Hm, where do I download it?

Sorry! Added links for the exe and the web build.

Not bad. Reminded me of Atari days playing Robotron.
It could have greatly benefited from some sound effects.
I ended up making my own sound effects with my mouth while playing.
The mouse sensitivity is a bit high and the arrow is visible on screen and gets locked when it hits the side forcing you to unwind it by spinning the opposite direction.
I liked the in game obstacle construction and the helpless feeling of being overwhelmed.
Overall I enjoyed it.

Could have used Screen.lockcursor, was a bit annoying when the mouse kept going off screen. It sorta impacted the fun the game could have provided.

Otherwise the mechanic seems solid, and there are some parts that, with enough polish could make for a decent mobile game for passing some time...

the staticity of the models reminded me of total anhilation for some strange reason.

Mouse sensitivity is crazy high, I started to get arm cramps trying to control it. That'd be a cool thing to have in the empty options menu. In-game instructions would be handy, too.

Yes, mouse sensitivity and lack of lock made the game harder than already is. Having to reload is a nice touch, but I get swarmed too easily.

Pretty fun! It might be my touchpad, but the looking-around goes a bit fast. Also, the game asks for a bunch of controls at the beginning; I can understand the graphics options, but the controls were a bit intimidating (especially since there were lots of them).

My main complaint is that the bullets collide with the crates that the zombies drop, making shooting into a crowd impossible, since the crates move towards you and block the zombies.
