    In case you do not know what Box Head is, it's a very cool game where you try and stay alive as long as possible, and get as many points as possible by shooting zombies. There's usually eight maps to choose from in this flash game (in 3.0 OS, the developer can always make more maps and sell em' maybe?) and they're all great. Making the controls can be easy to make. Just look at the screen below that I made:

    [​IMG]

    How to Play...
    [Arrow Keys]: Move
    [FIRE]: Shoot
    [Slide finger on top-right]: Select different weapons (8 in total)
    [tap button on top-left]: Pause menu

    I would definitely buy something like this if someone decides to make it! Any thoughts would be welcome. Oh and in case you want to play this game on your PC (it's a flash game after all), just Google in "Box Head" and click one of the top searches (i.e gamefudge, etc).

    Just because someone should doesn't mean someone will. In other words, another useless thread.

    Maybe I came off forceful -- but I was only "suggesting" to anyone who would like to create such a great game to the iDevice. I don't see why you feel this is pointless. Ideas are always welcome to developers searching these forums ya' know. At least, that's what I thought.

    Boxhead has resemblance to Minigore. I would love to see a port though (wasted too many hours on the flash game).

    Yeah, I'm looking forward to minigore because it looks like boxhead to me. I remember logging lots of hours on boxhead in the computer lab at school. I would love to see a port.

    Yeah, I have it as well. The controls aren't as smooth and the game overall isn't as fun as the computer version, but it's still a decent buy for .99!

    Yeah, I have gotten 99 cents of joy out of it; however, it did crash on me today after playing 8 levels...anyone else experience crashing?

    No because I can't even get to level 8.....lol. Is there a strategy to kill the red/demon boxheads or anything? Just feels kinda clunky and not very well done trying to kill things

    I was going to say... This game has been out, bro. read about it days ago before it came out. On TA, too most likely, haha. Search engines are awesome, look into it:)

    In case you haven't noticed, the thread dates in mid-June. Why did you dig up an old thread for the purpose of pointing out that something is out? o_O

    the red devil just takes a lot of damage, you can kill him by spamming him with the pistol or shotgun...it's very helpful if you pick up autofire for either of these weapons...just be sure to keep moving so he doesn't get you with his breath weapon

    ...if you see him rock back, he's taking damage so lay into him, also laying down barrels or barricades really helped as it slowed him down too

    ...one strategy tip I suggest is to kill everyone but one zombie on a level and while they slowly chase you around, take this time to lay down your traps, when you're ready, then kill the last guy to trigger the start of the next round
