Zombocalypse iOS
Zombocalypse iOS will be a side-scrolling shooter zombie game with RPG elements.
Zombocalypse is focused on bridging the gap and reaching a compromise between players that
enjoy the game mechanics of the Call of Duty franchise and players who enjoy the ease of
playability in casual games -- essentially targeting casual gamers who want more out of a game.

and darker, and locations and particles will have fine details.

ZOMBOCALYPSE iOS | 13
Clones of Zombocalypse have been proven to be a huge hit on the Android platform, but there
hasn't been a version created yet that is of a high enough caliber, especially in the iOS market
(refer to previous pitch for metrics). The design of Zombocalypse is also well suited for IAP (in
app purchases), which can be utilized prominently.
Limitations of our project Zombocalypse 2 (Flash) were funds. More funds will allow us to do
more than simply port the Flash version to iOS, it will allow us to create a solid and very high
quality Zombocalypse that can be ported to other platforms and allow Adult Swim to target
numerous markets.
We'd especially like to penetrate into mainstream gaming markets, such as Steam, XBOX live
arcade, PSN, Nintendo, and handheld devices. With the necessary funds, Zombocalypse iOS will
be made into a game that can be considered a flagship title into these markets. Our team is
qualified to bring this vision to life.
