So, while searching for homebrew Gameboy Advance games, I found a cool site called PDRoms. I also found that they had a version of a game I co-created with a rather awesome friend of mine; Hungry are the Dead.

I’ve sent them the more recent version of the demo we made and then thought it worthwhile to post on here, my own blog. 

You’ll need a Gameboy emulator to be about to play it, go do a search for one.

Hungry are the Dead

A tactical-horror game (as far as I can tell, the first ever) were you control a party of upto five people trying to make their way to safety. The plan for the completed version had 6 areas, each area having a number of levels, characters to save who you could allow to join your team, a large array of items (and just enoughammo) an interactive storyline and multiple endings.

The final demo contained one full area consisting of 13 levels. Everything is working as it would have in the full version. I do believe it’s rather awesome, if I do say so myself.

Controls:

This is a turn based game. You start out with 4 action points (AP) and 2 health points (HP).

Point the arrow in the direction you wish to go and press A to move that way. If you have a weapon, press B to bring up a menu, choose Shoot to bring up the cross hair to aim at a zombie. You can also choose Aim to improve your chances of making a successful shot.

Tips:

• Zombie move at half your speed (they have only 2 AP)
• Successful shots are based of your distance to the target, Aiming greatly improves your chances and you can Aim multiple times.
• Getting bitten will kill you.
