Hello,

I've been developing a run-and-gun zombie horror game. It's basically Left 4 Dead/Back 4 Blood, but in a 2D environment. 

You and three other players must complete tasks and slay hordes of the undead in order to survive. There are currently two game modes, one that involves players fighting from safehouse to safehouse, performing tasks to unlock the way forward, and another that involves defending a static location for as long as possible against increasingly difficult hordes of zombies.  Players can customize their character with unlockable skins, outfits, chat banners, and player perks. You can jump into a official server now, or download and host a private server for you and your friends to play.

I've spent quite a bit of time and effort designing, programming, and creating this little game. But one area I'm immensly lacking in would be promoting/building a community- let alone getting downloads/plays. I feel like the game itself is a fairly decently running game, and the concept is a fresh idea in the 2D game-verse at least. 

But, I'm starting to wonder if maybe I should focus my effort on another project or another game concept. What do you guys think? Here's a link to the project; https://nratliff2078.itch.io/quarantine-2

Hello everyone,

I'm quite new here, but for the last couple months I've been developing a 2D zombie game entitled Quarantine 2. Initially, I released a similar project called Quarantine way back in 2010, but I've decided to remake the project. I would really like to try to get the word out, as I'm not  really great with the advertising aspect of game development. There is a decent help file set up in the game to explain how everything works, and if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

You and several other players must fight your way through hordes of undead completing objectives along the way. There are currently two playable game modes; A to B, and Defend The Throne. 

A to B is similar to Left 4 Dead/Back 4 Blood, where players will start out in a safehouse and must travel to the next to complete the mission. There will be several objectives players must complete in order to progress further! Defend the Throne is the classic game mode featured in the original Quarantine. Players must survive as long as possible while rounds progress. Fans of Call of Duty Zombies will enjoy this game mode.

Several zombies throughout the game have additional powers. Some will charge and explode damaging all nearby players, while others will keep their distance while spitting acid. Customize your own game controls to fit your gamestyle. Mix and match weapon attachments to upgrade your weapon loadout! Includes customizable characters! Level up your character to progress and unlock new character sprites.

I have a couple testing servers running unless any major game stopping bugs pop up, it is completely free to play! I would really appreciate it if anyone would like to give it a try.
