Has anyone else played this? Currently, all that's available is a pre-alpha tech demo, yet it is almost as fleshed out as most of the current games being released today. It is a sandbox-style "zombie apocalypse" simulator, yet finds the perfect balance in realism and gameplay, something VERY few games manage to have. One other thing, is it's approach to the goal of the game. You will not be saved, nor helped, nor be able to rebuild society. The intro itself ends with the words,"This is how you died". And the game truly makes you want to avoid death. Dying restarts the game. Entirely. The devs have stated multiple times that the point was to die in the most hilarious, epic, fun, etc. way, so that you could chat with your friends about it, or make a Youtube video about it. Not only that, they're going to add multiplayer eventually too :)

NOTE: The current demo does not work when downloaded, and you have to edit the batch file that you use to launch it. The current solution is here: http://theindiestone.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=2332
Also, the devs are constantly active on the forums, and tend to interact with the community directly.
