i gotta agree with you there, i would have expected some sort of zombie survival game to surface, it's a really easy idea to build off, and who doesn't like killing waves of zombies?

it does start lagging a little around wave 20, but as long as you don't leave too many zombies alive at once i haven't noticed much lag, and i'm playing on a computer that can't run any of the online servers without lag.

if you don't keep your walls in good shape it will eventually become near imposable to keep them standing, a massive termite infestation starts if you don't keep killing them, and once you get too many termites, you can say goodbye to your walls. although, once you get to wave 20 there's no way you can keep every wall up, the dragons take them down too fast, but you can keep most of the building alive, just keep a eye on the walls and if they seem to be taking damage faster then shoot the wall and the area around it a little to check for termites.

actually i could have scripted it a little neater... that's mainly my fault, but when i first made the minigame i wasn't thinking about posting it here, and scripting it the "neat" way to me is messy, i think this way is neater and easier to read. when i got the idea to post it here i didn't want to re-script the whole thing so i just posted it as it is, thinking no one would look at the script anyway.

and about the bomys, they are supposed to be fast, they die in just a few shots, and only deal 10 damage, if they are causing too many problems look into using frag grenades to kill them, 1 grenade will almost always kill a bomy if it hits, and that way you can kill several quickly. another tip is to run diagonally so it's harder for them to hit you.


thanks for all the good feedback everyone just out of curiosity what wave is everyone dying on?
