Nice! I once had the same idea, like making a L4D Shooter with the rpg-maker! But I was unmotivated, so I never started!

Btw. looks like the cut-version hrhrhrhr

[HolyEvilz]

lol. that looked like fun.
are there other SIs.?
I'd shit brix if a tank came raping me, seeing the number of shots taken to down a boomer...

[Bill_the_nonchalant]

That's fairly impressive. Where do you think we'll be able to find it to play it once it's done?

[hunterhunter]

AWSOME L33T and EVERYTHING ELSE....

DO
WANT!!!

[Blade]

That's fairly impressive. Where do you think we'll be able to find it to play it once it's done?

The info does say it will be available to download for free in January 2010. He neglected to say where though.

Bumping because it's out, and it's pretty good too, albeit very hard.

[Stuffinator]

I lol'd at the witch!

[armored cow]

Downloading now.

EDIT: Can you not switch to pistols whenever you want?

EDIT2: Nevermind. Also, this game is really hard. And there's no Smoker :(

EDIT3: Nevermind. There is a Smoker.

[Smoker]

This game is hard. D:
I think it's meant to be played with two people though. (Well, it is Left4Dead)

I wish there was some sort of save system... I don't see how I'm going to get to blood harvest or something without turning the PC off once. :U

I finally got to Mercy Hospitals roof, there's like, 60 zombies there and when I saw the tank I just lol'd because it just looked strange and way too big. ._.
But then I got killed (For the sixth time) by lone zombies everywhere, so I gave up.

The common zombies are waaaaay too powerful. The only thing that can do much damage to me are the normal zombies. :c

I love it though, the best thing IMO is the music. 'Specially the Main theme. c:

[Nuttz]

Yeah, it is very hard. It's neccessary though, I mean it is trying to make a NES game out of Left 4 Dead.

I just gave up when I got to the entrance to the hospital, only to be killed by a fucking witch. He could've told us that she instantly gets pissed off! I was going to try again, but the game crashed as it was loading.

[Bill_the_nonchalant]

Just played it. I couldn't even get passed the subway station in No Mercy. Tell me, to anyone who's beaten the No Mercy campaign, do you restart the entire game after you die in the other campaigns?

[Dvorakk]

Argh, this is HARD. I couldn't get past the sewers in No Mercy

[Nuttz]

You respawn at each safe room Bill. It's still fucking hard, I had no idea what to do on the finale.

[t3rmikxs]

In one player its hard and there is nobody to play with. Damn :D

[Elite]

Have to make an account to download? Fuck that.

[Avilsta]

I got raped by 5 zombies. On normal just cause I forgot you could melee >:|

It could be fun, but seems annoying how I only found this out right before I have to go to sleep to wake up early tomorrow...

[Smoker]

For those who can't be bothered making an account to download, you can download it straight away from this link. http://ricin.us/Left4Dead.zip


I think you complete No Mercy by just killing the Tank boss on the roof. I don't know what happens after that, but yeah.

I wonder if it's possible to kill the witch, probably not because she flies around the screen too fast to actually shoot her... ._.
Also, she just looks like she's wearing a white straw hat.

[Grieverlionhart]

I got out the sewers onto the bit i think where the safehouse in the reception office in the proper game. I had no assault rifle ammo left and 1 bit of health so i just ran left when a dead end got me aquainted with 4 zombies :O melee needs abit more pushback I thinks especially since pushing enemies upwards does nothing because they still clip your head

[Bloodshed269]

I couldn't get out of the apartments.

[Bill_the_nonchalant]

I tried doing two players at the same time, only myself because I'm a loser. I thought it would have made it a bit easier because two hand are better then one. I never got passed the first floor of the apartments.

And what the fuck do I press to get that hunter off of me?

[Bloodshed269]

Why does the picture on the cartridge usethe right hand, instead of the left?

[Avilsta]

Tried it again, and it's too hard :\ I played single player and it sucks that they move so fast I barely get a chance to shoot at them, and I ended up having to run diagonally to dodge them. I made it to the sewers than I realized I could just play the real L4D...

[Smoker]

I think it's meant to be extremely difficult because NES games were found to be extremely difficult. Apparently.

And I don't know the actual button to get a hunter off you, but I just mash all the controls: w a s d h u. Not spacebar though. :U


Off topic: They should make a chocolate bar called the Spacebar. That is a cool name.

[armored cow]

Just spam the Shoot button, H, to get Hunters off of you.

[hunterhunter]

just got raeped...but then again I don't really know the controls

[Zanz]

I see they incoporated invinco zombie who runs around you:P

[hunterhunter]

moar...raep...god...this game is harder than the origianal

[ExodusRW]

I tried this with my friend and we made it all the way to Dead Air and quit there. once you kill the tank on the roof the helicopter comes to pick you up and it plays a short cutscene saying "the survivors have escaped... or have they?" or something like that. same with death toll except its the boat instead of the heli (ofcourse) also i like how if your teammate dies you can pick him up by punching him repeatedly as long as you get to him quick enough
