Game Basics
Game name:
• Feeding the Zombies (tentative)
Game outline:
• The player takes on the role of a pizza boy looking for a washroom
in a model agency. There is no power in the building - the player
must find the flashlight to be able to see better. As he walks in more,
he sees all the model zombies who died from starvation will try to
approach and attack him.
Game theme & Perspective:
• Surviving until the end, using a first person shooter-style interface.
Player’s Goal/Game Outline
Game outline:
A pizza boy is looking for a washroom in a model agency. The game starts with everything
dark. Dark enough to lack visibility that the player must find the flashlight to be able to see
better. As he walks in more, he sees all the model zombies who died from starvation will try
to approach and attack him.
Player’s Goal:
•
Get to the washroom before the bladder limit is reached, feeding zombies pizza along the
way to stay alive and beating the boss monster at the end.
Interface
Weapons
Player and weapons:
•
•
Pizza delivery guy with 24 slices of pizza
and other weapons along the game that the player
will encounter.
The player can select different weapons (as they
become available) by pressing the arrow keys on
the keyboard
Game Progression
Final state would be the boss, who can
stop the pizza boy before he gets to the
washroom door.
The boss can be eliminated by using the
weapons that were picked up along the
game.
Mechanics
Fast moving Characters – The player has to
focus on the game once it starts.
Uses directional keys to move, space key to
shoot and shift key to change weapons – The
player can avoid moving between the mouse
and the keyboard when the major controls are
located on the keyboard
Forms of Fun
• Intellectual problem solving: Surviving and beating the boss
• Comedy: Satiric parallel to reality (how models are starving
themselves to maintain the slimmer look)
• Thrill of Danger: Zombies pop up out of nowhere and getting
hit too many times kills the player, forcing restart.
• Power and Application of Skills: The ability to attack and
usage of different weapons changes the attack results.
