Resident evil/ metroid like Zombie Game for iphone

The title says it all, I'm building a Resident evil/ metroid like game for iphone!
I just wanted to share progress with some fans who might be interested. This game is hugely inspired by all resident evil games, and Super Metroid for SNES

This is actually looking pretty cool! Well done on the project.

Too bad I don't have an iPhone, though :/

The latest trailer highlighting some of the upgrades/weapons
Gravity Beam
Ice Beam
Magnet boots
Flame Thrower
Scanner
etc.

Feedback Appreciated! and thanks for all the feedback thus far

Will this game be playable on iPad, and if so, will it support the iCade arcade cabinet?

It won't work with the iArcade, but it runs great on my ipad 2, I'm assuming it'll run on ipad one also, but I haven't tested yet.

I'm just waiting for apple to review now
here is the latest
I've switched to tiled images for the ground/backgrounds cause I think over all it looks better, and with this new design I was able to get all the backgrounds to parallax scroll much like super metroid!

Oh man, that last pic is awesome! Do you have a seperate artist to make all the non sprite images?

Btw. When this is ready, you should give a review version to Mark from Classic Game Room. He does really good reviews and always finds the best aspects of games. By watching his reviews I've gone and bought quite a few games I otherwise wouldn't have even known existed.

Yeah that last picture is awesome.

Thanks guys!

@Mass Distraction
I did all of the concepts which can be seen here http://monsterrobotstudios.com/
and the sprites.
all the unlockable gallery images like the one above are being done by various comic artists
I'm a comic book artist by day, so I'm getting some of the best ones I know to help contribute to the in game gallery

More to come....

Here is some gameplay footage of the iPad version!

Why do the mods let him stay if all he does is advertise his iPhone game?

Why not? At least it's somewhat relevant and he doesn't spam.

Ah come on man he shouldn't be banned for that. lol

All of his posts have been advertising his product. If I did that I would be banned.

Well he's doing it right now and he wasn't banned. lol

It's not like he spams the forum everyday saying, "HEY EVERYONE!!! BUY MY APP!!!!". Personaly, banning him would make us look like super serious and unfun people.

@保守的な
I'm more looking for feedback then trying to sell a product, as far as I can tell most of people on here don't have iPhones or iPads, etc. I'm hoping to get constructive thoughts/feedback from people who play games such as Metroid and resident evil. I just want to make a cool game, I can assure you I'm making little to no money with this project

But if people do feel like I'm spamming the forums I'll stop with the updates

@monsterbot
Thank you for clarifying, I don't really have a problem with you posting updates about your game here.

I like this project so I'm actually interested to see more.

Who says that? D: No you wouldn't. For example, I'm advertising my LP's all the time Not that anybody acutally looked at them, though.

And 00biohazard advertises his fan-fiction all the time, but the first chapter alone seven pages long with 10 point font in real life.
