Apocalypse Racer: Racing & Zombie Survival Game

1. Apocalypse Racer A Game Idea by Sheldon Maloney and Ubaid Khan

2. My game Idea • My game idea is going the be called apocalypse racer which is a racing and zombie game

3. Game Proposal Apocalypse Racer is a unique game which combines the two popular genres which are racing and zombie survival games. Within the game you can get power ups that help you slow down people that you are racing against and helps you to not get destroyed by the massive amounts of zombie’s that await on the track. In Apocalypse Racer once you win you get money which you can then use to buy new cars or if you like the ride that you already have then you can use the money to upgrade your existing car but every car has its limits so starting off with beginning can only be upgraded so much so eventually you will have to buy a new car in order to win more races

4. Game summary • What we did to for secondary is compare and show how our games stand out from the crowd as it will be something brand new. • Our Idea was inspired by Racing games such as Need for speed, Forza and Gran tursimo as the game has that kind of feel • The modes will have survival, Race to the finish and zombie rush • The objective of survival is their will be a waves after waves of zombie doing everything you can to make sure you fail and die. The map of survival will be a bit like a derby arena • Race to the finish is a simple race which you will gain power ups to help you win during the races • Zombie rush is a timed mode which you will have one minute to run over as zombies as possible before the time ends.
