despite not being into soccer, I enjoyed myself. few zombies were hardly a problem and i won by making goals. it was still challenging. with many zombies, however, I found myself having only one guy left eventually. that'S when i realized "oh shit! I'm losing players...does the other team also lose players..?" and they did and i went "yes!" so ..eventually opposing team got eaten and I celebrated victory xD
I could see this being an anime...: D
Lol, this is the third zombie+soccer game I’m seeing. And one of them is my own game! Guess this is a popular theme ;-p

I'm going to be real: I really didn't enjoy this game, the A.I. was often times stupid, and zombies didn't really have an effect to the game. It was still a nice try :)

Nice game. Was really fun to play. Sound was simple, but effective. Shooting zombies is pretty satisfying as well. The AI has some flaws but that doesn't hinder the fun. Very good entry :D

@Efmi_ appreciate the honesty. This was the first time I tried making anything like this. The AI could definitely have benefited from more time and polishing :)

Congratulation for finishing this game and made it in Compo time.
Its mainly football then zombie, zombies do not limiting the player so much.
when i change the zombies to many (after first match was played with zombies: Few) in main manu it throws this message:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Error
assets/codebase/libraries/bump.lua:524: Item instance of class ball must be added to the world before getting its rect. Use world:add(item, x,y,w,h) to add it first.
Traceback

When I launched the game second time, I was unable to reproduce the crash.

@mAnimal Thanks for the error message!!! It seems the ball somehow managed to get destroyed? Not sure how this has happened.
I'm gonna roll out a patch as soon as possible!
Overall a fun little game, which fit the theme and seemed stable, with no bugs or glitches noticed. Football + Zombies for some reason seemed to be a very popular theme!
Fun little game! Good job.
Fun idea! I like the work you did on AI, a couple times there the opposing team was kicking my butt. Also appreciated that your teammates would also shoot zombies, took a little stress off my back!

nice idea)) well done) I don't like soccer but zombies are saving ereything))))
Nice idea, that was fun. I wish it had some more zombies running around to make things more hectic, but it was still good. Great job!

the game was fun but the zombies wern't a challenge, than I turned the zombies up to many, and the game really got fun, you had to actually pass and shoot the zombies, and was a lot of fun. Good game!

Quite good game , interest concept , but very horrible sounds ((change it please )) , zombies are too slow and weaka
Fun game, I enjoyed it. For me there is only one serious flaw: opposing team's AI not great, it's really easy to score a goal.
Pretty fun. I like the way you switch control to whichever of my characters has the ball. I did not understand the shooting mechanic. The shots didn't seem to do anything. Felt like it played mostly as a soccer game where you could shoot airguns with no effect. The sounds were appropriate and the passing and running the ball up and down the field felt natural.

It's an interesting game even if there are a lot of things that are not quite finished yet. For a first version, it is acceptable after the work in the AI remains what is the most problematic in my opinion.
Not really original, not "incompatible" and I am not a fan of the too pixelise graphic, but it work ! Like, i enjoyed playing it, and i was running back and forth to try to goal and beat my opposant ! It was fun and cranky and good ! So : good game ? Good game.
