Project Zomboid pre-alpha demo released
by Alice O'Connor, Jun 20, 2011 8:30am PDTWhile zombie fans have yet to receive the ultra-realistic, hardcore, brutal undead apocalypse survival game many of them so loudly crave, indie offering Project Zomboid is shaping up to be something close. You can give it a whirl thanks to a newly-release PC demo, available for download here at Shacknews.
Developed by Indie Stone Studios, Project Zomboid is a sandbox zombie survival RPG that'll let you live out your last days in a zombie-infested world. As well as (obviously) killing zombies, you'll be looting, crafting and barricading to eke out a little more life. However, if the zombies don't get you, other survivors might.
Indie Stone hadn't intended to release a Zomboid demo quite so early, hence it being clearly labelled a "pre-alpha tech demo." However, after the emergence of a pirated version which sucked up the indie team's valuable resources, they went ahead and launched a non-immoral way for people to try the game for free.
You can pre-order Project Zomboid now for £5 (about $8). This'll get you access to a playable alpha version which will be updated as development progresses, like Minecraft and several other indies.

Zombie fans have yet to receive the undead sandbox survival RPG they've been so loudly craving, but indie offering Project Zomboid is shaping up nicely. Give it a go with a newly-released pre-alpha demo.
