A hard game to spell correctly: I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1N IT!!!1

In journalism, we have to get names right, and unfortunately, the exact name of this game is hard to remember exactly. I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1N IT!!!1 (henceforth, A Game With Zombies, or just Zombies) is the kind of game you think up of when you're drunk, then proceed to make after the hangover. You're not drunk anymore that it impairs your ability to program, but when you thought of the concept, you had just downed three Jack Daniels and finished watching Shaun of the Dead.

Guess who's coming to dinner?

Zombies takes the classic gameplay of Robotron and pits you against not only zombies in a classic top down perspective, but also a bevy of seemingly belligerent abstract constructs. Some of them look like dust bunnies while other times they annoying, flashing gifs your grandmother sends you because she thinks they're amusing. And all of them want to kill you by brushing up against you.

You move around with your left stick and shoot with the right with pick up weapons spawning randomly around the map, from machine guns to shotguns to flamethrowers. All while enemies constantly spawn and try surrounding you. It can be played with three other friends, dramatically causing the game to spawn more enemies to match, and the game becomes an addictive survival testing to see how long you can live. There's just sheer joy to be had when you can shooting in any general direction and mow down 10 to 20 zombies a second and hundreds more are still there to replace them.

So at 80 points, roughly a buck, Zombies is a cheap, economically fun game for those bored and on Xbox Live. Just look for it under the indie games tag.
