I mean they might not succeed as the next big franchise or anything, but I think they've really got something special. (along with the MMORPG) I LOVE em all. I do think they could have fairly wide appeal. They have good graphics, great setting, good writing ... fairly wonky control and music though. Not enough people learn the three-hit combo right away.
Vs. Zombies is kind of more of the same but with many tweaks: for one thing, many enemies in this one take only a few hits right from the start. I do like the original Bad Nerd a lot better than this one though. The first Bad Nerd's story and writing are soooo delightful and funny, but this one really doesn't have as much writing. I think most missions are just things like "Where can I find more zombies?" "Oh I know, I'll mark it on your map." The game does warp you to the zombies, to its credit.
I can't get enough of Bad Nerd though. That's why I'm playing the MMORPG now even though I don't usually enjoy multiplayer. I wouldn't possibly give Vs. Zombies any other rating, even though I don't especially enjoy zombies. Thanks so much VNL for continuing to work on your games. :)
