The idea is here, but the gameplay feels decent at most. Graphics are nice, I like the art style. I don't see the humorous side of this game, maybe except 'swaggy' look of the zombies. The 'zombie apocalypse' mood is present and it is done okay. Overall, a pretty decent game, lacking just some polish.

Fits the theme well and is a fully playable game. I did find that I wished it was quicker to get going again. It seems like a game where you'll die a lot and it is already intended to be played dashing forwards. I think it'd work better if when you died it just re spawned you at the beginning and you could start running again instead of returning to the title screen. It sort of becomes like a temple run or endless runner and could probably get people hooked. Good job.

Such great music and pixelart. I looks really good to dash over the zombies. Loved the mechanics!

Web Version crashes due to missing texture file. Otherwise nice game!

You're making good use of the theme. It's fun, but I think it's a little too sensitive when it comes to touching the zombies. I couldn't get very far, but I imagine it'd be quite fun once you get into the flow and fly past the zombies. The music was nice too.

Brutal, i liked the flow when i was bouncing and smashing but heavy penalty of time for dying. I wish i had a few health bars or something instead of one hit death. Music and studio groans were good.

Tricky, fun game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/LlS8bcKfkfQ

Great game! Very unforgiving hit boxes :) lived the artwork. Great job

I like the idea and it fits the theme well, but (at least the web version) is missing juice. Add a little screenshake, blood and particle effects, this would improve the game feel by so much ;)

The gameplay is very interesting. I like the way you need to combo. I would have liked it if you could restart faster, especially when I started it was quite annoying to die at the third zombie and then have to wait for what seems like quite a while to be able to start your next try.

I like the graphics and audio, but the controls could have been a bit more polished in my opinion. It is very hard to play for long. It is a nice entry overall.

Fits the theme. Didn't got far I suck at this game.

Tried and tried but could not get a high score, one run I just used C and managed to keep dashing over and over.

The graphics are quite nice although the buildings could look a bit better. The zombies and hero look cool and the sounds/music are neat.

Love to see people using LibGDX!

Great work

Good game, realy fun.

Pretty interesting mechanic, but it's really hard to consistently land the jumps and stomps.

Does what it says on the tin. Simple gameplay but mechanics all seem to work without a problem. Good entry.

The graphics and audio were great and you had some interesting gameplay, but the thing I disliked, is that it took so long to restart...

good concept, art and music makes the game interesting to play. first i couldnt do the "x" properly once got used it is awesome to play. can improve on collision over zombies and player dies.
I am new to libgdx, you have done a great work with in the time..
