Liked the idea, liked the game but like faster games, everything else is great

doonay21 2013-08-27 13:11

Yup could be a little bit faster, but I guess this slowness is somehow moody. SFX is hilarious ;)

magicdweedoo 2013-08-27 13:15

i feel like the predator hunting arnie in the jungle

wally2069 2013-08-27 18:38

The zombie was a bit sluggish but I like them that way

kratorspore 2013-08-27 18:53

Very atmospheric soundtrack and pretty compelling gameplay. Yeah the slow speed was an issue and there was a little too much luck involved for my liking.

deepnight 2013-08-27 21:42

Works nicely :) The game would have been even better with an additional gameplay trick, like a way to manually switch the controlled zombie, or a faster paladin but who follows predetermined paths.

kebabskal 2013-08-27 21:47

Liked the idea, but gameplay a bit felt slow for it to be a homerun. Great with ingame tutorial "comic" :)

x-or 2013-08-27 21:51

Movement speed is a bit too slow =/ Apart from that I like the Human > Zombie > Guard food-chain :P (The guards don't actually *eat* the zombies, right?)

01010111 2013-08-27 22:33

I wish it were faster too, but it was a cool game nonetheless! I really liked the graphics and lifebar

kristof 2013-08-28 11:24

Neat little game. Each level, I spent the first seconds finding the zombie I am currently playing. Maybe you could give it a more prominent color? Good work though!

meedoc 2013-08-28 11:24

Nice entry! However, I miss a score system. On some levels, I didn't know if it was more rewarding to eat all those humans or just to rush the brain

unixxnova 2013-08-28 11:39

great game could have used better graphics though

derosa 2013-08-28 11:45

Liked the concept, but a little faster zombie would not hurt ;)

eggdestroyer 2013-08-28 11:46

Finished it. Cool entry, liked the atmosphere and the audio. You could accelerate the game a bit, plus using some feedbacks to indicate the position of your rebirth after one death. I guess the guards could be a bit faster to improve the challenge (= dodging them). Nonetheless, good job !

motty 2013-08-28 12:00

Simple, cute, fun. Nice one.

aslai 2013-08-28 12:25

A huge swarm of paladins ganged up on me :(

erkberg 2013-08-28 12:45

A higher pace would be nice, but apart from that this is a nice game. I like the music, too.

spliter 2013-08-28 12:53

The premise seemed pretty neat but the painfully slow pace at which you move removes quite a lot from the experience.

myyyvothrr 2013-08-28 17:39

Thank you for all your feedback! I think I know exactly what to change ;)
kristof / EggDestroyer: Visual feedback after respawn is a great idea!
Meedoc: Score system and points for eating would also be cool... :)

Will post video review when ready.

BRAINZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

awesomesauce 2013-08-29 15:10

I like the fact that are pulsing brains just hanging around each area. It's just like where I live.

blay09 2013-08-29 15:27

I liked the Brainz timer on the top :) Apparently I got killed by a human that wasn't a guard.

good job

finnegan2100 2013-08-30 19:21

Nice + fun game! Reminded me a bit of Infectionator (I think that's what it's called). Sound effects were funny! The speed could've been a little quicker,but it wasn't too much of an issue. Great job!

sdgusler 2013-08-30 20:24

The game is fun, but it seems you have to be lucky to get to the brains as the zombies are so slow. Liked the background music.

flarb 2013-08-31 09:47

Love the music.

garygreen 2013-08-31 09:53

Nice idea. The music worked really well with this and added a bit of menace to the game. I liked the way you used Brainzzz as a timer too. :-)

almightyzentaco 2013-08-31 16:18

What I liked: The music was good. The concept was an interesting stylistic twist on "get to the goal in ten seconds". And the minimalist graphics reminded me of the days of ascii as characters in games.

What I wasn't fond of: The game is kind of slow. It's pretty simple.

All in all a good entry. I enjoyed it.

endurion 2013-08-31 16:21

Love the sounds :)

Make the player a wee bit faster, make him stand out more (the first few Zs are lost when looking where you are)
Oh, and some reset level function. I accidentally ate all humans in the middle, died and resurrected at the start without a chance to reach the end part.

diptoman 2013-08-31 16:32

The game's idea is good, the art looks great for a 48 hour entry as well. But the zombie's movement is a bit sluggish.
So it slows down the gameplay by quite a bit, especially when you have to take the path all over again with a different zombie.
Otherwise, a good game. :)

withoutpillow 2013-09-01 11:38

a little slow -- but of course, that fits the concept.

zedutchgandalf 2013-09-01 19:46

The game is pretty slow, I think it would be more fun if it was a little faster (maybe just a little, even). I do love the "brainzzzz" timer :)

phocker 2013-09-02 20:11

great idea but just a little too slow -- nice effort

jupiter_hadley 2013-09-11 01:51

Nice little game, but yes, I do feel that is a *bit* slow. Other than that, well done. I featured this game in my LD27 compilation video, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/jm5J5gdV81o

Thanks again for your comments! I tried to improve the most important ones in my post compo version: http://www.myyyvothrr.de/compos/ld27-pc/
