Pixelated Playtime: Three Dead Zed (XBLIG)

Three Dead Zed is a fine looking game, especially for an Xbox LIVE Indie Game. Those are dreadful words, aren't they? "Especially for an Xbox LIVE Indie Game." Any type of stipulation is bad; either something is one thing or the other, and no stipulation should be included or required. But stipulations are seen everywhere, used by many people (including myself more than once), and I don't know why I've decided to go on this tiny rant here of all the potential places, but ce la vie.

Anyway, I should actually take this time to talk about the game, Three Dead Zed, which is a fun little action-platformer where you control a zombie who gains the ability to switch between three different forms—a rather average zombie; a fast, agile zombie; and a large, female, hulkified zombie. They all control differently and come with their own advantages and disadvantages (obviously), which come in handy when trying to solve puzzles. As stated right off the bat, Three Dead Zed is a looker, featuring beautiful visuals, great character design, and fluid animations. I did get annoyed with the controls when trying to jump off ladders, but overall I enjoyed what I played and would recommend giving it a shot if you're looking for a fun little game to pass the time.

Hi there! Thank you for checking out our demo! Sorry you don't like our narration, but you can disable his voice under "Options>narration" if you want. If it helps, he does stop talking as much after the tutorials. The demo also takes you to the first stage to rescue the first cat. Not where it cut you off. That's a time limit thing we have no control over. Just fire it up again and you can stage select to where you left off.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Thanks again :)
