The player is in full control of the hero. He can tell him where
to go and give commands like ‘open the door’ or ‘pick up the shotgun’. Making
the wrong decision leads to a gruesome death, but some players fared better
against the zombie hordes and made it to the final boss battle against an
enormous axe-wielding demon. Along the way are numerous nods to classic video
game elements, like the ‘mash “X” button to escape’ scenario and hyperbolic health-replenishing
pickups.
The UK production team released a companion behind-the-scenes
video which you can watch below. The
first person style was created using a helmet cam consisting of a motorbike
helmet strapped with a GoPro camera and a Teradek Cube encoder which streams
live HD video to the web. Repainted Nerf guns substituted weapons in the game, which
include a shotgun, a machine gun turret, and a rocket launcher. The sound was created
with a soundboard of around 40 to 50 sound effects, while the zombies were
played by extras from the local town. The final boss was an actor dressed in a modified
Space Marine suit donated by a cosplayer.
