Zombie BBQ’s WiiWare successor
If I didn’t know that Zombie Panic in Wonderland has a different title and developer behind it, I would assume these screenshots are from the sequel to EnjoyUp’s Little Red Riding Hood’s Zombie BBQ.
But no, this WiiWare title comes from Akaoni Studio, a seven-month-old studio based in Spain. I know EnjoyUp is in Barcelona, so perhaps the Spanish have a unique cultural view on how the undead should look in video games?
As it turns out, a little research shows that Akaoni’s CEO and lead programmer are from Gammick Entertainment — Zombie BBQ’s publisher — as are one of its artists and likely many other employees. So, it’s no surprise that Zombie Panic looks like a more graphically impressive version of the DS shoot’em up from a lowered perspective.
Not that a rehash of Zombie BBQ is bad at all — I loved the first game! While it’s a shame that this isn’t portable, I’m eager to shoot at zombie ninjas with an uzi.
Actually, I’m hoping this new developer succeeds with all of its endeavours, just based on its awesome logo:
Seriously, I’m having a difficult time thinking of any other video game company with a better logo/mascot. You can see more screenshots from the game at Eurogamer.
