[Klug-general] OT .. Christmas Zombies

[Paul Lawrence]

Just survived a trip
to the supermarket. Had an idea for a Christmas game … just need a
bunch of coders … 

This FPS game sets
you in charge of a trolley in a seek-and-find being attacked by
fellow seekers (zombies) who act unpredictably
(swerve/stop/reverse/block) along with the really dangerous
supermarket staff stackers and shoppers with their loaded trolleys. 
You start with certain energy .. with seeps away over time and lost
on collisions or when you are blocked. Being blocked completely turns
you into a zombie immediately. Some aisles also absorb your energy
more than others … the card aisle? Customer service? Long check-out
queues. 

Can you complete
your mission before your energy runs out and you become a zombie?

Other ideas ….
Recharge energy in
cafe
Recharge by clearing
packaging in aisles
Recharge by getting
items off high shelves for other shoppers ..
Use of self service
checkout has a random element for success and recharge energy or
failure and lose all energy.
Out of stock items
cause you to lose energy faster

Thoughts … ?
