I check this page every day, and have for a long time, I am so excited I have a 4 dollar balance I’m just saving for this game when it comes out on iOS App Store! This is the first time I’ve commented. Do you think this might be out before the end of the year? Thanks! 😀
Please make co-op up to 4 players in the local WA-FI and online please do it! Me and my brother are waiting for the rellse so we can play together sorry 4 my bad engslih
you should really release an early alpha for us just to give a little taste of whats to come. its like cooking a good stew, you want to give it a taste before its done or else you might over cook it or the others might become impatient and decide not to eat it.
Tyson you said in the game we will be able to recruit NPC’s, but.. will we be able to make the NPC’s secure a bulding that we bulid or we like so they can become like our house bodyguards and will protect us when we are in the house for some money.?
Also, will the NPC’s follow us when we get in a car.?
Sorry for the long questions. 😀
If I remember correctly, there’s supposed to be a safe zone with a lot of NPC’s where you can trade stuff with them, to be honest, I don’t remember when or where I saw that, probably here.
Can you make it HD for iPad? This game gonna rock the AppStore it’s paid or for free?
If it paid its fine I can but I wish it’s free
It’s gonna be better then cod zombies and dayZ LOL
Oh boy thanks for the update, I was eager for my zombox fix, Tyson, please for the love of god tell me if it’s gonna be supported for the iPodT4, cause if it’s not, I’ll have time to star saving for my new device, seriously, I wouldn’t mind picking up a new device just for this.
According to wikipedia, the iPhone4 and iPodTouch4 have the same CPU and GPU. The only main difference is that the IPT4 has 256mb ram, while the iPhone4 has 512mb ram.
NICE so do these zombie animals have special abilities like the skunk has a poisones spray attack or the cat can throw claws or the bear has a charge attack or something?
this is exciting! the animals will add some more variety to zombox. And perhaps open some doors to some more features. maybe if you break the cage a bear is trapped in, it will go on a zombie killing rampage. Or if the dog spots you, it will start barking which would attract more zombies. And as always, do what you think is best Tyson 🙂
Hey , pretty Awesome Game .
Please dont make bosses , they suck.
Can u maybe bring out a beta for like 1,5 bucks in Spring ??
Sorry that i didnt left my e-mail here .
What software do u use for music-production ?
You could also find some guys here on ur website to help you ,
because (i think you already know ) its hard to develop a game
alone.
Are there any persons that help you with your work ?
you know what you should do tyson is that not all zombies should be walking around and stuff cus in a zombie apocolypse there are many corpes lyng around, some are zombies and some are truly dead, so in this game there could be bodies lyng around, some would come up and try to kill you while other bodies would stay there, so that could force the player in precaution like if there is a random body in a house then the player has to be carful cus the body might be a zombie or it could be truly dead. Just like in almost all zombie games like Dead island or ZombiU.
Aww, I was really looking forward to it like Christmas or something :/
You could always release it on the iOS App Store first and just give updates to it like Mojong did with mine craft? 😀 and then when you’re all finished release like the Mac version. But the App Store is cool cuz you can release a game and just add updates to it. I am Soooo looking forward to this!!!
Dude it’s just like what Fadi98n said, you shouldn’t rush success, otherwise it would make the game look bad, I mean mojang should have thought of this when they released Minecraft PE cause their were many bad and buggy things in it like no crafting and chests and even if they continued to update it, the damage was done Minecraft still has a 4 and a half star rating even if it is good right now due to it getting low star ratings when it first came out. So let Tyson discover the variable of what he should put in the game so when he releases it, zombox would get a full 5 stars!
Nathan is right i mean minecraft PE is really awesome but, it is really buggy what tyson is doing is to create a flawless game so it doesn’t matter if it takes time to finish the game because the outcome will be epic.
thats awesome!!! glad i could contribute ideas even if pets are a no go it would still be pretty awesome to find a zombie bear in the wild and kill for special crafting items or a quest.or maybe even get certain food from them u can eat 🙂
Zombox in its current state will never have an infinite world.
As for weather, I’ve thought about adding snow and stuff but one of the problems with that is that as soon as you start adding more complex shaders to the game, things lag on iOS devices. So currently there’s a rain cycle and a daylight cycle, but nothing other than that.
Hey, i think that now is a good time for Zombie Survival games, DayZ, this, Project Zomboid, The Dead Linger… All of which are SURVIVAL and not just shooters like CoD or L4D (which are still fun but…)
Tyson i was on other sites when i heard you mention about Zombox 2 but i have to say this, I realized that in your blog you are giving everything you got in this game and since you are squeezing every great idea out of your head the only thing new in Zombox 2 would be multiplayer, so I wonder………What if in Zombox 2 you play in the medival ages? that would be awsome because that means there could be dungeons, new armor, and new characters like mages, knights, or assasins? For mages you could cast spells and enchantments over weopons, knights have incredible durability, and for assasins(if you know Assasin’s creed or Backstab) you could be stealthy and climb on buildings and stuff like Altair!?
Yeah sorry Tyson cause I should have known Zombox would be too awsome and epic to have a sequel. Plus I asked a magic eight ball if you are going to be rich and it said yes O__o.l
Well yeah.. snow might make the game laggy.. but maybe you could make snow like rain maybe? i mean the animation but make it different .slower (feather like). Or how about make a different area snowy?(kinda like minecraft)
As for infinite world.. try if u can
and you know what? you should make a survival mod! hordes of zombie.. endless rounds!
tell me what y’all think
Anyway.. i just had an awsome idea about daytime and nighttime!
how about make the game turn daytime 7am to 7pm on the ipad clock..like pokemon diamond. when its day the game is in daytime,when its night its night time
Guys I got a idea of “respawning items problem” let’s say randomly a helicopter flys and drops a stash of supplies somewhere in the city and that would fix the unrealism if items do respawn.

I don’t think it’ll be out by the end of the year, unfortunately!
Please make co-op up to 4 players in the local WA-FI and online please do it! Me and my brother are waiting for the rellse so we can play together sorry 4 my bad engslih
I’m so excited too!
Yay finally!! Can we interact with them?
Shame its just for iOS atm the way the game looks and sounds it would probably have a way bigger community if it had a PC version coming instead
It will be on PC, I think he has mentioned a PC one, at least a little demo for game sites
There are an PC version on a web I believe I saw him playing the game with his mouse controller
its coming on steam so cheers
They look so cute with those red eyes! 😀
you should really release an early alpha for us just to give a little taste of whats to come. its like cooking a good stew, you want to give it a taste before its done or else you might over cook it or the others might become impatient and decide not to eat it.
I am so happy that you have finally gotten back to development on Zombox. This was coming along splendidly!
Awesome!
Tyson you said in the game we will be able to recruit NPC’s, but.. will we be able to make the NPC’s secure a bulding that we bulid or we like so they can become like our house bodyguards and will protect us when we are in the house for some money.?
Also, will the NPC’s follow us when we get in a car.?
Sorry for the long questions. 😀
Yeah I want to know if NPC companions will ride vehicles with us
If I remember correctly, there’s supposed to be a safe zone with a lot of NPC’s where you can trade stuff with them, to be honest, I don’t remember when or where I saw that, probably here.
But I don’t know if they can ride vehicles….
This is correct.
As for riding in vehicles, that’s on my far-off “to do” list, but currently they cannot.
thanks for the reply 🙂
you can find the NPC’s in the sewers i think he said once
I dont want to kill a dog/ cat… 🙁 but if i can keep them as a pet… then HELL YEAH. and why are do all the animals have bloodshot eyes?
They’re zombies too!
Can you make it HD for iPad? This game gonna rock the AppStore it’s paid or for free?
If it paid its fine I can but I wish it’s free
It’s gonna be better then cod zombies and dayZ LOL
If its free then he will have to implement some currency that you can buy, and i don’t think any of us want that.
Oh boy thanks for the update, I was eager for my zombox fix, Tyson, please for the love of god tell me if it’s gonna be supported for the iPodT4, cause if it’s not, I’ll have time to star saving for my new device, seriously, I wouldn’t mind picking up a new device just for this.
It should be able to run on the iPodT4, yes 🙂
I don’t have on to test it on, but it’s basically the equivalent to the iPhone4, which it can run on.
I love you ._. thanks for the reply T XD
Now we play the waiting game…
Ehm sry , but the iphone is way more powerful
then the iPod touch 4g.
According to wikipedia, the iPhone4 and iPodTouch4 have the same CPU and GPU. The only main difference is that the IPT4 has 256mb ram, while the iPhone4 has 512mb ram.
My fault , thats unusual for apple.
How many RAM do zombox need ?
NICE so do these zombie animals have special abilities like the skunk has a poisones spray attack or the cat can throw claws or the bear has a charge attack or something?
I hope to do something similar to that, yes.
this is exciting! the animals will add some more variety to zombox. And perhaps open some doors to some more features. maybe if you break the cage a bear is trapped in, it will go on a zombie killing rampage. Or if the dog spots you, it will start barking which would attract more zombies. And as always, do what you think is best Tyson 🙂

“Jason”
Tyson, are you thinking about adding more item slots to the game and by the item slots i mean the three slot “hot bar” on the top.?
Nope, I think 3 is enough. I don’t want the HUD to become too cluttered.
ok, thanks 🙂
i know i’m asking alot of qustions but, how will you be able to make a sheep hostile i mean i can’t think about hostile sheep.? 😀
(With Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) I’m back………..>:)
Lol I was about to summon you due to our rough past.
you know what you should do tyson is that not all zombies should be walking around and stuff cus in a zombie apocolypse there are many corpes lyng around, some are zombies and some are truly dead, so in this game there could be bodies lyng around, some would come up and try to kill you while other bodies would stay there, so that could force the player in precaution like if there is a random body in a house then the player has to be carful cus the body might be a zombie or it could be truly dead. Just like in almost all zombie games like Dead island or ZombiU.
Now that’s a great idea, it would keep the atmosphere tense while you’re roaming through the city.
i like your idea 🙂
Nice to see you’re back!
Aww, I was really looking forward to it like Christmas or something :/
You could always release it on the iOS App Store first and just give updates to it like Mojong did with mine craft? 😀 and then when you’re all finished release like the Mac version.

Yeah i remember playing MC PE with my buddy and he couldnt die and had infiinite tools and stuff XD
Have you considered launching a Kickstarter?
Here’s hoping for an Android and PC version, too!
Tyson I commented before and was my suggestion on animals and pets any way related? 🙂 any response is fine
Yep, I try to implement good suggestions people make 🙂
However there are currently no pets in the game.
Yeah, i dont usually care for pets in these types of games, but i like the planting you implemented a while ago, that was interesting
thats awesome!!! glad i could contribute ideas even if pets are a no go it would still be pretty awesome to find a zombie bear in the wild and kill for special crafting items or a quest.or maybe even get certain food from them u can eat 🙂
Will this be on the android market as well?
i think pets would add a good thing to a zambie games but some times its just anoyying still waiting for the game
Tyson .. have you thought about adding random dead bodies on the streets or whatever..and like, the dead bodies have items
oh and special types of infected like l4d-l4d2..or how bout infected animals
Here’s another suggestion.. Weather! It’ll be awsome if the weather could be snowy,sunny,cloudy etc..
And how about infinite world(i know this is alot to ask for.. its just a suggestion) and different places like a city, swamp, jungle etc.
I’d like to know what’s your opinion on this .. Epic game btw..
keepmup the good work!
Keep up* damn ipad
AGREED, except infinite world might not work, i don’t think that our poor iOS devices can run that stuff after a while can they?
Zombox in its current state will never have an infinite world.
As for weather, I’ve thought about adding snow and stuff but one of the problems with that is that as soon as you start adding more complex shaders to the game, things lag on iOS devices. So currently there’s a rain cycle and a daylight cycle, but nothing other than that.
Hey, i think that now is a good time for Zombie Survival games, DayZ, this, Project Zomboid, The Dead Linger… All of which are SURVIVAL and not just shooters like CoD or L4D (which are still fun but…)
even though they are all mods or alpha or something XD
Tyson i was on other sites when i heard you mention about Zombox 2 but i have to say this, I realized that in your blog you are giving everything you got in this game and since you are squeezing every great idea out of your head the only thing new in Zombox 2 would be multiplayer, so I wonder………What if in Zombox 2 you play in the medival ages? that would be awsome because that means there could be dungeons, new armor, and new characters like mages, knights, or assasins?

I dunno Tyson whatever my master sais sounds good but its your call man
I’ve jokingly mentioned “Zombox v2” but that was just hyperbole because the features I was referring to won’t appear in this version of Zombox.
The doesn’t mean I’m serious about developing v2 🙂
Hahahahahahahahahahahah LoL Nathan you should pay more attention XD
Yeah sorry Tyson cause I should have known Zombox would be too awsome and epic to have a sequel. Plus I asked a magic eight ball if you are going to be rich and it said yes O__o.l
Well yeah.. snow might make the game laggy.. but maybe you could make snow like rain maybe? i mean the animation but make it different .slower (feather like). Or how about make a different area snowy?(kinda like minecraft)
As for infinite world.. try if u can
and you know what? you should make a survival mod! hordes of zombie.. endless rounds!
tell me what y’all think
tyson, do items respawn in Zombox.?
What do you mean by respawn?.. dropped items?
Anyway.. i just had an awsome idea about daytime and nighttime!
how about make the game turn daytime 7am to 7pm on the ipad clock..like pokemon diamond. when its day the game is in daytime,when its night its night time
tell me what y’all think 🙂
by respawn i mean chests respawning after they are already looted.
well i dont think so.. maybe? but if they respawn thats just too easy to get items..loot..wait.. than loot at the same place D: no fun i tell ya..
anyway..Tyson..
do zombies spawn randomly? or the zombies have spawn points? like they will be zombies at that exact area?
and how about the land,area and stuff..when you play will the land generate randomly or the land is the same(by same i mean fixed positions)?
Nvm what i said about the land generation..i was looking at the older posts. im pretty sure is fixed. like have missions..where to go to and stuff.
if im wrong answer my question LOL
and another thing..Do zombies pop up from the ground?as in crawling up from the ground?
I think its randomly generated world http://www.zombox.net/?p=230#comments
http://www.zombox.net/?p=230#comments
Im sure its a random world generated
Snow? http://www.scri8e.com/h/xmas/CICED/SnoAni/
Whats the price are u thinking on this game?
And how much money you spend developing this game?
@gulo
Im sure its randomlybhenerated land

I forgot to post this lawl
Are you tyson ibele the guy who made the sony commercial?
anonymous .. Read what?
http://www.zombox.net/?p=230#comments
Add some traps for Animals and Zombies like Bear Traps etc.
even better..mines 🙂
Tyson..can you show me the complete gui of the materials,weps,melee weps,and stuff?
by gui i meant icons :3
why are there so many comments about the same thing?spam?
Guys I got a idea of “respawning items problem” let’s say randomly a helicopter flys and drops a stash of supplies somewhere in the city and that would fix the unrealism if items do respawn.
yea that would probably be better …
but random dead bodies..(as in corpse rotting on the streets) and have items on them would be great to :p
Yeah that too
Will this be for android as well?
Glad to see you back. As a unity user I find a great deal of inspiration in your work. Love the boxy characters and animals.
