I'm always getting these errors... If I try to run the server:

Code: Select all

Error: states/gameState.lua:150: attempt to index global 'client' (a nil value)
stack traceback:
	states/gameState.lua:150: in function 'sendToServer'

	main.lua:35: in function 'update'
	[string "boot.lua"]:421: in function <[string "boot.lua"]:387>
	[C]: in function 'xpcall'

If I try to run the client:

Code: Select all

Error: states/gameState.lua:111: attempt to call a nil value
stack traceback:
	states/gameState.lua:111: in function 'callback'
	libs/LUBE.lua:319: in function 'update'

Maybe it's a case thing? Cause, you know, Linux is case sensitive.

Anyway, I managed to try it using LoveDebug (the game continues instead of crashing), and the graphics are looking good. I like the Mangueira zombies. A suggestion: make the player walk slower when shooting, that'll force him to choose between fighting and running.

Nah, not that. It ran fine on my Windows (which is also case sensitive).
I only tried the client, though.

I do agree that it's too easy. I didn't even lose a life and had been playing for well over 5 minutes. And I'm not even a good gamer.
In any case, it is pretty good. I found no mechanical issues. I too like the graphics.

Thank you for your comment! What do you mean by Mangueira zombies? Also, I will implement the suggested feature, thanks!

I have no idea what could have caused those crashed
Hmmm, since even in client, it still runs the server, maybe try to allow access via your firewall or something?

Thank you for your comments! What can I do to make it harder?

Gun upgrading/leveling? Stronger/smarter zombies?
Just some Ideas.
I'm not extremely creative, though...

Thank you! I was planning those but now I got proof that they are desired, thank you once again!

the new zombie is OP. :V

Also there's no game over screen or anything like that.

Well, it's not meant to spawn in very big amounts. It does for now, just for testing purposes.

And I'll add a Game Over screen in the next update!
