Heute gibt es einige News von Halfbrick Studios.
Zum einen hat der Entwickler seinem coolen Dual-Stick-Shooter Age of Zombies™ eine Lite-Version namens Age of Zombies™ Lite veröffentlicht, mit der du das Spiel kostenlos anspielen kannst.
Zum anderen gibt es ein Update für die Vollversion Age of Zombies™, die dem Spiel neben dem Ausmerzen von kleinen Fehlern eine neue Waffe namens Sentry Gun hinzufügt. Diese ist äußerst effektiv im Kampf gegen die Horden von Zombies und erscheint ab und zu in den Levels des Story- und Survivial-Modus, um von dir eingesammelt zu werden.
Beschreibung des Updates (englisch):
First of all, a huge thanks to all the Age of Zombies and Halfbrick fans around the world for picking up Age of Zombies! We are commited to ensuring the game is an excellent as possible, and as a quick token of our appreciation today we have a simple but awesome update for you!
The new Sentry Gun will appear as random weapon pickups in both the Story and Survivial modes. With this beast of destruction, Barry unleashes yet more power to ensure zombies have nowhere left to run! Simply fire to drop the gun in position, which will then use one of several powers to gun down foes!

As a final note, we thank you for your continued feedback and bug reports, and we are continually working on minor bugs and changes to make sure Age of Zombies is the best it can be!
Major bug fixes:

– Black screen on startup
Barry Steakfries forever!
