Background
Zombiecraft brings the Call of duty zombies gamemode to Minecraft. It was originally created in 2011 as a mod and saw great traction for about a year. Unfortunetly it died soon after due to a team breakup. During its glorius year, the mod was played by famous youtubers such as CaptainSparklez (11 M), DanTDM (25 M) and Syndicate (9.8 M). Here is a video of CaptainSparlez playing zombiecraft in 2011:
 
Fast forward to today, Minecraft has expanded its customization abilities by a whole lot: data packs, custom user interface, custom items/blocks, great server plugin apis etc... It is now possible to do things that were previously only possible to make with mods.
 
The project
I'm rebuilding Zombiecraft in a vanilla Minecraft server. No mods required, no installs, just join the server and you're ready to kill some zombies.
 
I want to recreate Zombiecraft in vanilla Minecraft because I really like the zombies game mode from the original Call of Duty franchise. Having such a game mode in Minecraft brings creativity to it. Making it vanilla this time will make it more accessible. I think there is a pretty big niche out there that enjoys this kind of game. So far, no server has been able to achieve a true level of quality for a nazi zombies game mode with an active community and a strong server structure.
 
Where its at
Currently alpha version 0.7. Here are some of the implemented features so far:
  • Custom schematics reader/writer
  • A map making tool called the editor staff used to place and tweak gameplay mechanics such as:
    • Spawnpoint positions
    • Wall weapons
    • Mystery boxes
    • Perk machines
    • Barricades
    • Zombies spawners
    • Doors
    • Lighting
  • Custom UI Renderer
  • Custom interaction system
  • Hierarchical Dynamic Pathfinding - used to automatically link gameplay mechanics together such as which doors enable which spawners and which spawners are linked to which doors. This precompiled process happens during map publishing
  • Lobby/Arena management system
  • Gameplay system - rounds, zombie spawns, point system, hotbar management...
  • Custom zombies AI with functional barricade breaking
  • Guns such as the Raygun...
