Zombie Wasteland Goners Is In Development
We just heard about this game from the lead developer of the title, Jason Ozubko, and all I can say with how early in development they are is that my interest in piqued. I can’t for sure say it’s going to be awesome but I do kind of hope that it is.
Zombie Wasteland Goners is an original strategy game that’s in the work. To start with we have an early trailer shown here thats got a very oldschool pixel style for the art and let me tell you – I LOVE games done in this style. It’s a turn based ‘board game’ in concept though it’s clearly going to have a lot more going on with the information that’s listed below (Make sure to check out the screen shots for more of an idea on the game play though do remember it’s still in VERY early stages of development.)

What’s the game about?
Goners is an online zombie board game of survival and betrayal. The game is played by 4 players who take turns roaming the zombie wasteland, killing undead and sabotaging each other. And in fact, this last point is where the real fun of the game comes in. Players are given secret goals at the start of each game. Whoever reaches their goals first, wins. And hence, each player is trying to achieve their own goals, while making sure that no one else reaches theirs. And yet, no one is really 100% sure what anyone else is after: Is he trying to kill you or keep your alive? Is he heading for the chopper or looking for the cure? Is he trying to be a hero or trying to run for his life? And thus, paranoia and sabotage run rampant as everyone scrambles to sneak to victory, sabotage their opponents, and avoid the constant threat of brain-eating zombies.
There is a lot of early concept art, an art request, and more general information available at Zombie Wasteland Goner’s Blog.
