask something like that. Geez.
Anyways, as you know, it's been a long time since the previous "proper" update, and now I'm here to fix that.


True.. True.. Well, not really.
I just lost my motivation entirely for some reason. But now I'm getting it back! If everything goes well, you will be getting a new, proper, update for ZKW next weeks Friday! (22.4.2016)


Actually, I'm not yet sure about it all. I have so many ideas I want to make. But! One thing is for sure atleast.
You will be getting fancy..ed new player-menu (well, I just made it more fancy, that's all) and..


Overkill is something that's really made for veteran ZKW players. Once you level up to Level 40, you will be given a option to reset your profile (well, only your level, really) and by doing so, you can select one of these OverKill "Perks". Currently, there are 6 of them, but I might be adding even more. I'm not going into details of what these special perks are just yet, but let me tell you.. They can change the gameplay very dramatically.
Also note, that it's not a must for someone to reset their profile. You can play to level 100 if you like. But if you do, you will actually be able to choose 2 OverKill perks! Let me explain.
When a player chooses to reset their profile for an OverKill perk at Level50, their profile will be resetted only to Level10. So, choosing an OverKill perk makes you go back 40 levels. Which means, that all those veteran players with Level80, or more, havent actually done it all for nothing!
I'll also note you, that it is possible to achieve every OverKill perk there is, as they are infinite. Once obtained, it will stay on forever (unless you choose to start a whole new game, that is) There still are couple OverKill perks, that only work once, and you can't select them anymore after it's been used.

I really hope this makes any sense to you, but if not, don't worry. You'll see what's up next week!

Keep slaying, and I keep developing!

Again, I'm so sorry it's been so long since the last proper update. This time, I thought I'd atleast try to add something new in the game, and so I did.


-Almost 100 entitys, grounds, and backgrounds for Level-Editor, taken from the "Area 73" map for everyone to use!
-Server glitch is now fixed
-Some other small bugs



Wow.. That was.. A-lot.
Anyways, keep slaying the zombies!
