Zombie/alien base survival

[bondo67]

Just thought I would throw an idea across since I doubt ill ever do this...

What about a zombie/alien survival where you start off in an overrun base with facilities such as armory, turrets, hangar, etc.

The only exception is these facilities require certain prerequisites for use such as resources, rescued staff or activating power generators. These actions being possible in between waves outside the player 'spawn' area.

If overrun at the start, players may be annoyed.

How about kinda like spore. You invade a small area until your troops go bigger and bigger.

 

[bondo67]

lol I meant overrun in context, not in actual game.

You definitely would start of with some firepower while the additional 'resources'
may be accessed between rounds when your not fighting against the wave/swarm.

Of course you will still meet 'minor' opposition in activating power generators, etc.

In case I haven't made it clear earlier I thought that you could also have random instances where there are rescue-able personnel whom if rescued could either improve your defensive or production capabilities else further open up your arsenal against the enemy.

i like the idea.. maybe ima make one map on this when i get mine done

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Maybe you could make the map if he/she didnt suceed making it. It would sound as if you stole it.

 

[Dawn Whitelighter]

oh yeah.. sorry. i meant to say.. maybe i might do a map similar to this.. not exactly the same

 

[bondo67]

Lol thanks, I'm a guy btw.
You can use the idea, idc too much I somehow doubt I'll ever finish when I'm too lazy to do just an altered melee.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Oh sorry.

 

[Magnet199]

i agree with the spore one

Is this hero defense? Teamdefense? Survival? What genre is it?

And I like the topic, anything with "zombies" in it I like.

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Survival genre would be nice.

 

[bondo67]

While really its up to you, I saw it as a hero defense where if all players' heroes die the game is lost.

Zombies ftw
