I saw you used text files for stage developing - I encourage you to use Paint to do the same thing - create image 16x15 pixels, paint walls with one color, enemies and stuff with other colors and then in-game scan every pixel of that image to build stage. It might look the same as text file, but it is much easier to edit the stage :)"},{"author_name":"andreyin","author_uid":"15858","time":"Aug 26, 2013 @ 6:31pm","epoch":1377541560,"text":"Couldn't get it to run, game closes itself when I try to open it..

I have exactly the same system as you (win8 x64) and it runs fine. Please make sure you have got the file &quot;Stage0.txt&quot; in the same directory as the exe.

For the same reaspn, I used text files. But you can edit them quite well when you activate the &quot;overwrite&quot;-mode.

Walk with WASD or with the arrow keys. When the red bar on the top of the screen fills, you will shoot one time and the bar will slowly (10 seconds) fill up again.\r\nTo kill a zombie, you have to hit him one time. Tanks (appear in level 2) are more difficult to kill: they take 2 shots.\r\nBut you can die as well: as soon as a zombie intersects you, you will loose 5 hearts per second. If your last heart is gone, you will die of course. Tanks aren't that dangerous. You can intersect in them without loosing health. But tanks are like you and will emit a bullet every ten seconds.\r\nIf one hits you, you will loose 5 hearts.\r\n\r\nThe game uses MonoGame for rendering (so it is written in C# and you will need the .NET-framework). The graphics are created with inkscape or (the ones, that look bad) with paint:) For inkscape, I used the amazing tutorials from http:\/\/2dgameartforprogrammers.blogspot.de\/.
