Him off of Gibbage.

Well, I'm writing a new game, and picking up XNA along the way. It's all very exciting. I'm also on the lookout for someone to hand a fairly-miserable sum of money to in a (small) envelope after The All New Gibbage.co.uk failed, a bit.

But that's not why I'm here. I'm here to spam the boards with a link to a short film I made called "How To Survive a Zombie Apocalypse" (http://digg.com/videos/comedy/URGENT_How_To_Survive_a_Zombie_Apocalypse).

See what I did, there? I sent you via the Digg. That was clever of me. If you feel like clicking the Digg button along the way, well that'd be very much appreciated.

Not Indie game related in any way, despite my clever attempts to disguise it as such at the start of the thread. Sorry. But everyone loves a zombie.

Please do have a click and let me know what you think.

Ta,

Dan

ps I chose the grumpy icon for this, as it looks most like a zombie. Hope that's ok.

"Remember. Don't double cross anyone." LOL - That's true. How come Karma is inescapable in Zombie movies?

Alright, now I finally know what to do. And I thought you were supposed to dress them up in funny costumes (http://www.arcadetown.com/pimpmyzombie/game.asp).

So, how much of this video is based off of "Zombie Survival Handbook (http://www.amazon.com/Zombie-Survival-Guide-Complete-Protection/dp/1400049628/ref=pd_bbs_2/102-1199796-4810508?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1192823470&sr=8-2)" ?

Not much, really. If you've read that book, you'll know it's actually very very very boring, stuffy and long-winded and this film's more of a movie cliche pastiche.

World War Z, by the same author, is much much better, and genuinely one of the most impressive books I've read in a looong time.

Lots of footage shot at one of the zombie walks too I see, good idea there.

Read that books a couple of years ago, pretty funny. Crowbar is useful as you can get it in the eye sockets.

Good stuff. :) Some other interesting videos on that site as well. Disorderly Puppets?

You've got to kill the bite victim. If anyone asks where he went, tell them he said. "He hated you all" and ran off.

LoL Zombie outbreaks are always funnier when they're across the pond.
