worked

with

Bungie

and

used

the

production

as

an

experiment

to

determine

how

he

would

run

an

independent

studio

The

games

development

began

with

a

team

of

twelve

but

Seropian

decided

to

use

contractors

which

raised

the

number

to

sixty

This

decision

brought

difficulties

when

the

hiring

process

wasnt

properly

overseen

leaving

the

team

with

a

shortage

of

producers

and

lack

of

cohesion

A

game

development

model

was

developed

with

fulltime

employees

overseeing

pre

and

post

production

phases

while

independent

contractors

worked

with

the

remaining

content

Using

the

Halo

engine

provided

some

problem

in

the

early

stages

The

engine

was

completely

developed

by

Bungie

and

it

lacked

notes

from

them

or

peer

reviews

that

would

emphasize

possible

programming

problems

Due

to

this

an

excessive

amount

of

time

was

spent

determining

which

contractors

would

require

training

to

use

the

engine

as

well

as

how

long

they

would

receive

instruction

From

the

onset

the

games

concept

intended

to

innovate

the

horror

genre

by

letting

the

player

play

as

a

zombie

Seropian

claims

that

the

team

intended

to

take

something

that

people

are

familiar

and

turn

it

upside

down

The

game

was

intended

to

contrast

with

what

was

regarded

as

the

general

idea

of

zombie

games

changing

the

straightforward

good

guys

versus

zombies

format

found

in

games

like

Resident

Evil

Humor

became

a

key

aspect

during

the

developmental

stage

with

Seropian

claiming

that

the

team

wanted

to

go

beyond

just

amusing

dialogue

in

a

cutscene

Character

dialogue

and

game

mechanics

were

designed

so

that

funny

results

are

directly

based

on

the

players

action

preventing

them

from

becoming

repetitive

Eurogamer

claimed

that

version

had

lots

that

quite

work

and

a

general

lack

of

The

was

perceived

as

painfully

short

linear

never

boring

The

were

described

as

nicely

varied

noting

that

places

like

the

are

extremely

well

designed

and

appropriately

The

received

predominantly

positive

The

as

the

that

the

to

the

point

of

claiming

that

Never

IGN

emphasized

the

cries

from

squishy

sound

as

elements

contributing

Cannibalism

controversy

Stubbs

encountered

controversy

in

regarding

cannibalism

in

NIMF

s

David

Walsh

and

US

Senator

also

criticized

the

as

cannibalistic

and

harmful

to

underage

children

Senator

Lieberman

stated

Its

just

the

worst

kind

of

message

to

kids

and

furthermore

it

can

harm

the

youth

responded

by

that

Stubbs

is

not

a

cannibal

chided

the
