Zombie Jamboree

To those of you who heard my idea for integrating interaction into a narrative, not a week goes by before I find they're stealing my thoughts!

It was bound to happen, of course. A lot of the ideas thrown around in class are actually present in the game, like dead players converting to zombies. Penny Arcade has a comic depicting a variant of the sort of infighting I would like to encouraged between players, keeping with the zombie genre. Of course, when you apply adventure game logic, this infighting ends up like this. THIS is why these guys are doomed, not the slow moving living dead. Nuh uh. Heh, they even mentioned a gemstone, the universal skeleton key of adventure games.

To those who I talked to last night about mobile input...the Director serial Xtra I just downloaded can read in serial data. This includes the Garmin GPS.
