Zombie Doom Survivors - The Microblog
What Is Zombie Doom? Zombie Doom is a closed-circuit, real-time, geo-local social game organized and executed by survivors of the inevitable zombie apocalypse.

The survivors of the inevitable zombie apocalypse have organized! ...and they're all social media douchebags! Humanity is royally fucked!
Unless, somehow, the survivors are able to network. Socially...
So: The Engineers of Zombie Doom have established a small microblog called Zombie Doom Survivors. Our systems are far from functioning fully: the game engine works, but needs tweaking, and the story is very cool (think: 'Choose Your Own Adventure' + Twitter + Zombies) but also needs a lot of modification.
We're working some some very cool tech companies to help build our platform - Squarespace, ShoutEm, and Gowalla have been invaluable.
The Zombie Doom Team (we're calling ourselves 5D20 - more on that later) has a lot of work to do before were ready to let a large group of people survive on our system.
However: we've reached a point where we are comfortable allowing a small number of people play-test a few features. If you're interested in play-testing, swing by survivors.zombiedoom.com and register. You should be approved within a few days.
As always, if you have any questions feel free to contact the Engineers. More information as it becomes available.
Thanks.
