Game Overview
Title: Zombie Toys
Platform: PC Standalone + iOS & Android
Genre: Endless 3D survival shooter
Rating: (10+) ESRB
Target: Casual gamer (aging from 12 - 30)
Release date: April, 2016
Publisher: Unity Technologies

Zombie Toys is a third-person endless survival arcade game where the Player is a child (boy or
girl) who has awoken to discover that all their toys have come to life and become zombified.
Now the Player must survive by avoiding the zombie toy enemies. They may accrue points
by utilizing a special remote control toy to attack the zombies in one of four different ways
(Lightning Ray, Freeze Ray, Stink Bomb, and Slime). Using points accrued through the various
attacks, the Player may also spawn Allies, which currently include a Sheep. The Allies will help
the Player avoid the zombie toys and survive in the game.

High Concept
Zombie Toys sets the Player in a magnified children’s room where he/she is attacked by their
own zombified toys. Zombified plush animals are coming from everywhere, looking for you.
Fight back with your remote control toy! Use the Lightning Ray to blast them, the Freeze Ray to
temporarily immobilize them with ice, drop a Stink Bomb in their way and watch them run, and
launch a Slime attack to keep them busy.

Synopsis
In a bad dream, all your plush toys have become zombified. You are the sleeping boy or
girl who finds themselves surrounded by these creatures and under attack — there is no
escape, you must fight back!

Game Objectives
The objective of the game is to survive for as long as possible, while attacking Enemies
and scoring points.

Game Rules
The game level is a closed environment set in a child’s room where the Player is attacked
by fluffy zombified toys. The Player can move around and attack these Enemies with 4
different Weapons (see Weapons). In this level, there are different spawn points from which
the Enemies originate. Each Enemy has a different behavior and will try to defeat the Player
(see Enemies). The Player scores points by killing Enemies: the number points earned
depends on the Enemy type. After collecting a specific number of points (see Allies), the
Player can spawn an Ally who will help him for a limited amount of time.

Gameplay
Game Controls (PC)

Game Controls (Mobile)

With touch control, the Player will use two fingers to move the character, aim, and attack.
The first finger that presses the screen will move the character, while the second finger that
presses the screen will make the Player attack (i.e. fire/shoot) in that direction.

Game Camera
When the game starts, the camera will focus on the two characters the Player can choose
from. The camera will remain still while the Player chooses a character to play with.

After the selection is made, the camera will turn 180 degrees and will continue following him/
her from a fixed point of view. The camera will not rotate with the Player’s movement.

The background will be seen from a 3/4 perspective but for convenience it will be rotated by 90
degrees so that the camera can use the global coordinate system.

The camera will not turn when the Player does, so we get to see him/her from different angles
as the scene maintains the same camera view.

Character Line-up

NPC Enemies
The Enemies spawn from different spawn points located in the environment (see Level
Design). They are constantly searching for the Player. When they get close to the Player, they
attack, producing different amounts of damage, depending on their type. All of the Enemies
react equally to the different Weapons (see Weapons) and to the Allies (see Allies).

Enemy States
All Enemies possess the same behavior and states, as described below:

Idle: The Enemies play the Idle state, only when the Player is dead, while seeing the losing
screen, and before restarting the level.

Move: While the Player is alive, all enemies will be in the Move state, heading in the direction
of the Player or Ally.

Death: Death happens when the Enemy sustains too much damage from an attack.

Enemy Spawning
Each Enemy has its own spawn point (see Level Design) and will spawn at a certain rate. An Enemy will
only spawn if there are fewer Enemies of that particular type than others in the scene at that moment.

ENEMY SPAWNPOINT SPAWN RATE MAX ENEMIES

ZomBunny ZomBunnySpawnPoint 5 4

ZomBear ZomBearSpawnPoint 6 3

Hellephant HellephantSpawnPoint 10 2

ClownSpawnPoint ClownSpawnPoint 15 2

ZombieDuck DuckSpawnPoint 10 2

NPC Allies
Allies are animals the Player character trusts. They are in the game to help the Player survive. After the Player
accumulates the required amount of points, the Player may elect to spawn a Sheep Ally. Once spawned,
the Player will lose some points and the Sheep Ally will assist the Player for a finite period of time. When
spawned, all the Enemies will be attracted to the position of the Sheep, as the Sheep moves through the
scene. At this time, the Player will be able to attack the Enemies without being attacked in return.

Sheep

3.5 10 seconds 30 points

Ally Spawning
When the Player reaches a specific score (see NPC Allies sheet), a button will appear in the GUI with the
shape of the Ally. When clicked, the Ally character will be spawned from its spawn point (see Level Design).

Art
Setting
The game takes place in the children’s room. Because the children have been shrunk down to
the size of the toys, everything in their surrounding environment looks very large. A collection of
static toys dispersed around the floor serve as obstacles.

Level Design
The level consists of the children’s room, with toys
(dispersed around the floor) that will act as obstacles
for the Player and for the Enemies. The toy elements
(that serve as props) are placed so the Player can not be
occluded easily when they move behind one.

There will be four (4) different spawn points in the level.

Each spawn point is displayed as a green circle in the
scheme (shown right). Enemies will appear from these
spawn points at a precise rate.
