It’s been nearly a year since the release of the original Zombie Outbreak Simulator in late November last year, and about 7 months since we released Class 3 Outbreak (C3O) in April this year.
The original version of C3O included two maps, in Washington DC and Leicester England, covering a total area of around 1.25 square kilometres. We figured that the other 150 million square kilometres of land on Earth deserved to experience a zombie apocalypse too!
So since the last release we’ve started work on a new version of C3O. This version includes an editor, which lets you choose anywhere in the world (where the Google Maps® image quality is good enough), draw in the locations of walls, buildings, trees etc, and then send in the zombies. So you can watch as zombies take over your house, work, school, wherever!
Here is what the editor currently looks like:
Once you’ve edited a map, you can click Publish and your map becomes available as a marker on the home page, for anyone to play:
Click a marker, and you’ve got instant zombie mayhem:
After several months of development we’re now at the stage where we are ready to start closed beta testing. So we’re putting out a call for beta testers!
The current version is a very early release – there’s still plenty more for us to do during the beta testing phase, before we’re ready for a public release. Also, this version can currently only play the Zombie Outbreak Simulator on custom maps. We will be adding the ability to play games like C3O, and lots more game features, soon.
If you would like to be part of the beta, send us your email address via our contact page, and we’ll send you details on how to log in. You can also keep an eye on our forums, for updates on our progress.
Jay and I are looking forward to seeing what kinds of maps you build!
cya,
Saxon
heck ya
Epic! Pick me!
i will be interested in this so i wanted to know if i can test this
I’ve made one map so far. I’m working on map as we speak based in california el cajon on a trailer park.
Hoping to beta test new feature
Wow, great job man
Hey guys. I have to say your game is great! It’s truely pic and I’m up every night playing it. I would just like to say I think you should put in more playable features in the new games you make (if you do). the 2 things in mind are Barracades, and resources. I don’t think you will read this but if you do I hope my comment helped. you guys are great
From Ben (AKA ElectroWolf)
I would like to be Beta – Tester.
Grats! It works perfectly!
I already made a map in Hobart.
i want to be part of the beta please let e in
choose me plz
Man this looks so kewl spelled k-u-w-l oh wait aw thats a fail still looks awesome
looks awesome
hi i want to try the editor on a sweden outbrake
please pick meh :c
i guess i’ll beta test, seeing as i still play both of them now
hi
this is so so so so awsome. please please sign me up please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow that looks great….I’d love to test it
I’d like to create some maps, can I have the editor? thanks a lot guys! :D
Uh, I want! I LOVE zombies!
wooooo! this is great time to usemy house as a base fort :D but seriously this make me realy happy that work is still being done on this game and the developers are listening to the fans suggestions. keep it up!
please accept me!
i’m late? D:
hey thx for picking me
i have made a couple maps so far and its awesome
keep up the good work
i love this game and would lov to beta test
will you be able to obtain high resolusion imagery in other places? I cant use my house in a map…. :(
Bummer your house isn’t available! Its up to Google, even if you could ask them to photograph your neighborhood I imagine the cost would be more than a few dollars!
I’d suggest if you can’t get your house, try other houses you’ve lived in, friends houses, your work, school, places you’ve traveled, etc.
I’ll do it. I’m a huge fan of your games and give good feedback but is it too late too join?
not to rush a awsome developer how long till c3o has it cause its awsome.
Pick me! I sent an email request, I want to test the beta as well!
The editor looks really fun to work with. is it, besides the fact that you have to do every house, tree, and car in a certain area?
Well, its easy to use and it can be fun to do maps of areas you know well. It can also take a while, so there’s a bit of work and repetition involved. Some people have said they really enjoy it though, it’s probably a bit of personal preference :)
Good Good Add Military For Certain Maps Areas cause i got 2-3 that if only the Radiation or military wouldnt black out
They are, Area 51,Chernobyl, And Moscow Cause
Russias got enough radiation to black out the satelitle so no maps in Russia and Area 51 has a black out since its a Military Compound IN use
Jay, I live in Tasmania. (On the Northen Coast! So I probably won’t get any high def pictures.) Thanks anyway! :)
hello how do we get in to test this ?
i would love to have a crack at being a beta tester for this, mostly to see what it would look like to see the place i live in overun with zombz, but also cuz it would be cool to be able to be part of the team testing this badboy of a game out, as i can see this one on the up n up! its greatly addictive, and has got alot of potential to just keep getting better, it could be like command and conquer but with zombies!!
NICE! i discovered your game the other day, and i loved it!
i was thinking it would be great if all the cities in the world could have this! and i knew it would be a massive task for one company to do so. but you thought up a solution, anyone can, and that’s great! I’m definitely gonna do my hometown and make sure all my mates play it!
Definitely will beta test great game if you want me to!
Also are you going to implement Army reserves; National Guard, Territorial Army?
This, sounds awesome.
i want to try out different maps so much this is so much fun and if only you could have tanks and soldiers not just police it would be even better in a sandbox mode
Hellz yeaa!
Hey i would really like to be a beta tester for your game and would love just to help out please can i be a tester your game is the best ever.
sound like a good idea to me i have been playing since the orginal release it would be an honor if you selected me
OMG! This looks so awesome! I’ve been wondering what you guys were up to ;)
Please, if you need BETA testers, i’m your guy.
But if not, thats okay. Still pretty damn cool. Can’t wait till I play it

I would LOVE to beta this as im sure anyone would love to hold off from zombies in there own homes! how do i get in?
choose me as a beta tester ill make loads of maps.
and just for help you could make a thing on map chooser like game made maps and player made maps because i read that you can play other peoples maps and that would fill up every where you wouldn’t be able to click on the one you wanted.

Ive made a few games before, but this would be the best game to even beta test
Hey I want to try out beta testing it will be my first time . I love games.
Nice 1
Lol, Its Fun, But 1 Thing make a Auto MAker addon aka that adds the basic lines and walls cause it takes maybe 8-10 Hours for a Really large map to be fully blocked and coded
Can, i have another beta code my other 1 was in my email and i forgot to put it into drafts for saving and it got deleted when i had 300+ mails……….
Its Very good from what i played so far but for a tip pre-make major cities of countries ahead of time
