First complete release of Generic Zombie Shooter. Generic Zombie Shooter is a game where you kill as many zombies as you can. You have a variety of weapons to help you, if you can scrounge together the money to buy them, that is!
Weapons:
- Popgun
- RTPS Assault Rifle (Rooty Tooty Point & Shooty)
- Boomstick
- The Flammenwerfer
- Hand Eggs
- Flip Flops
- Shiny Sticks
- Laser Wire (at this point, I ran out of clever weapon names...)
- Sentry Gun / Turret
- Big Red Button
And if the variety of weapons isn't enough to keep you alive, there is an experience and leveling system that will let you enhance your maximum health, damage, and speed. Keep killing those zombies, and you're sure to overpower them eventually!
The game's controls are as follows...
WASD - Movement keys.
Left Mouse Click / Hold - Fire Weapon or Interact with GUI
Mouse Scroll Wheel - Cycle through available weapons.
0-9 - Select various weapons.
P - Pause Game
B - Open Store
T - Open Experience Screen
There are plenty of zombie types, and even a few bosses, to keep you busy. Here is a complete list of the zombie types.
- Zumby, just a plain old zombie that does nothing but shamble toward you at a modest pace.
- Rotdog, what appears to be a dog that is missing some skin and rotting all over. They move reasonably fast.
- Upchuck, a green zombie covered in boils filled with acidic pus. Don't get too close, or he'll spit some at you!
- Gasbag, a similarly disgusting brown zombie that will explode into a cloud of "gas" when he dies. If you are hit by the gas cloud, you will become poisoned. They move reasonably fast.
- Big Mama, the mother of all zombies. This ugly whitish-haired monstrosity is a ticking time bomb. If you do not kill her fast enough, she will explode into a swarm of tiny Zumbies. The explosion can hurt, too.
Bosses:
- Aberration, a... tentacle monster? Whatever it is, it's not friendly. It is a large mass of tentacles with a mouth on top that will spit large quantities of acid at you.
- Zombat, these zombies will appear in small groups of three, and are rather odd to look at. They fancy themselves flight-capable, and flap their arms incredibly fast to do just that. If you get within range, they will sap your health to restore their own.
- Stitches, the big daddy, so to speak, of all zombies. This abomination has the appearance of a ragdoll with its parts mangled and stitched together. On top of doing the highest melee damage of any zombie, he has a stinky aura that will poison you if you get too close. Also, every so often, if you're close enough, he can throw a hook at you, that if you are hit by it, will reel you in closer to him until you can break free.
There are also a number of items to help you.
- Health Pack, will heal you for a modest amount.
- Ammo Crate, somewhat rare, but will give you a decent amount of ammo for a single weapon.
- SpeedUp, will make the player move twice as fast for 10 seconds.
- Unlimited Ammo, stops ammo consumption for the RTPS, Boomstick, and Flammenwerfer for 10 seconds.
- Extra Life, kinda self-explanatory, I hope.
- Experience Multiplier, doubles the player's experience gain for 20 seconds. Make it count!
- Invulnerability, makes the player invulnerable for a short time.
- Night Vision, makes it easier to see for 30 seconds.

The LIB folder and BAT file MUST be in the same folder as the JAR file. Simply run the BAT file to launch the game.
I hope you have fun with my game. This is the first large project I have completed, and I hope to make a less generic game my next time around, with better art assets and sound.
