Con Artist Games » Blog Archive » The Last Stand: Union City – Alpha 0.85 /* */


Taking it to the streets. Yes, your hero has been let out of the apartment. Not much new here, just the ability to move in and out and between buildings as well as a few bug fixes. Only two buildings are accessible at the moment. There is some interesting new stuff under the hood though, but I don’t have time to explain right now though, will dig into that next week.



Controls (because people asked for them):


A,D – Left / Right
W - Jump
S - Crouch
R – Reload
F – Flashlight
E – Activate
Tab, B, I – Open inventory
C – Open Character sheet



New Feedback / Bug Report Forms!

Use the links at the bottom of the game page for your feedbacking and bug reporting needs. It was just getting too hard to track stuff and deal with the volume of reports coming through the comments. So hit them up in future to make sure I hear about that flipping torso for the 5,000,000th time!

    Wow Con, You’ve done it plain and no imitations…. Lol this time when i played it my sister saw me and she liked it! Hahahaha!

  • http://armorgames.com/user/Dannydaninja DannyDaNinja

    Great Alpha Con!

    When i was playing this alpha the game froze and, basically my character keep on switching clothes and guns really really fast, like the same speed it is using cs4 with the keyframes if you just let them play though like an animation with out setting the speed and adding that STOP code thing. So yeah that i’ld let you know. Also this was in the last alpha, I took screenshots of the last alpha’s glitch like this if you would like to see them?

  • commando101s

    Once again Con you continue to impress. also are you aware of when takeing off and on cloths somtimes the item remains on the character?

  • Butfacemonster

    Awesome can’t wait for it to come out.
    This reminds of fallout 3, a sheltered guy goes goes into the apocalypse alone. Also theres the bottlecaps reference.
    First post WOO :P

  • http://rp-pl.net/index.php R0mA

    Yay.

  • melo

    OMG, its here. Awesome. Thank you very much for the new alpha!

  • Diego

    Excellent!

    also, 1st comment, thanks for the alpha con! : D

  • Marcus Vince

    I have 2 bugs to report right away, but now i need to go out and buy some foods at the market… see you Con….

  • Pwnisher

    First!!!!
    new alfa! *jumps for joy*

  • Diego

    The only bug I noticed was when I was outside the second building, I had the Bat equipped, then when I entered I had the M16 (as my second weapon) out and I had to change weapons back ad forth before I could use it.

    No biggie though, great art, the door to that leads outside in the first building could be a bit bigger I guess, otherwise, great game : )

    Use the bug report form guys…
    - Con

  • Flux

    very very awesome. though i found a bug. what happened to me is that i entered the room and it showed my m16a2, but it still had the ammo of the m1911. also it just randomly picks up stuff while i dun want to :/ VERY nice alpha though.

  • erick monsa

    cool thnx for the new alpha

  • Thomethom Bull

    I found a weapon called None. On my back it look like my other weapon, the XM8. I can’t wield it, but when i use my normal weapon, it says i have no ammo. I had a lot of ammo for it before i wielded None. I can’t shoot my normal weapon!

  • Xero

    just one word fits it…. AWESOME

  • dusty

    Very nice. Im really liking the adverts. Its great to finally be outside. Keep up the good work.

  • Rezzek

    It getting very close to prefect. I cant say well done or anything like that because i cant believe how much work you put into this.

  • http://www.myspace.com/Samizdatpromotions samizdat

    Amazing, can’t wait for the full version!

  • vlad

    So the whole game will be just one , really long street?

  • D3AD WillaX

    nice job con amazing thank you for all this!!. oh i got the first comment!!:)

  • vanjapro

    cool alpha!
    :)
    first comment… lol

    Nope.
    - Con

  • knights1224

    two things:
    1. FIRST COMMENT WOOT! (i could care less)
    2. this game is turning out to be really awesome, I know this is the alpha version only but it’s really awesome, I think I might spend my free time playing this, i can’t wait to play the next version alpha, and (if there is gonna be one) the beta, the real game is gonna be 10 times more awesome then The Last Stand and The Last Stand 2.

  • J

    Exceptional work. I love how u finnaly expanded to the outside being able to enter buildings and walk in the street turned out realy well. ALso good luck at the showdown.

  • kuronosan

    Some things I have found so far:

    1) Gun reloading can still be interrupted, if there’s no fix planned (or possible) for this just ignore.

    2) Sometimes the boxes in the storage room cannot be searched, for some reason walking away and going back allows you to search them.

    3) You can still delete equipped clothing and it will remain equipped.

    Fixes I am thrilled about:

    1) You can’t switch clothing anymore while throwing out or equipping new ones.

    2) Most other bugs from last report are fixed!

    Great job so far Con. I’ll keep looking.

  • Cj Walker

    Great alpha man, cant wait for the game

  • http://www.armorgames.com coolLane

    The only thing i noticed was the 2 pistols didnt make a sound

  • http://kacboy.webs.com/ kacboy

    Awesome! Super nice graphics everywhere.
    Glitches:
    -Some zombies are pre-killed
    -Invisible forcefields where a zombie was killed.
    -Lots of moments where my clicks don’t work.

  • http://kacboy.webs.com/ kacboy

    PS I love the ads. Can’t wait to see mine!

  • LOVED IT

    Only bugs I found was after killing a Zombie sometimes my character couldnt go forward. OTHER THAT THAT GREAT GAME!

  • jackallj

    mayby add the catagorie with the weapons? so you can spent your points good? so people know were to spend points if they have an M16 or something…

  • jayheych

    did about an hour of gameplay and in terms of new bugs theres hardly any.

    but the box on the left of the storeroom has targeting difficulties, sometimes i have to jump on it to search it.

    and when i play and delete clothing it doesnt equp it at all so i’m guessing you fixed that one con

    PS thanks for the fedora lol now i can kill zombies in style

    PPS when can we expect to see the selected smg’s in use?

    ah larv youuu

  • jayheych

    the ammo glitch happens when you reload just before you enter a door. it like swaps the ammo around with your two weapons so it had the bullet amount for the sledge. i only posted this on here because i dont know how to use the bug report form sorry

  • Bernardo

    ah mulequeeee!!!!

  • ehw

    Yay! new alpha! you rock con!
    anyway I found one glitch so far, though I may post more;
    if you stand to close to those searchable boxes where you find the m16a2, you can’t search them. back away and you can.
    my only complaint is that I can’t find my favorite pair of camo pants!

  • Mr. A

    YES its here now its time to kill zombies or zacks what ever you call it but im sticking with zombies

    nice work con

    also it kinda scares me that you released it on the last day of school(where i am)

  • ehw

    Im sorry I didn’t notice the report a bug link.
    wait what is this commenting space for, then?
    please don’t flame me…

  • Nathan

    pretty sweet

  • chris

    epic! I found a suit and tie ,sunglasses and black jeans ,i looked by a secret agent with my pistol

  • Carson

    Not sure if it’s been said, but when you enter the dark room, after killing some zombies, move your mouse over the box. Make sure you can’t press “e” and access it. Walk towards it while still being having your mouse over it, and the outline should turn gray to white, but when you press “e” you can’t open it.

  • midget2

    dam.. a lot of people think they got the first comment. loved the alpha con thanks! i sent ermm like 5 bug reports.

  • Max

    Great job! The only thing i didn’t like was that you always switched to your secondary weapon everytime you changed rooms.

  • bubbleboy

    hey can you make the bandana a different class than the glasses because i think its cool to wear a bandana and sunglasses while i kick zombie but

  • http://www.iceage.wikia.com/wiki/User:ScratteLover2 ScratteLover2

    Like knights1224 said, this is alot better than The Last Stand and The Last Stand 2. Are you planning on putting out The Last Stand 3 Alpha09 and The Last Stand 4?

  • Kiwi

    freaking awesome! but bukkake sushi? wtf…

  • Kiwi

    oh, and if youve got any time left to answer these (probably not, just ignore this)?

    What do the symbols for the little book or something and the clock mean?

    are fellow survivors coming soon or is it still far away?

  • keatosimo

    FIally, advertisments! but one question: will i get to see mr. doom-profit zombie in any of the alphas?

  • arosd

    Hey Con, I had aglitch where a zombie got stuck in the box and I couldn’t shoot him. Just to let you know.

  • Beau

    I gotta say, the artwork blends in with the alley perfectly

  • Deviruchi

    awesome and very well done! I was wondering whether there will be a run button or obstacles in the streets like old rusting cars or something like that? also, the take all button shouldn’t be the a button, use the q button instead, because when you accidentally press that button enough times while running, you might realise your character couldn’t pick up the item because you are carrying too much weight. Great beta!

  • Mike

    God can’t believe it you reached alpha 0.85…and the next week or maybe 2 you release the full game…the only glitch i found was the thing that i couldn’t search some things until you move a little…anyway outstanding game…maybe the best flash games maker in the business….how much time you stood making this game until now?

  • kevin

    Is the character supposed to limp?

  • Pizzarollz

    Awesome I had alot of fun with this one. I like how there are some of the adverts on the walls, and I hope to see “Samurai Dinosaurs” In the real game.

  • Pizzarollz

    Oh i found something funny ingame. crouch and walk slowly backwards. Its the Jerk.

  • http://www.caseyfallen.com Slim

    Got something new to report. But not sure how new. I don’t have the time to read through the comments to see if it was already reported.

    1. I noticed that the M911 pistol has no sound when shooting it.
    2. The walking sticks a little bit. (character keeps walking a little after button is not pressed)
    3. The doors are a little fussy to get through. (you have to put the cursor right on the dot to get them to open)
    Again, sorry if I’m repeating.

    This looks amazing Con. Thanks again for letting us be part of its creation. I realize how much work it is to make this happen for us. VERY appreciated.
    If it’s not too late, I was wondering if we could get a banner on a wall with our bands new album that is coming this Winter. (Casey Fallen, Atmospheric Disturbances) I thought that our new album name would be a little ironic on the wall. : ) I would give you free rights to the music for use in exchange. We have the ability to bring the music file size down to very low bits (so to not slow the game) while still sounding great for a game. (check it out at caseyfallen.com) We get terrestrial F.M. radio airplay on several main stream stations in the states.

  • d3wd

    very nice alpha, con.
    ;D

    ~d3wd

  • Jim

    Very nice con, I noticed some graffiti; and i was wondering if your taking any artwork from your fans.

    If you’ve got a tag or a graf piece, I’d be happy to look at putting it in. Just as long as you’re ok with me using it and distributing it all over.
    - Con

  • shift4101

    Hey there Con. Nice alpha, I laughed at the Bukkake sushi poster :/

    Anyways, will switching guns be instant, or will some guns switch faster? They did this in Call of Duty so some people might actually use pistols. Just asking.

  • mic777

    Nice work con
    a few things

    1.Are there SMG’s in this game?
    2. Still can’t find AK-74U!
    could you make it a little easier to find?
    3. Did you take photographs for the background? it looks very good!

  • Ricardo

    I’ve been wandering this since the first time I saw it: will there be any use for the ciggarettes? I mean, will the player have an option to have a very nasty habbit?

  • Mike

    Overall great alpha. Maybe next alpha you can make a list of the avalible weapons that are able to be found in the game
    I found a couple minor problems though.
    When you press A/D and use the push button the screen shifts slightly
    Also when you walk through a door and switch your weapon at the same time it shows the previous weapon’s ammo “stats”

  • Bib

    Nice

  • Noah

    I think I found a glitch whenever I equip a weapon then go in a house my other weapon is equipped??? can you try to fix that and get a trench knife in the game

  • Noah

    and also I know you don’t like suggestions unless you ask for them but can you make it where you can find cars or motorcycles and a online play

  • Gabe

    Ha love all the people who say ‘FIRST COMMENT!! :D ’ When they’re around #40.

  • Jonny B

    I miss the star icon next to rare items :’(

  • John_234

    Great stuff. Found a single bug, submitted form. But I also have a question. I know zombie spawn is affected by player traits, such as level and all that, but rooms will affect how many zombies there are, right?

    So an open street wouldn’t have the same number of zeds as a bathroom, or some random, isolated farmhouse won’t be filled with the undead, right?

    By the way, is it too late in the game to change the gun graphics? I noted that the 1911 pistol’s hammer isn’t cocked in the game nor the inventory (meaning it couldn’t fire). Same thing for Beretta 92. It’s a really minor issue, but it’s really tiring, and just weird never seeing a cocked hammer in a video game (Rainbow Six aside…)

  • http://Cheese Zach

    awesome loved it cant wait for the game

  • TaL

    If at all possible, when you finish this, please release it on a weekend. Don’t force me to take a day off work.

  • Questica

    HEY I like this one but Y is there zombies in rooms that dont get up??? zombies dont fight each other and um in that dark room you have to jump on top of the boxes to search them

  • http://www.iceage.wikia.com/wiki/User:ScratteLover2 ScratteLover2

    This is a messing around question, this actually for playing the game. How dose your person sleep in The Last Stand 3: Union City Alpha085? Can you please respond so others can know, this isn’t just for me, it’s 99% for other people, and only 1% for me.

  • 56er

    Very nice! Found a bug were weapons change when changing locations was mest up. I also had an idea, why arent you giving chars with a certain survival level the abilitty to see if zombies lying on the ground are dead or just waiting for victims, that would help players preventing from dangerous surprises and also the useless loss of ammo.

  • zombkilla2134

    i wonder if you the real game zombies can grab you and you have to mash a button to break free. i also wonder if there would be easter eggs and like, you know those RE4 buttons where, if a certain enemy or a sequence where you can press a button then dodge the enemy or something. Will there be any like that, Con?

  • zombkilla2134

    Very nice alpha anyway, forgot to include that in last comment

  • Joel

    LOL the first 20 people are going YAY FIRST COMMENT!!! Very nice, Con. I wonder if Flurps will appear as a takeable item :D
    The whole atmosphere is pretty nice, can already imagine zombies rushing at me down that street. Could be a weeny bit darker though. The posters, dustbins, overall GRIME, all scream apocalypse to me. Verrry nice.

  • Aias

    The game looks great… the posters make it look really realistic and stuff. But having all that garbage and posters on the wall make it seem like its a pretty bad area of the city. Did you want to make it like that? I think it would be cool if depending on what area your in, or how long youve been playing the amount of stuff on the walls and ground increases/decreases

  • http://kacboy.webs.com/ kacboy

    Oh yeah.
    Con, what is the ~` key for? It brings down some sort of chat box with the street and date. Is there going to be a mini map there or something?

    It’s the dev console, just for typing commands. Listed a bunch of them in one of the previous Alpha posts.
    - Con

  • JoJe

    The thing that showed the bullets was like the assualt rifle except for i was using the G17 pistol and when i reload it gives me the ammo i used.

  • Flameonfish

    Alpha’s are looking better every update Con! I felt like there was less to search in this version but maybe i just was so used to the three rooms it doesnt feel normal hahahaha!

    Anyway great job and thanks for the fedora!

  • Era

    I would just like to say that I find it quite funny how many people put “first!!’ (excluding the actual first comment) and how many people still post bugs and issues, showing that they didn’t read the instructions…again. Anywho, great beta, cannot wait for the full game. Keep up the great work.

  • JoJe

    If you click on one box and then hit the exit and click another one on the other end of the room real quick it will open it up even if your outta range

  • Galex44

    *Gasps* you…. unvelieveable ——-! you actually did it!!!! good job keep it up :P

  • http://www.myspace.com/halomaste70 EmoPanda1231

    the new alpha is pretty sweet con! but is there a little form thingy where we could suggest ideas to you? cause i think it’ll be good if we could find clothes to dress up as SWAT or The Army,Ya know?

  • darkviolator

    So are you planning to put in smgs in the next alpha?

  • vanjapro

    when i enter any kind of building(door, whatewer) with my primary weapon, it automaticaly pulls out my sidearm!
    i dont know if this could be called bug, but i just wanted to inform you of this if you did not know

  • koko

    Hi Con.If u read this then make the new alpha soon. There’s a bug with the +5 Fitness, +5 handgun and +5 long barel things. I get 105 from which 90 are from these. You must ndo something for this. Bye.

  • http://www.iceage.wikia.com/wiki/User:ScratteLover2 ScratteLover2

    Why didn’t you respond to my last post? I just wanted to know if we can sleep somehow in the new alpha.

    Yeah, I’m out of town…no no you can’t.
    -Con

  • Elevator Doors

    Damn this one was awesome. Gave me a nostalgic feeling of old school side scrollers on my sega. Definite improvement from the last and hope to see the next level…beta,gamma, or whatever it is.

  • Nate

    Nice to get a little more of game play but, damn. it doesnt really seem like your fighting zombies…more like people with blood on them. I hope when the full version launches, the zombie won’t throw arms, punch or kick….

  • Bryan

    Did you turn the lucky finds of, because i cant find any objects with stars anymore…

  • dude

    can you tell me what names there are?

  • ehw

    ak-74u doesn’t use any of the really common ammo types, nor any mentioned in this game.
    or am I thinking of the smg ak?

  • Bloodlink

    I found a weapon called “none”. Suprisingly, it doesn’t do anything.

  • Slappythehobo

    I just saw a poster for “Bukkake Sushi” inside of one of the buildings. You do know what a “Bukkake” is right…?

    No I am the worlds most sheltered 30 year old man. Tell me pl0x. I’ve been debating putting that one in. Didn’t think you guys would be so offended by it.

  • kenny123890

    damnit the p60 doesnt use .45 or 9mm can u add the p90 it would make some of us happy

  • Ryan

    i don’t like how even if you max out on strength and blades, the kitchen knife still isn’t as good as the baseball bat. It seems like the blades are too weak

  • Ghost251

    This is awsome but I hate it how the only two kinda of pants, I can find Black Pants, and Cargo Pants.

  • win

    i maxed out my searching skill and im finding tons of rare (uncommon at least) weapons like ak47, fal, m4a1 (not m16a2), xm8, and scar-h :D

    finally its starting to get more fun (no surprise, because there are more guns :p)

  • cabananza

    You DO know about the glitch of where you click on something to search more than once and different items come up everytime, right?

    Yep, game is still in testing mode, just to test how the random search stuff goes. Will turn it off once there’s more places to search.
    - Con

  • CadeMan

    you never fail to impress con keep em coming and you are sure to win a trophy for this game

  • JoJe

    You should work on the sound for the weapons now cause it’s kinda boring to just see the flash and watch them die. Also having the zombies make sounds would be cool like the moan but when they see you the have a horrid scream and charge at you.

  • JoJe

    Also get a rifle and a shotgun in there and do the same poll thing cause that works btw thanks for using my polling idea :D

  • JoJe

    Also another issue is that when i enter a room it switchs my weapon for some reason and sometimes reverses the torso

  • JoJe

    Also how about you make it so you can search a zombies body and give them some weapons. Also allow for the character to wear armor and actually let it have an armor value.

  • Comander Bacon

    I notice how at the bottom there is the inventory button and the charachter sheet button. What are the two others?

    ps-great progression on the game!

  • lowlaaa

    - the zombies still lag when climbing
    over the boxes
    - zombies freeze on top of the obstacle
    after they climb on top of it
    – bullets no longer do any headshot
    damage when they freeze on the box?
    obstacle
    - sometimes when i change rooms my guns
    automatically shift from one to the other
    e.g.M16A2 *change rooms* then its G17
    and then the G17 begins to use M16A2
    ammo
    - imo* zombies should be more responsive to
    the sounds of gunfire
    - zombies sometimes random spawn inside a
    box (not really inside, its more to the left of
    it. If i were looking at it head on. That may
    not make any sense but you might wanna
    check into the spawn points for the zombies
    - and the zombies don’t attack very
    realistically whats with the arm swinging
    they should jump on you, tackle you to the
    ground and then maybe you could have a
    button mash when that happens…you know
    It would make it more interesting
    and thats all i could find

    it looks really good btw. ctrls are good to works well good luck man

  • Marcus Vince

    Con… are you really sure that you like sketches from your beta testers… coz I’m going to distribute some of my art works of zombie models and cloths… so if your interested… just comment back! T.Y.

  • Marcus Vince

    Lol I’m not joking with it.. I’m a ”Fine Artist” *thats my course*

  • Cmpunk

    Con could you put the Chicago ted Graffiti in there

  • jack

    can i suggest that in the full game you make it so that after youve gotten everything out of a cuboard then it doesnt have all the items back when you search it next time?
    however i have never made a game so i wouldnt know how to myself……………..

  • Bib

    My first comment was a little short soo…

    The Game’s Nice Because
    *You can go outside
    *Different Building’s
    *The apartment looks different (just my imagination?)
    *When you run out of zombies to kill, you can just look for some funny ads

    I didn’t notice any glitches/bugs. It’s funny to see people posting them on the comments page when you clearly stated where to report in the post..*sighs* people these days.

    Keep up the good work. I know a lot of developers who would just leave it as is and call it a game, but I can tell you’re going above and beyond.

  • Jayy.

    Nothing seeces to amaze me Con. You are truly the best game artist in the world! The best that has ever been born.

  • Pyron Kim

    Hey this stuff is cool. Are there gonna be zombie dogs/armed zombies like in TLS 1 and 2?

    Callin from South Korea here, and me n all my friends are lookin forward to it.

    For posters I was going to suggest “Sir Loin Bacon canned meat&goods” but its too late now I guess…

    Jeez, you act a bit reclusive-no offence.

  • kyyo

    wow! i must say i am a big fan of the last stand games and in 3 games the whole idea of the game has chaned like in number 1 it was baraceds and now in the alpahs ts like full on zombie mayhem!!! :) great work keep it up!

  • Elevator Doors

    Jeez the amount of new people that come in. Do any of you read the rules he puts out. Especially you Joje. The human race baffles me now. Other than the flame still testing out for anymore bugs and ill report more if i see any. Great job.

  • http://none nate

    NICE!!! con this is the best alpha yet I really like the weapons I couldn’t find them last alpha. and I like the jackpot trashcan.

  • Ali Esat Ozbay

    Love the crowbar and fedora hats, ohw and con when the zombies dies wil they fade out or disapear at once like they do now?

  • Comander Bacon

    Yeah about the guy who asked you if you knew what ‘Bukkake’ meant (bukkake sushi poster) you should change it because the meaning not about noodles is… just wrong

  • JoeySTM

    I like the long black shirt, cargo pants, black shoes, gas mask, and military helmet combo.

  • Goblex

    Hey Con..
    Very very nice Alpha
    I hope I can see more..

  • Nate

    You should make new zombie attacks. punching and kicking zombies???

  • Keever

    So will junk ever have a use? Because I’m sure some people will want tissues or paper.

  • Smiling_Wolf

    … why do people keep posting their bugs here? Looks like people can’t read instructions…

    Anyway, love what you’re doing, man – looking forward to blowing up zombies and kitting up my personal army of survivors in the near future!

    Say, can you pick up stuff off the floor as well? The way you have it, items can only be found in containers, but will this be changed?

  • Joel

    why are you so grouchy?

  • kuronosan

    Hey Con, I sent in a bug about my inventory randomly switching… it turns out I’m a goof and clicked on the old alpha by mistake. Don’t waste your time searching for it!

    The only glitch I encountered is when you exit a room while firing a weapon, it deforms the character when you appear.

  • http://quantum-box.com/ HeavenlySword

    bukkake sushi???!?!

    Love the ads : ]

  • Kitka

    It`s very good game, i like it, but the colt 1911 have not sound. It is the best zombie game!

  • JPSVB

    Hi Con!

    First of all, God bless you for this new bug report and feedback system! If I get absolutely bored when I read in the posts people describing the same bugs and asking the same old questions again and again, then I can only imagine how you fell having to deal with that every day! The new alpha is excellent!

    I hope my questions do note bore you (too) much. :)

    1) With so much weapons and stuff in the game, will there be some kind of “personal locker” or “safe room” where we can keep weapons/items, etc. for later use?

    2) I know you’re planning UC to be very big, but will there be the possible to leave the city and wander into the wild? Maybe getting to escape from UC might be a possible ending, uh?

    3) Are you planning to insert puzzles in the game or it will be only survival and action? I mean: finding keys, restoring power in certain places, fixing machines, etc?

    Dude I really am impressd with what you’ve
    done. But just one thing that kinda bugged me. The thing is there was only one zombie outside. And there should be more then just a couple of zombies. Other then that I really look forward to The Last Stand:Union City.

  • Keaton

    We’re getting closer, I can smell the sweet smell of blood and gunpowder in the air. Yes I am very messed up in the head. All I know is it’s turning out to be a great game, besides the occasional glitch but that’s why it’s an alpha and not THE GAME. Keep working at it Con, and one small suggestion for clothes, people really like baggy jeans.

  • Noah.j.

    Hey I love you game series I used to play them, for hours and I was wondering if you need help thinking of some weapons or names for places I could help with that. p.s. is there going to be dogs in this one? and if so will there be different species like Labrador pit bull

  • Tobis

    great alpha, controls work nicely but one more thing,

    has reading the same comment over and over ever made you want to break down and cry?

  • That Weird Guy

    I just gotta say, everyone needs to try this: listen to Message in a Bottle by the Police while playing this game (any version, especially this one)! Listen and play at same time on loud volume and set up so music is like loud background music and gunfires are life- sounded! If this series will ever have a theme song, that one is it!

  • Oldskhool

    I don’t know if you’re going to read this, but I found a bug.

    No matter what you put down, I just keep on seeing bug reports on the comments page, you need to fix this because it’s such a pain and keeping me from enjoying reading the comments.
    Thought I would help you out and tell you this since you don’t know nothin and that you are the most ignorant person out there. Other than that, great comment page and I can’t wait until you for the next one. Last comment, whooooo!(for now)

  • Unholy spire

    Damn, Con I have to say that even for a alpha this still tops many indie-games. How come you don’t want to go big? like submit this stuff to indie game awards or strike a deal with apple and ipod app this game, ud make a fortune and get to sit around making any game u want without worrying about income?

    Yeah, that’s not how the industry works. Also, can you imagine trying to play this on a touch screen?
    - Con

  • Sebastian

    GREAT game Con. even the alpha is fun to play :p

    but yeah would be hard to play on an itouch/iphone however a PS3/360 version would be SUPER fun. but i don’t make games so i have no clue how hard it would be to make this into a PS3/360 game. but still i would pay cold hard cash for this game on ps3 :)

  • http://c Not DannyDaNinja

    Hey con i know ur name its zack you where picked on in highschool cause you where fat so get a life and your a bad game maker to caus wher you go outside you cant go know where else and i want you to take my work out of last stand union city cause i dont want my art up there call me at 911 im at the police station doing a girl thats horny

    Whoever you are fella, you’re not Danny, please just go away. This is your last warning before I contact API Digital, in Huntsville, Alabama and report you for abuse of your connection.

    I was hoping to see the SMGs in here since it came right after the poll. But I knew it was just to early. But when are we going to see the results? I sure would love to see what SMG was picked.

  • Keaton

    This is for those, like DannyDaNinja, who want to post comments that are just plain rude, un-neccessary, and spelled wrong several times, get a life. Seriously, we don’t want to read your mouth. Personally I don’t care what Con looks like, or even what his name is, it’s Con to me, show a little respect for the guy here considering this is his website and not yours. Go talk smack somewhere else. We all think this is a great game, you’re the only one standing out. Probably to get attention. Just go talk trash somewhere else OK.

    Just to be clear, it wasn’t Danny. It’s some bell-end who used his name.

  • http://www.iceage.wikia.com/wiki/User:ScratteLover2 ScratteLover2

    The alphas are awesome and going good so far, I hope the game itself is better than the alphas. Also, when dose the next alpha, 9, come out, I want to be able mall zombies down the ump and uzi, those were two of them most commons guns I used when I was sick of machines gun, just because they do the most damage.

  • FiveS373N

    Found a glitch/bug:
    My health would drop to 85/max health after going outside. I haven’t taken damage from the “zombies” but it would drop after changing rooms or going outside. Would be problematic at higher levels.

  • FiveS373N

    Also, the health glitch/bug would also drop to 85/max after leveling up.

  • Mike

    Hey con, its possible to get some cool clothes, like Fedora,Hoodie,Black helmet(not riot) Its possible?

  • bob

    nice job con your doing good on it i dont give a crap about the bugs keep workin on it

  • bob

    hey con will it be possible for ragdoll effects?

  • ChaosMan

    @ The Weird Guy

    no the theme music would be I Stand Alone by Godsmack

  • Raul88

    Nice alpha, the external city look so real, sincerly I prefered the graphics of Last Stand 2, like comics. Instead I like a lot the system and mechanicals of the game, it’s a pleasure kill zombies with the current combat system, great job!

  • McPhellin

    Nice to see the hardcore Last Stand fans getting ready for your new release. I have to say I appreciate Sin Mark as I look for adventure in flash games but I still love Last Stand and Warfare. I would comment on the game but I know nothing about Flash Games except how to play them and with the thousands of comments you get you probably don’t need constructive criticism. Looking forward to the release, good luck…

  • Unholy spire

    Thats true, touch screen would be hard as hell, but what about xbox market place or playstation network? as a download game?

  • Marcus Vince

    Look Man…. Please delete the Sushi thingy and just replace it…. before new peoples that test’s the game will see it and they will see you at the bad side….

    Yeah it seems I’m corrupting you guys. It’ll be out in the next version.
    - Con

  • Ewet8

    I love how much of a fuss people are making over the sushi thing, its a word, jesus, the context he accedentally used it in is funny. anyway, great alpha, I was waiting when I could get out of that clostrophobic apartment, thanks for the update and also…. about my Ad thing, will anything be ingame at all? Or should I just forget about it?

    ….it wasn’t an accident.

    All ads will get made, got my guys working on a bunch more at the moment.
    - Con

  • Frankfart

    I have the AK-47, FAL Battle Rifle, M4A1, Scar-H, XM8, Shotgun, PPM 9 Pistol, and the M9 Pistol. Am I missing any guns? (Besides the M16, G17, and M1911)

  • novacane

    Was wondering why the SCAR-H in the game has a 30 round mag? Shouldn’t it be 20 rounds? The dmg amount doesn’t make sense either, considering it fires way bigger ammo than the AK/M4/M16.

    Yeah, none of the weapon setups are final. Most are just cut and paste from the M4.
    - Con

  • Some Guy

    I don’t see why people are getting their knickers twisted over the bukkake sushi thing, I thought it was funny.

  • al2653

    it doesnt fire bigger ammo than the ak dude, 7.62 by 39 its probably not .308

    + it could be a 30 round mag just because there’s a 20 round mag in cod 6 doesnt mean all of em are

    Exactly.
    - Con

  • al2653

    typo .308 and 7.62 by 39 are the same

  • Chirpy

    Good aplha. How many alphas are there gone be

  • MrPinkyBoy

    I can’t wait for Union City to come out and thats the problem. I just got out of school and now its summer so it would be nice if you could finish up soon.

  • prettyboyfloyd

    its an awesome game cant wait till its done. I like how you put alot of guns even though its not the whole game. But some guns dont make shot noises.

  • Marcus Vince

    Lol, here’s a tip for the no.s 161 and 162…
    You don’t need to follow the mags of COD6 or some other games…. It’s how you think of it to be better in your way….. *or just use the wiki*

  • Joje

    There should be a difference in 7.62 ammo because there are 7.62-39 For the Ak and 7.62-51 for the FAL also please include the barret M107.

  • Smiling_Wolf

    You sure? The NATO round is 51mm long – 12mm longer than the AK round; that’s “bigger”, IMO. There’s more powder, which equals more k-energy/stopping power, which should make it a lot closer to the FAL in terms of damage.

    BTW, the SCAR-H in MW2(COD6) has a 30 round mag – that’s wrong. Check the manufacturer’s website and look at the specs – no 30 mag for this model of the weapon.

  • mic777

    MrPinkyBoy

    He Can’t just finish up! Why the hell do u think he is making alphas… for fun?!

    He needs to develop the game he can’t just finish because you want him to

    SHEESH Keep up the good work CON.

  • mic777

    By the way forgot to metion it the Alpha is good enough to be it’s own game!

  • Gabe

    The SCAR-L fires 5.56x45mm NATO and the SCAR-H fires 7.62x51mm NATO. The AK-47 fires 7.62x39mm M43 and the AK-74 fires 5.45x39mm. Infinty Ward fabricated lots of shit to make the games more enjoyable and balanced.

  • Allan(Discombobulated Productions)

    Hey con, I was just wondering why you don’t put ads in the alphas, I mean you might as well balance out the bandwidth with ads, nice alpha btw, can’t wait for it to be finished.

  • Mr. A

    hmmmm comment 143 shows that there is 1 man in the world hates con……….i feel sad for him.

    anysways great alpha :D

  • Xert

    To Novacane and Al2653

    Actually the Scar-H uses 2 types of ammo.
    30 Round Mag for the 7.62×39 (Same as AK)
    20 Round Mag for the 7.62×51

    Nothing wrong with the way Con did it. Also here are my sources

    http://world.guns.ru/assault/as70-e.htm (Scar H and L)

  • http://whatisuri Happy Hobo 2000

    Whats up with comment #143? that person is sure alone among us all…….. Anyways Con, the alpha was sexy, cant wait for the final product =)

  • Bloodlink

    When are you going to get explosives? Not to rush you or anything, but is there going to be a poll of some sort?

  • Amfleet

    Great fun. I feel just like Gordon Freeman wielding that crowbar.

  • What the hell is my name again

    haha people theres a bug form ☺ ☻ └v▀

  • Bloodlink

    Hey, you did put in a button mashing thing! I found in a glitch. First I walked toward a zombie stuck on a crate, pressed escape to get it moveing, and it grabbed me (by this time I was halfway across the room), and the “E” button was flashing above my head! After a while of pressing E it gave up and I could move again.

  • Smiling_Wolf

    Again, check the manufacturer’s website – FN does not produce a SCAR that fires the AK round.

    And I don’t trust world.guns.ru; the guy almost never cites his sources, and some of his articles are dated (like the SCAR and XM8 ones). Not very reliable IMO.

  • General

    Uh, i decided to put this in comments sense it doesn’t particularly seem to be a bug but rather something i noticed and was wondering about… will you be able to keep pressing E to gain exp from the trash can or keep reloading on purpose just to get up to a ridiculously high level? Just a suggestion, but you should not be able to sit there and be able to press the E or the R button all day.

  • Spaget

    i’m just wondering are you going to make an intro or are you just going do something like he gets knocked out forgetting most of his life and he slowly remembers his life?


    You’ll probably play through the intro this time around. Going to avoid cutscenes where possible.

    Hey con, Awesome prototypes can’t wait till you finish it it will be AWESOME

  • GenericInsult

    Con,

    Holy cow guitar hero batman, you have really took a huge leap from your first two games from this series! (Both which I played countless times). I have been “following” your posts and alphas for the game since the planning stages and I gotta say, Its coming along great. The amount of detail and design you are putting into a sidescroller flash game is outstanding, even if it is an early alpha! I am really pleased with the amount of fan input that you are putting into this game. No doubt when this hits Armor Games and all of the other places you plan on putting it, it will be an instant sucess. I know I am going to be playing it over… and over… anyways here is the good things that I am seeing:

    1) You are an obvious Oblivion and Fallout fan…sweet. Love games that let your character upgrade to your liking. (as well as inventory stuff and custom players)

    2) I am very interested in how the building systems will work. Seems like a really REALLY good feature, looking forward to this.

    3) Weapon features are AMAZING.

    4) Graphically… for a flash? AMAZING

    5) The amount of time I spent playing your alpha was… well… quite awhile. Not to meantion, but holy sh*t your alpha’s even save your level… good feature.

    Your a busy man Con, gotta give props to you. Not to meantion you have the time to read through testimonials like mine. Good man. Keep’r up, looking forward to the next alpha and the RELEASE :D

    Cheers,
    Generic

    Thanks man, glad you’re into it.

    But reading through the comments you deem suitable to answer to is just as funny in many ways! I seem to be noticing a pattern in who you choose to answer :P

    Only one bit of confusion: were you being sarcastic when you said you didn’t know what a bukkake is? I certainly don’t know what it is. :/

    Yeah I was, I’m a worldly fellow.

  • General

    Comment 104, WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS?!?!?!? FRIGGEN L4D2? NO. This is a free online computer game.. the zombies aren’t going to jump on you and rip you apart, they are going to attack you by swinging their arms and possibly punching or kicking and shooting you. Nice alpha Con.

  • http://Fri.ee Porno Guy

    I dunno if you accept this comment, but just to be clear, i wanna say that after i saw that bukkake thing, i searched few videos for myself and had a good wank.
    Thankyou.

    But yeah, probably not best thing to add to this game, as there are many underaged kids playing your game.

    Also, i’m very impressed with your game, and it’s atmosphere…keep up the hard work.

    You should blend the real world alley with the game a lil bit more, and then it’ll be perfect.

    With respect,

    Hah. Yeah, it’s out in my current working version. It was done by one of my artists not me.

  • http://www.caseyfallen.com Slim

    Hi Con,
    You know you that are doing everything right and that you are at the door of major success when people start becoming so jealous that they feel the need to attack you and try to bring you down to their level of misery.
    I find it funny how these types of people always hide their identity in true coward fashion.
    Also, I have no idea what your life was like in high school, but I was a dork. LOL! What I have noticed is every dork is now successful and all the supposedly unattractive people now are hot and all the ones we thought were hot ..not so much. LOL!
    You are a incredible artist. Keep doing what you do. You save us from boredom and give us something fun to do when times get hard.

    My offer still stands for music. We can master it into any file format and size needed. I would also of course advertise you to our fan base. It’s a pretty modest following. I know you have a lot of things already coverd, so no problem if there is no need or space for it at this time. But if it ever does, you can contact us at our site.

    Thanks for all you do. Your skills make you one of the coolest cats we know!

    P.S. I noticed the food does not come up all that often in searchs. Also, thanks for the NONE gun. That was a real riot in a room full of zombies. : P LOL!

    Heh, thanks. I’m not worried about the detractors, it comes with the territory. Yeah, I was a geek in highschool, playing and making games and stuff, when you get to my age though you realise how little those years mean socially.

    Is the screen supposed to go that fuzzy in the warehouse building? It seems worse than in the original rooms.

    And about that nasty comment up there, surely he’s pretty geeky as well to have taken the time to trawl through the internet to insult a flash developer?

    Also, Congratulations on CTC2, played that just now. Very nice looking.

  • Wraith

    Completely agree with comment 185. I myself have been following your last stand and warfare series con. Probably the most addicting games i have played on the internet.

    To me it doesnt matter when Union city will be finished, because i believe when i wait for a quality finished game like yours will be, i know it will be more than worth the wait. Don’t let anyone tell you how to do it, your game, your rules. As far as i’m concerened, take your time and enjoy it, and i look forward to the next Alpha and somewhere down the line the finished product. :)

  • General

    Hi Con, love what you’ve been doing here! I have spent hours and hours exploring just the Alpha alone! I love this series and never imagined you had it in you to make so much! I’m sure by the time Armor Games receives this it will be an instant sensation. This really puts the Flash Player to good use and will push it to see how much potential it really has.

    ~General

    P.S. I was kinda out of it with those last 2 comments >_> .

    I thought the first two games were great, but this one looks like it’ll be a whole new kettle of fish. Look forward to it immensely, and thank you so much for not making people pay your masterpieces.

    One tiny q., seeing as there are some detractors of the bukkake sushi poster, and “John Smith” requires feeding, would you consider making bukkake sushi an element of sustenance in UC? Just a (depraved) thought…

  • Viszlat

    *for your masterpieces…

    I’m actually a but bid sad to see Bukkake Sushi go :’D

  • BobFredBed

    I really enjoyed the first two games and looking forward to this edition. Just wanted to say I noticed two bugs in the latest alpha, and wanted to post them, cuz I haven’t seen them posted elsewhere:

    1. There is a gone in the game titled “None”
    When equipped, it morphs into the other weapon you have, except you can’t use it. Basically: I have a FAL Equipped in first slot. Equipping “none” in 2nd slot turns “none” into a FAL.

    2. The times will rapidly change or change out of nowhere. Like its morning, right. Poof, its night, without any notice. Then, the search able items will stay lit up, as if it was morning.

    3. Zombies. I have about 120 in each room. And I don’t understand why. This has given me the blue screen of death TWICE so far, because of all the zombies that build up.

  • bob

    i think the graphics are amazing

  • karl willson

    awesome. i hope that the rest of the game will be such high quality.

  • Nikolai

    Doesnt anyone relise that a bigger round doesnt make the gun the best ever. when it comes to plain reliability and above average stopping power the AK-47 is an excellent choice, but all that and amazing range and accuracy, the AK-109 is the king. Oh and to those saying the XM8 should be more powerful then the AK-47, tell me this, what is bigger? a 6.8 or a 7.62?

  • Bib

  • http://www.heraldsun.com.au Thomas Dawson

    I hate to bring this up again Con, and I know the majority of people here are mature enough to accept it, but my son, who is fairly young, has been on this site many times and asked me what a bukkake was the other day. I only managed to avoid an awekward situation by telling him it involved japanese food.

    Can I suggest that you make it a bit more ‘age’ friendly?

    Other than that, fantastic job. (I’m showing 0.85 to my boss tomorrow, hopefully he’ll like it ;) )

    Yeah it’s gone in the current version. I do find it funny still that people find something like that more depraved than EXPLODING SOMEONE’S HEAD.

  • Joel

    CONGRATULATIONS ON WARFARE 1944 WINNING MOST EPIC BATTLE SCENE!!! YOU DESERVE IT :)

  • Arabascan

    Very good gameplay, I like it. Only problems I had:
    -Items in search places are “regenerating”
    -Too small, not enough weapons and no survivors (you’ll add them, I know but don’t forget)
    -M1911 has no sound
    -Why do it is so difficult to find some pants?
    -Can you make the zombies “lootable”?

    And last: Congrats con!


    Not a bug, it’s testing mode.

  • CARBON z PULSE

    yeah not sure if its a bug or anything but the game is too easy as you can research everything to get more ammo and info books im not sure if thats how you wanted it but i think people could abuse it? just a thought great game though! 11/10!

    Great. I’ve been waiting for this game to come out. Can’t wait for the full version. A few new problems I found. Ocationally an attack/bullet will pass through a zombie without doing anything. This mostly happens when you stun the zombie/while they are stunned.

  • Buttslayer

    Please include a lot of guns. That is probably the thing I look for most in games. They are called SHOOTING games for a reason. Also don’t forget to have correct firing modes, reloading, cartridges, etc. Don’t make the guns too futuristic but don’t have them be from the 40s. Have somewhat modern guns taht are popular. Also don’t make tham ahev all these rare rails like S system. Overall don’t make it like a COD game. Don’t have AK47, but have like AK103 or AK105.

    I find it weird how the zombies hit and kick you instead of the usual biting, but its prolly just too hard to program bite attacks into the zombies and still make it look decent i guess..?

  • Farloe

    Ok Con youve really outdone yourself. The graphics seem real, almost a little too real, and as for the weps: good job. The only problem i see is the lack of sound but i bet your already well on your way about that. BTW nice job about the lying down zombies and how some are really dead while others are not. I was walking around outside passing 2 zombies. liitle did i know they were alive, right when i was in the middle of them they jumped up and trapped me. Nice job. Oh and i have an idea for you too, if its possible you could make it so zombs dont really notice you too much when your light is off and its dark, then they would only come after you if you are sorta close. But, if your light is on, the second your light hits them they run after you, same as closer becuz they would take notice to all that light.

  • Farloe

    i was going in further and i noticed that my guy was getting tired and i had no idea what to do… con this is a very odd situation…..

  • d3wd

    The level up limit to level 20 is pissing me off :-)
    Will there be more in an Alpha 0.90?! :D
    ~d3wd

    More levels? Dunno. The level caps and skill caps will need to be tweaked as the game gets built out.

    When are you going to put the Sub-Machine Gun-list out? It says on the poll page that you would post it in a FEW days, but it’s been over a week. I can guess what their going to be (UZI, UMP-45, Glock 18, and Mac-9) but I still want to see the real things.

    Yeah, soon.

  • Jordan

    I was wondering if the alpha stages will have a different data base to the full game.
    As i dont want to level up aload then find out i wont be able to use my save game from alpha on the full game.
    Thanks i will be awaiting a reply :)

    -Jordan

    You won’t be able to use your save game from alpha…so don’t bother levelling up.

  • bob

    con, i read a comment (forgot the commenter’s name) that recommended that you make character named con, which would look like you are you going to make this character? will he be an unlockable character or will we be able use your “sim” right from the beginning?

    No.

    Hi Con,

    One asked about level cap, i think it’s bad idea to add one at all.

    Well if im not wrong, then after i complete Union City then the game is just over?
    Are you familiar with Diablo II?

    If you complete the game, you can start all overagain, with harder enemies, but your level will be intact.

    You might want to add similar system to your game, as true fans can play the game all over again, without feeling that they must start everything all over again.

    If you do that, you might want to add unique items to each difficulity rating. One item per category maybe.

    I know that it would be bitch to build such system to your game, as your game is near completion (i guess), but you would tirple your hardcore player’s ammount.

    More players, more revenue.

    Will look forward to reply.

    With respect,
    Porno Guy

    There will be difficulty settings as well as 2 game modes, check the fact sheet for more info on that.

    As for “new game +” type deals, it’s not something I’d considered, the reason being that the way I’m currently scaling difficulty is by zombie numbers and types, not by jacking up their HP. The way Diablo handles it is by increasing the HP on enemies and increasing their damage output. With my setup, there’s a finite amount of zombies I can put on screen without it chugging. I need to look at how the level matching goes with enemies before I can even look at something like this.

    Hey Con,

    You’ve obviously heard this enough times so I’ll keep it short and simple. Apart from literally wasting a grand total of about 4 hours trying to get all the types of handguns, assault rifles, shotgun, etc, it was pretty great for what I’ve seen. I’m probably being an idiot for asking this out right without checking the fact sheet, but I figured I’d ask anyways. I’m assuming that the way the whole searching is set up (where if you search again items will random spawn or you can empty it out and items will still spawn) is not going to be in the finished product (for good reason, of course) but I’m wondering if the same idea of you might find your (i.e. AK-47 or M4) in the news stand will be there, or if you’ll be scrapping the random item spawn for something more fixed in the finished product. Thanks for your time.

    -Tommy

    Yeah, I’ve gone over this enough times, I really should add it to the fact sheet.

    Each container has a set of base items which are fixed, what gets added that that are lucky and skill based finds. In future versions what you find the first time you open a container will be it’s contents forever.

    Hi again,

    Well you have HP system implemented on zombies right? (Probably the stupiest question i could ask, since you have to count the hits somehow.)

    As i see it is that once player has finished the game, all you do is multiplie their damage output and hp with x factor, or do you have some way more complex systems when dealing with zombie hp and damage output?

    Anyways i’d find this kind of system extremely rewarding to hardcore fans, and you seem to have ALOT of them, including me.

    With this system you could make highscore table on web, and add some ADs on it, after hardcore players start racing towards #1 place, the traffic on highscore page would be huge, including revenue from ad clicks, i guess. (But that again would need major security measures against memory hacking, which is pain)

    I know that such big ideas are pain, as they seem good, but would require too much work and change in current code.

    As i am programmer myself, i always find myself frustated when some of my fan comes up with great idea, but that idea just is complete opposite of my plans.

    With respect,
    Porno Guy

    I’m trying to avoid making the zombies bullet sponges is what I’m getting at. Raising their HP just makes them frustrating.

    As for high scores, I’m not a believer. They only work for a tiny percentage of people, those who manage to get into the top 50 lets say. 50 people out of 2 million per month, isn’t worth bothering with.

    lol i found a FAL and ashotty AND a machete! :D

  • http://www.iceage.wikia.com/wiki/User:ScratteLover2 AK-74 Rules!

    “ashotty”

    What the heck is that supposed to be?! Dosen’t sound like a gun.

    Con, you don’t have to respond, but I hope Tren dose to tell me what “ashotty” is.

    I hope he “dose” too. Taking a wild guess he means “a shotty”, “shotty” being slang for a “shotgun”.

    Heyo Conrade- awesome alpha. Keepin your fans entertained. We’re all rooting for your new game here in South Korea too.

    No offence, but how old are you? I’m guessing late 30s.


    Kamsahapnida, I’m a bit fan of South Korea, so I guess that works both ways. No offence taken, I’m 30.

    Hey Con, nice work, I sent you a feedback on what I thought of the zombies and damage, it’s going great btw.

    I noticed a slight animation problem with the arms if you have nothing equipped.
    – The arm at the back, the elbow sticks past the fore-arm.
