Quick concepts:
The drawings below symbolise how i wold like the characters to be portrayed, The top part of the drawing shows an example on how i would like the main character to be, and the line symbolises the bottom of the screen, and on the bottom part of the drawing symbolises how i would like the zombies to be, having the skinny blue shirted ones o be normally easy to kill, and the fat blue shirted ones to be harder to kill e.g. 3 shots to kill, there will also be skinny purple shirted zombies that will be the faster paced zombies and have the same health capacity as the fat blue shirted zombies. the Zombies in the circle show how i would like the zombies to move as i didn't just want to have them just sliding down the screen. so there will be a walking animation, nothing to fancy but a simple left foot to right foot continuos frame repeat and the big X in the very bottom symbolises the character's placement.
My original reference to help give me this idea was a game called "The Last Stand". "The Last Stand' is a survival like side scroller game that gradually gets very very hard as the game progresses. The aim of the game is to survive as long as possible with only a small barricade to protect you, throughout the game you can buy ammo, new guns, health packs, repairs for you barricade and if i'm not mistaken turrets as well.
