[i] Dead by Headshot [/i] is an extremely indie title with a single location where you have to survive 5 hours (or levels) while being under siege by zombies. The best part of this game and what sets it apart from the majority of other zombie games is that it's faithful to the one golden rule of every zombie story: aim for the head. In fact, the only way to kill them is -[i] you guessed it [/i] - with a headshot. This, with the fact that you have a limited amount of ammo for every hour and each one brings more and tougher zombies, makes for a pretty fun and engaging gameloop. On paper this game should be right up my alley, so why the negative review? Well it pretty much boils down to the fact that clearly no preliminary testing has been done and it seems like it has been abandoned after launch. First of all, there are no settings for the game, so even something as pivotal as a sensitivity slider (in a game where you [b]have to [/b] hit headshots in order to kill the enemies) is absent, but that's not the worst part. The worst part is that this game currently does not have an ending. Once you reach the last hour and kill all the zombies the game throws at you, nothing happens; no …
Man, I want this game !, it's gorgeous, liked it so much what I could play. I tried and tried to make it work, BUT ... Has a really dumb BREAKING BUG: Lower the gun once, or use the weapon choice wheel, or use the 1,2,3,4 weapon keys, and THE GUN LOWERS AND NEVER RISES AGAIN. Freezes/trembles almost out of the screen. Touch 1, then 2, and the weapon rises for a second, then down below again. * Unplayable *. Refunded but, dev, I LIKE YOUR GAME, please fix it and I will re-buy it. --- Notes: The .exe of the bought game is named DEMO.EXE, not a good sign. WASD, Space jumps, R reloads. Q = Unarmed -what for ?-, 2: fails to keep the gun held up, C = crouch, Z = prone, P = gloves, F = flashlight (goes dark after a time, usable again after a pause), G = drops gun, K = suicide, N = gun safety lock -what for ?-. Has a game choice wheel, affected by the cant use weapon again bug. For those interested in C.E. : - Health, Stamina , both regen over time and are Type Float, 100.0000. - Gun ammo, Float, 6.0000, can change to 9999 or whatever. - Gun magazine, Type 4 Bytes, can change to 9999 or whatever.
