Through the Dead City

Through the Dead City is an open-world zombie survival game. You must scavenge for weapons, supplies and find other survivors to join you as you fight your way through a procedurally generated city.

Current status:

The project is on hold indefinitely. Unfortunately I didn't have time for large personal projects for a couple years and now the framework (XNA) is outdated. I feel that if I ever do continue development on Through the Dead City, I would start over in Unity and make multiplayer a higher priority. But at the moment there are no plans to continue unless there is a large demand to see it completed.
