I had a similar idea before the compo, but i liked you take on it :)

First off, please next time please find a less sleazy file sharing website to put your file on. If I want to play "find the right download button and not the one that gives me a ton of adware" then I'll go search for torrents.

OK, and I can't play the game because I don't have DirectX 11, please choose the "Reach" profile in your XNA distribution settings if you don't use DX11 features. Please mention that you use XNA.

Im sorry for that, i have fixed most of the issues hope it works now :)

Ah, thanks for the Reach profile exe. I can test this now :)
Not too easy, interesting idea to control zombified humans but you're too busy clicking and making circle motions to do that! I wonder why the humans would ever leave the sanctuary in the first place... Ideas for post-compo: AI controlled zombie-humans, some valid reason for the humans to flail about (fire?) Fun idea.

The time the survivors spend in house is kind of wasted waiting around, which seems sort of pointless, but other than that very good. *Love* the run animation :)

Nice complete game. Well done.

I might forgot to mention it but you need to move away from the house a bit and they will appear in an instant :)

It would be a bit more fun if the zombies you control had some sort of AI of their own becase right now, they are just standing when they should be munching about. The rest of the mechanics are a bit problematic as well. People are moving around in a strange pattern and a bit too fast - you can't catch them unless you trick them which is a compelling mechanics but it needs some polishing. Other than that, it's a pretty fun game.
