Left 4k Dead

Written by Jim Rossignol on December 27, 2008 at 8:40 am.

Just a quickie! Cute little L4D-inspired zombie shooter in 4k, via the excellent Offworld. Only single player, but hey, it’s zombies.

I hope you all got what you wanted for Christmas. We’ll be blogging again properly in the New Year. See you then?

This has got nothing to do with L4D, except for the name. Where are my teammembers? If you’re going to make a L4D demake, at least make sure you get teammates.

i guess it would have taken 5k to do that, and then the name wouldn’t have been as funny.

That is a stunning game. If you know anything about programming I’d recommend having a look at the source, it’s almost as pretty as the game itself :p. Getting it to be under 4k is no small feat

I think I may have accidentally stalked Jim yesterday. If I did I am sorry for the puzzled glances you got from me, the young gent in the green jumper, I was trying to work out where I knew your face from. It wasn’t until I got home and glanced through last month’s PC Gamer to see your mug next to a £100 pc that I realised.

I do not understand what people are talking about. There is no game on that site, and looking at the layout I don’t see where it would even be placed if it existed.

Is this some elaborate joke?
