Just to clear this up, as I've been asked quite a lot lately, I am – in no way – the developer of Zombie Mansion. I was given an advanced beta copy, and made the video you see above.

Sean from SourceItSoftware designed the software.

-"maze-based environment" nobody wants a maze anymore, unless they have a map, or some way to tell where they have been, I dont see either in this, I see mostly endless repeating hallways with doors with no animation that may be unlocked or not. That's tedious, not fun.

-"even aiming your energy surges right becomes that of a challenge in itself" In the video I can clearly see that the controls are so limiting that the player cant even hit anything at a distance. This is not a gameplay feature, this is a serious flaw and not something to be touted. Notice that every monster seems to have perfect aim and kills the player in both encounters without ever getting hit once due to bad controls.

-"Gameplay is extended by the use of locked doors" get ready for trying every single door you find (there seems to be a ton of them) doing tons of backtracking once you find a key to see what door it unlocks. Gameplay should never be extended through locked doors, nobody likes it. We put up with it in Doom because it was so much fun to kill demons.

-"You’ll also find a mirage of twists and turns, locked doors, wells, prison bars, gates and other obstacles which will stop you from escaping" Obstacles that hinder my progress aren't exciting, I don't care about them. I know I've just gotten harsh here, but its like seeing "crates!" as a feature in quake.

If this was scheduled to come out in a few months we don't have a problem, by that time we could have direction controls that support dragging your finger to move like using an analog joystick, perhaps some accelerometer controls, a map feature, levels that are more diverse so the player can tell where they are and where they have been. different weapons and a way better aiming system. Add all that and we're talking, as it is I think it needs a lot of improvement.
