Title: Cottage....OF DOOM!
Post by: idolminds on Thursday, October 18, 2007, 05:04:50 PM
One of the indie game sites was holding a B game competition. You know how B movies are so bad they are good? Same idea applied to games.

And we got Cottage of Doom (http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=456.0) out of it. Theres this cottage, and its split into 4 rooms. Theres some stuff inside, like crates, chairs, tables, etc. Each room has several doors and stuff. Now, outside the cottage are zombies. Your job is to keep them from killing you, so you close doors, put stuff in front of them to barricade them, and you can shoot  zombies with your shotgun. New items spawn in, so if something is broken you'll eventually get another to replace it. Of course, you might be breaking your own barricades because busting furniture is how you get more ammo.

Graphics are pixely, the "story" is hilariously bad, the controls could use some work...its a B game. And its totally worth playing.

Why not play Zombies Ate My Neighbors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombies_Ate_My_Neighbors) too, a double feature!  The SNES version is terrorific.

Heh, indeed.  I should really throw that on my PSP.

EDIT - You know what's scary?  How much I love this game.  Seriously, try it.

I went through installing the huge .NET 2.0, and jumping through hoops to get the MS 3.0 installer for it from somewhere other than busybody Windows Update, for THIS?

How do you aim?  I can't hit the broadside of a barn with the shotgun.  It seems like both the arrow cursor and the '+' are off.  I have a very hard time getting Guy to do what I want him to.
