The control scheme is weird, but once you get over that (and bind the keys yourself), it's a really good game with lots of replayability as it's very short, but how you approach the challenge and what you prioritize is the real core of the game, and there's a ton of variety in here to experiment.
终于找到这个游戏 大概是10年左右吧那个时候电脑配置不好天天玩着一代，几乎把所有武器还有成就都解锁，现在终于在steam找到二代了感觉很感动，但是我同时也觉得二代相比起一代也更加难和复杂我到现在都还没怎么搞明白，还有我发现社区好像还没有相当全的攻略。PS:一代什么时候也能上架steam呢？
Thanks God！Finally discovering this game. It make me back to 2010 when i got a low-power PC and spent so much on episode 01 so that almost unlocked all weapons. I think episode 2 is much harder than episode 1, we need a 100% game guide. I love this series so much. thanks you for making those good games.(PS:when could we play episode 1 on STEAM?)
An intense, small-scale game of the type you play again and again to do better. And when you do, it's very satisfying.
Played the alpha during work hours. Loved the grind and was very entertaining. I still managed to get work done.
While the controls are a little wonky at times (being worked on, according to the developer[s]), the overall game feels engaging and unique. It's a tense blend of classic survival horror and point & click adventures, with a limited amount of resources you must combine in interesting ways to last out 10 or 18 minutes of a non-stop undead onslaught.
The 'gimmick' to STLD is that time limit. Every single second counts. Every single bullet matters, since there might only be a handful on the map. Do you open a door to let zombies in one-at-a-time, or keep it barricaded and deal with a mob later on? Do you try and run past an enemy (and take a hit) to pick up a dropped weapon, or do you run the other way and hope you're not boxed in?
I honestly haven't played another game that demands such meticulous attention, and the short (10 minute) playtime per-session means you don't burn out too fast. I've been playing a session at a time, and each playthrough I get slightly further in, solve another puzzle, or find another way to use my limited equipment to best effect.
The one criticism I would level against STLD is probably the nature of the 'puzzles.' Once you've found the key to the secret room, you always know where to grab it on your later runs. I can imagine that after a handful of hours and unlocking all the bonuses, the game would feel repetitive pretty fast. That said, there seem to be updates in the pipeline adding new weapons and new enemies, so it looks like there's plenty more to do in STLD. Plus, it's not like it'll break the bank.
(I played the original S:TLD back in the day, a.k.a. 2010, and loved it from the start, though I never got far. Still having the same problems here, but I attribute that to my own failings and not to the game! Totally had the same tense feeling as this version, so if you're reading this and on the fence about paying, pick up the freeware original. It's not as polished, but it's got the same tense atmosphere.)
UPDATE: Hell, I'm sorry, I had one more complaint. It's a double-whammy, a combination of the controls and the interface. More options for custom controls, more resolutions, an option to pause (what if the phone rings?), and other usability improvements would be Great. I don't have a problem on my setup, but I know plenty of other players who'd have issues and thought I'd mention this for completeness. On the bright side, developer HAS been working on some of these features, so it's not all bad.
I love this game! It's so much fun once you have a controller. Amazon has generic usb xbox 360 controllers for like $10. I wish there were more levels, rewards, and secrets to unlock. Hope they continue making them. Play this fun and quick game.
fun time killer
I am giving this a tentative recommendation, which I hope to be a complete one as it updates. I played the freeware version and fell deeply in love with the sprite animation, and location, but abhorred the controls. The controls thankfully were something I got used to but having the option to map out own controls would be a great option.
All in all, for being early access, I think it works pretty well and has a great deal of promise. I , personally have yet to encounter any game breaking bugs and I look forward to future updates.
The Control Scheme is your greatest Foe!
The Short Version
The game has a solid kernel but you will spend more time fighting the controle scheme than you will fighting the enemies.
The Long Version
So, I remember this game from back when it was on The Daily Click years ago. It frustraghted me soooo much. Because I could see there was a good game in here. But any enjoyment I might have had was totally hobbled by the terrible controls. Though the author seemes to have fixed the issue with moving up stairs and throwing away your weapon just to lock a door the game is still plaigued by design issues with it's control scheme.
For instance, in order to pick up a weapon or item for the first time, you first have to investigate it. Now, this is not a case of, you press the investigate button and then you can press the pick up button to pick it up. No, you press the investigate key a second time to pick it up for the first time. But every time after that you have to press the dedicated pick up button to pick it up. The issue with this is, my muschle memory now assosiates the investigate command as a general interact command. So when I go to pick it up again, my instincts tell me to press the button I pressed the first time I picked it up. So when I hit that button and nothing happens it creates disonence. I have to stop and think, what is the button to pick things up again?! This leads to death. Having to fight the controls breaks your flow, breaks your imersion and the subsequint deaths really kills your enjoyment. I feel cheated.
The sence that the investigate key seems like it should be the general interaction key is increased with the fact that you use it to lift and lock the doors. By the time you get to the point where you have to start resetting the doors you can sometimes remmeber that the dedicated pick up key is used to pick things up. The door reset symbol pops up and you are enclined to use the pick-up command... but you have to use the investigate command instead.
The Weapons Break?!
Ok, I haven't actually survived long enough to have a weapon break on me. Because the controles keep killing me. But come on man. I can't even have a weapon that lasts 10 bloody minutes?!
Recommendations
I think that you should ether make the investigate button a general interact button, or just have it investigate and do nothing else. Because having the investigate button pick things up the first time is just confusing. These are not insurmountabel problems, but they are fundemental ones. I'm fearly confindent I'm not the only one who has these issues and I think you could garner a much wider audience if you made the controles more intuitive.
A must have for any Zombie Movie fan.. Soooo much fun!
Probably one of the worst games Ive ever played.
This is an excellent game. A love letter to the old Romero movies.
The first time you play you'll be trying to figure out how to survive using whatever you can lay your hands on... And you'll probably die horribly.
Eventually, as you get good at the game and unlock all the items it becomes a different kind of game where you aggressively murder all the zombies you can.
At one point, well before the game came to steam, I threw together a 45 second trailer for the game, which would give you a very solid idea of what the game is like : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfZc1U7bzHQ
A very well rounded action game that gets better as you learn your way around.
Your first playthrough will be confusing. You will die quickly. But you will pick up the game again and again and after numerous tries master the house and feel the joy of surviving the 7 minute mode...only to find out you have to beat 12 minutes now.
This is an "old school" game in the sense that it is unforgiving, difficult, but very fun to master. You will die because of one slip up, you will die because of unlucky timing, you will die because you lost focus. But you will also feel great after executing an awesome combo, you will feel great after setting fire to dozen zombies at once, you will feel great when you get an S-rank on all levels.
If the video sound remotely fun to you, then this is definitely worth checking out!
EEHH!!!!
Survivor: The Living Dead's promied additional content is really going to be the making of it. The groundwork is solid; at the moment, it's an enjoyable zombie defense title based on Romero's seminal 1968 movie in which you repel the undead menace from a two storey house by way of various weapons and traps. You begin in the reasonable 7 minute mode before heading into bumpier territory with th 12 and 14 minute challenges, unlocking multiple bonus weapons and gameplay variables as you go.
The controls need tweaking. The mapping is fine and feels comfortable but command areas for certain item pick-ups and especially the stairs are a little too small to comfortably use in the middle of a zombie panic. Dev also needs a fullscreen fix as soon as possible as the text is a nightmare to read in the tiny windowed mode that Survivor boots in.
Easy thumbs up at this stage though. Plenty of potential.

Pay no attention to my short time on this version, as I have played the freeware version some time ago.
This is an early access game that is in development, as such, it's purpose is to receive feedback from the community for bugtesting as well as overall design feedback. The game as it is now, is largely unchanged from the freeware version I played before so it is familiar. It is confirmed that there will be new levels coming, and from the Twitter, it looks like enemies and weapons too.
The game is more of a strategy/tower defense game with a twist. When the game starts it is up to you to fortify, find/create weapons and use some crafty tactics to use the environment as another weapon.
Again, I can't stress to people enough that this is still in development, but I am confident that through early access and feedback the game will be shaped to a much better final product. Give it a shot, once you get the hang of the game it is quite addictive with its additional modes and reward system, which is actually quite extensive.
Well aware of the ridiculously low amount of hours listed, but I assure anyone reading that I've actually been playing the game a fair bit ever since its original freeware release - I'd say the time I've spent is honestly closer to somewhere between 8 and 12.
Anyway! I do feel I can give the game a fair shake at this point.
Despite what you may expect from the screenshots, "Survivor: The Living Dead" honestly feels more like an action-puzzle game that'll require some exploration and quick work on your part in order to do well in. You see, you start in a position of distinct disadvantage - very few weapons are ready-to-use at the very start of the run (or in the game in general, but we'll get to that) and you need to - very quickly - start searching the area for anything that can be used as a weapon, for anything that can be put together to make weapons, or a means to create environmental hazards for later use - as the stuff you can easily reach immediately is nowhere near enough to take you to even the 7-minute run, let alone the longer game modes that come after it.
Even if you know exactly what to do in order to make every weapon in the area available and usable, you're not out of the woods, and that's when you'll need to find ways to use what you've got to the best of your ability, as you're generally going to have JUST enough weaponry in total to take you to the end of the time limit - miss a few too many shots, use a weapon that's obviously meant to eliminate a crowd of zombies on LESS than a crowd of zombies, inappropriately use your barricades to give you the few decent chances to keep crowds together FOR those crowd weapons, don't act fast enough to get the weapons outside INSIDE, or any get any number of steps of the overall puzzle wrong, and you're simply going to run out of options, and most likely quickly die.
To keep the game fresh, there's a significant number of unlocks that will simultaneously give you far more tools to play around with, and which will honestly be outright NECESSARY to complete the longer game modes as you won't have enough overall ammo to beat the game otherwise - one thing I definitely like about the game is that if you know what you're doing, you'll always have what you need - but only just! - to win, keeping the game tense no matter how much you've unlocked (or if you wanna just run roughshod all over the easier time limits, that's fun too ;3 ).
There ARE a few flaws in the game, of course. Due to how the infection mechanic works, getting bitten even once is a huge, irreversible handicap that can make a game basically unwinnable if it happens too early (though one can argue that it's just another way of making sure you never allow the zombies to get past your guard in the first place), and some weapons can be a bit inconsistent in their damage output, leading to an unexpected bite when what you thought was a sure kill, well... isn't, and typically at the worst possible time, in strict accordance to Murphy's Law. And you might want to be careful about throwing all your weapons into a big pile; it's not the most pleasant experience trying to get a single specific weapon you need out of the pile once you hear the telltale crash of a door coming down.
Additionally, I must note that the game hasn't currently changed a whole lot since its original release, and while there's a lot to do on the maps you're given and the house is very well-designed to keep you on your toes, the fact is undeniable that there are only two maps, of which one you'll only see in the Story Mode. This said, it HAS been said that there will be new levels, so this may cease to be an issue in the future. Additionally, the game was originally made in 2010 by a small team, and kick me in the nuts if it doesn't LOOK it, with dated visuals and a UI that's just ugly to look at. However, being fair to the game, everything you need to know is perfectly identifiable with the graphical style, and I've certainly seen a hell of a lot worse, so unless you're a graphics wh... graphics service provider, there shouldn't be a huge problem here.
Overall, I think there's a lot to like about the game and I've got confidence that the planned new additions will ensure it's worth the reasonable buy-in price. If you can skip the cost of a couple of burgers or something, you just might have fun with it too. =3
