One of the big keys for us is that we stay true to the core of the original N.Y.Zombies, even after adding a ton of new features and game-play elements.

Yes YES!!! I'm extremely excited about this!!! Do you think it will run on 2nd gens? I don't want you to have to keep the graphics lower just for older devices either, though!

We'd like to send along some art every once in a while as we go through the dev process This first screen is one of the revamped enemies in NYZ 2... do you remember which one?

Anyway, with NYZ 2, we're shooting to really make this game brutal and serious... there's been a big trend towards "cutesy" stuff (not that that is BAD by any means), but this game will be more about immersion, atmosphere, story, and a sense of dread. We'll be trying to take everything that made the 1st one good, and expand on it! The sequel will also still focus on hordes of zombies... even with better graphics we still are going to be shooting for MASSIVE battles

@ninjackid -- this game will not be compatible with older devices With normal maps, higher poly counts, and other advanced effects, they just wouldn't be able to cut it...

THANKKKKKKK YOUUUUUUUU! This is exactly the type of game the app store needs. Just a suggestion but with the type of game your shooting for you really should try and implement some kind of huge boss battles and def keep a brutal difficulty level for us hardcore gamers. Those would be my two wishes. Lol. Anyway thanks for the updates guys. You always keep the community posted on ur games

And that's the fat guy from NYZ with the stop sign. At least I think

This seems as close to Left 4 Dead as we'll see on the iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch.

Holy s***.

Excuse my French, but this sounds freakin' AMAZING!!!!!

And I totally understand about not being able to support older devices... Hopefully by the time this is released I'll have a new iPod.

This just continues to look better by the update, and I was already excited.

We are definitely going to shoot for some huge/awesome bosses And of course, there will be a fair share of regular huge enemies as well... if you've played the 1st NYZ or Bug Heroes, you know we're into having a ton of different enemy types/variety, and using that to build up some deep strategic game-play around.

As far as a "nightmare" difficulty... count that in as well It will likely only be unlocked as a special mode though.

Good blood,gore and weapon effects is all I'm asking for + some weapon variety
