To quote: So I'm making a sequel to my top down zombie shooter They Do Not Die. It is being made primarily for PS3 but there will also be a PC version and there may potentially be a Wii port of it later.
This is just a very early build of it but so far the game already features a truly massive procedurally generated city that is populated by human survivors and zombies that you can shoot.
One thing that I have working already that I'm really happy with is the fact that you (the player) are not treated special by the zombie AI. They will gladly ignore you if there is another human that is closer to them. There is something really cool about walking down a street and seeing people being herded by zombies.
There is collision detection that makes you bump into other people and prevents you from walking on water but there isn’t any yet for the building walls.
You are the orange circle, human survivors are pink and zombies are green. I know that not everybody likes them but the arrow circles will always be the default appearance for people in the game. But I will quickly put together some kind of a re skinned version if there are any color blind or partially color blind players that are finding it difficult to differentiate between them and there might eventually be built in support for alternate skins.
I’ll be alternating between working on this and
The Unmapped Forest.
PS3 controls:

Below are the changes from his blog, as follows: Here is a small update for They Do Not Die 2 along with its first Windows release.
I've added blood and corpses. On Wii and PS3 they quickly shrink until they disappear but on Windows they fade instead of shrink (which I think looks a lot better) and there can be more of them in the game world at a time which means that they disappear more slowly.
I've also made a handful of minor and most likely unnoticeable changes (mostly related to city generation).

Well it would take him a lot of work but it would be awesome if he could pull it off.

To quote: Here is another updated version of They Do Not Die 2. Not a lot has changed but there is now a Wii version.
Notable changes:
Added on screen text showing the highest number of zombies you have ever killed before dieing (if you pass that high score then the new number will get saved when you die).
You can now play with up to four people (it was previously limited to two).
The position and size of the health and energy bars during multiplayer has changed.
There are now four different kinds of wooden crates (the differences are only cosmetic).
Menu text is larger and the title looks better.
Game saving and loading is even faster.
