Plain-text copy: FACTSHEET.txt
Deadly Dispatch is a puzzle game in a genre we had to invent: tactical zombie elimination. Build a multi-stage bomb, drop it on a zombie-infested city, and try not to hit the humans.
Twelve materials across three stages give 84 possible bombs — cores that blast, crush or burn, second stages that scatter, split, ricochet or wait, payloads that finish the job. Delivery is a guided reticle or an unguided plane run and a RELEASE NOW button. Then physics takes over: fuel stations chain, barrels cook off, buildings pancake. The city isn't empty, though. Survivors hold the last wall standing, and power is the real puzzle: too little bomb and the horde walks away, too much and you flatten the people you came to save. Three stars means you got the balance exactly right.
Thirteen years ago I had an idea for a game. After several failed attempts — mostly because I never clicked with Unity, and never quite made it through the Cocos2D book I bought — the idea ended up sitting on the shelf.
Every few years I'd check the App Store, or do a quick search, to see whether someone else had made it. I just really wanted to play it.
This year a prototype finally hit the right spot, one thing led to another, and now it's a finished game.
