Nice game. Very decent visuals, the main menu art looks cool! The gameplay mechanics also feels nice, perfectly matching the Jam theme and actually harder than I thought. You have to concentrate and plan your moves because the time is very limited. Also after reaching the shoot spot there should be enough room to throw the ball before zombies hit you. It would be also cool to add some sort of coop (back-up friend who will clear the way for you), or maybe zombie-enemy opponent who will haunt you down :) But of course it's time consuming and this result are more than enough. Well done!
Довольно сложная, как по мне. Время давит.
Исполнение и идея - хороши: вы сделали маленькую, но законченную игру :thumbsup_tone2:
Zombie sports are the best! I especially like the art and artstyle! This game gets hard really fast though. Is it even possible to score after quarter 2? I also find scoring 3 points are easier than 2. Good job on this solid jam entry!
It's a nice idea and your art looks great, if a little gruesome! But I did begin to find it quite frustrating to play. The collision did not always feel quite right with the zombies where my play would unpleasantly explode whilst I'm dodging between them but to my eye I was not touched. That became quite annoying - I would also personally like it if when you die if you are in the middle of a shot the ball released from whereever you currently had the marker so theres a chance you can at least get the points :) But honestly the worst thing for me was that basket ball sound on constant loop and not quite in time with the player - it began to really get me XD
BUT in saying all that I'm only being critical because I feel this could be really good - I think you've done a great job for the time you had and would love to see this polished out and refined a little! I think its a fun game!
Art direction: top notch (with only exception being the ball flying animation which is more of a programmer thing). Sound design: could be improved massively, especially the repeating trippling sound - would be better to leave it out in this case. Gameplay: super nice idea, could've been better implemented. The timer is too fast, there shouldn't come more zombies in the next round if I didn't survive the last one. Also the fighting mechanics should be more fleshed out. This game idea has a lot of real potential overall, good job!
I really liked how dynamic the game is and it looks great too!
Good idea, and good realisation, but very hard (I reached 15 vs 21, but with one 3 points totally by chance from a long distance). As said, zombies should not be more when the player was eaten the last time. Or/and maybe the number of zombies should depend on the number of them killed the last time.
Heya, cool game! Finished normal mode on my first try, but the late-game did feel pretty punishing. Basically, had I not scored a ton of points in the first half, it woulda been a lot harder. Would love playing a full version of this, with different types of enemies, several playable characters with different abilities etc. :)
Gameplay, art, sound are all solid and make up a great entry. Great job!
Hey, good entry :3
You picked a nice scope for a jam and handled it pretty good!
One thing I want to mention about the audio - desynchronized ball sound looks a bit awkward.
I earned 40:6 in the easy mode. Lost in the normal one, but there was an epic moment - 3 point ball reached the hoop on last second when character was already dead. XD
Nice entry! The art of your game is very good :) The sound effects could be improved a lot and that would make a huge difference. Really cool experience nevertheless.
The game is a good mix of genres. It is fun to shoot zombies with a ball) Please pay attention there are a couple of glitches: sometimes the players start to throw a ball all the time without me pressing LMB, and at the very left edge he doesn't respond to D key to move him right.
Overall nice entry!
Nice entry! Kinda like mine, mixing soccer and zombies. Wanna check out my video?

You know, I still prefer classic basketball. This is my favorite sport, so I try not to miss the sports matches of my favorite teams. I also decided to try my hand at sports betting. I've found a lot of useful basketball tips here https://takebet.ke/betting-tips/over-under-total/basketball and I think I have a good chance of getting a good betting result.
