Zenzizenzic was nominated for the Indie Dev Grant! If it were to win, an awesome bit of financial support would be given by the lovely folks over at Bundle In A Box to further develop the game.

It has to go through a voting process, and you can help out in that, which would be hugely appreciated! While you're at it you'll also get some cool indie games which people worked hard on to develop and support those devs as well.

Head on over to Bundle In A Box, grab the bundle for 2$ (or more if you'd want) for 5 cool games, and after activating it you can vote for Zenzizenzic to help it win the Indie Dev Grant! There's not a lot of voting going on, so every vote weighs a lot and Zenzi's got a good chance at winning! It's not a matter of hundreds of votes, but just a dozen or so to take the lead.

So if you'd like to grab a couple of cool games and help Zenzizenzic out while you're at it, I would be so grateful!

Thank you for your time!

A fresh beta update is available on bitHuffel.nl. Go give it a whirl, and let me know what you think (and if something breaks)! Also, some fine cover art, 'cause why not!

Spinning laser beams of death and some other stuff thrown in there trying to kill you, pretty much!

Just voted this game up in steam. On the fence of pledging on the kickstarter, as I'm spending way too much at the moment... And I have 4 mouths to feed... Ah, excuses, excuses, I know. :lol:

I was checking back on your KS and was pleased to see you hit your goal. Congrats! I finally decided to pull the trigger as well.

I enjoyed your demo but I will need to get a gamepad adapter for the laptop to get the full experience!

For someone who is new to game development, you were still able to run a successful Kickstarter campaign your first time up to bat. There are industry veterans with years of experience who manage to botch that up. But you did it! You kept your scope small, made a lot of development progress on your own before asking for help with a very practical funding goal.

Great work. Look forward to the finished product! :D

Late to the party, but downloading the beta now.
Looks interesting, we played (and enjoyed) a lot of everyday shooter, was this an inspiration?

Great to see you getting your kickstarted funding!
We gave you a shout out on the shmuproom, best of luck with the final hours and stretch goals.

I completely forgot to bring this up, and it's only a minor issue, but my mouse doesn't have a scroll wheel (it's one of those touch sensitive mouses) and I remember the game uses it, so could there be some other option put in eventually?

Awesome game! Downloaded the Beta and consider yourself with one vote plus on Greenlight and a new backer on KS!

Saw an article on this game over at Destructoid a few days ago, pretty awesome. ;)
