Man, this is just the "why haven't I thought of this" kind of game! It was fun playing this! Maybe I would just make the shooter part feel more "heavy" - more bullets, more rapid fire, more zombies (one-shot kill?). But still the best LD game I have played so far.

akand 2018-04-27 10:14

Very interesting idea, but I found some big bugs like disappearing or multiplying helicopter and zombies were stacking on invisible walls... I believe that if you had more time this game would be more developed :)

andreas-roschal 2018-04-27 10:16

Very innovative idea. I really like it. Found one bug/problem while playing: If you stack up barricades centered up to the defence line, helicopters will start spawning non-stop because of instant collision with already placed objects.

Such a fun game! Really great use of the theme! Definitely one of the better games out there! Well done! PS. Just a tip - go try out a bunch of other entries and give some ratings and feedback to others. It helps others improve their games and learn - AND you will get a hell of a lot more ratings if you are rating other games. It's a pity to see such a great entry with only 2 ratings. You definitely deserve so many more

justin 2018-04-27 10:23

Also, I agree with @honey - I would love to see a bit more "bullet hell" like shooting if you decide to develop it further. some weapon upgrades like multi-shot or rapid fire. Would add so much to the game. But again, incredible entry for the jam!

darkwing00duck 2018-04-27 10:24

Hello,@honey .Thanks for feedback! I liked your ideas, next time I will make it heavy🤘

amour-du-pain 2018-04-27 13:41

Great concept, there's a lot of potential in this game ! Perhaps one of the best use of the theme I've seen so far. Of course, there's a lot of negative things to say, for example the fact the game is too easy, and has an end (why not just unending waves of zombies spawning more and more until the inevitable death of the player ?), but I still really liked it !

let-off-studios 2018-04-27 13:46

What a trip! This communicates the theme exceptionally well. Polished graphics and mechanics. I could even turn the pieces like in Tetris! Had a fun time with this.

I'm grateful it was playable in browser too, since this is a nice game for a coffee break. Nice job!

mahdi-daneshvar 2018-04-27 14:14

the Tetris barricades mixing with zombie shooting is a very good idea fitting with theme very well. shooting is fun but could be more juicy. Also nice water effects (am i the only one to notice it :)

thecze 2018-04-27 16:10

Nice idea, had to quit the game after a seemingly infinite amount of choppers spawned.

mathiouza 2018-04-27 16:15

Ahahahah ! ^^ I found a cool bug ! If we do not have space to let the helicopter places the pieces, there are an hundred of these which come x)) Cool concept, This is really great I think !

Cool game, keep coding :)

jamfella 2018-04-27 17:54

Zombies meet Tetris. How convenient :) For some reason chopper multiplied after final piece was placed. Nice entry.

goffmog 2018-04-27 21:56

Really nice idea, I had the same bug that some others reported but found the game really well planned and executed overall!

jyrms 2018-05-01 12:35

This was awesome! Loved the combination of mechanics!

eduwhan 2018-05-01 16:26

Combine two incompatible game genres: Check. Found it tough to play. Very good entry.

lagpu 2018-05-01 16:58

That was a really cool idea! Good job!

wassim 2018-05-01 17:22

Amazing and cool idea! I like how you handled the theme, Good job!

awesomealliterationalliance 2018-05-01 20:35

The game was a little bit easy to win, but nonetheless pretty entertaining. Well done, keep it up! :)

mandarad 2018-05-01 22:18

Really great take on the theme. I enjoyed that the themes were actually at odds with each other, and that if you were shooting two well, your barricades would build up to much and such. Overall great job. :)

bryceltaylor 2018-05-02 00:05

Generally great!

I will say that I wish you could control the debris helicopters with WASD in addition to the arrow keys. I'm playing on a laptop with a track pad and I had to cross my hands in order to play comfortably. It's well executed, though, and the graphics are nice.

Good job!

floata-1 2018-05-02 00:32

awesome game lotta fun kinda hard to see the tanks but all in all good entry

veryeviltomato 2018-05-02 02:21

Really neat idea! And a pretty original one too, like most games in this LD this year, lots of multitasking to get the job done here!

aaron-nemoyten 2018-05-02 05:51

That was satisfying! Great concept, good execution. I want more of this! It would be a great candidate to expand (add upgrades maybe?) and put on Kongregate or a similar portal.

My only complaint was that sometimes it was hard to read, visually, what was coming down from the helicopter at any given moment.

larzan 2018-05-02 08:23

Awesome idea, love the combination of the mechanics, nice style and setting also, sound, gfx, everything good, had fun playing it :)

djeycreations 2018-05-02 09:46

Zombie Tetris? A good one! ^^

cyhzzz 2018-05-02 13:16

The idea is great,good one!

floc 2018-05-02 14:25

That's really a great idea you get there ! :) I really enjoyed playing your game. Congrats!

maffew 2018-05-02 15:44

Very nice idea, fitting of the theme! I had a lot of fun :)

gatinmnsok 2018-05-02 16:03

Cool idea, sometimes a bit difficult to see what block you have and where you are placing it. But good idea and good execution.

honest-dan 2018-05-02 22:04

I enjoyed the combination, feels they did have a negative impact on each others game play, and your natural instincts. The slight downside I found was that there was no reward for getting a "line", however, I cannot think how you would have rewarded it and it looked sensible. I basically ended up having my stack grow up and up since lines didnt clear. I think the idea was to leave the zombies alive longer so they clear lines for you, but by then you'd already built up high and the problem snowballs. I did find it hard to see the shape under the helicopter too. Was fun to find myself struggling to multitask too :D

bryyrt 2018-05-03 02:01

This game is awesome. Tetris zombie defense is a great idea that I would have never thought of. I like how the barriers will help as well as hurt you, so it has some interesting strategy.

wendel-scardua 2018-05-03 03:19

Nice game :)

draklaw 2018-05-03 23:00

Well, this combination sure works better than I expected. Good game. The only problem is that the chopper makes it hard to see the tetramino sometimes.

inusun 2018-05-04 01:04

What a great game! It sure does get hard towards the end when your screen start filling up with barriers.

wdebowicz 2018-05-04 17:42

The idea and how you use the theme is great! It was fun to win the game!

mau 2018-05-04 19:48

The game is greeat. Very well applied mechanics. I would add a random running zombie to complicate things more.

rs11s21n 2018-05-05 13:03

it's like "i make the game about zombie were player can shoot from machine gun and throw junk in zombie horde!" it sound good and cool but... i think you need change some little tetris mechanic because it's some little strange when helicopter can't throw car if have something on his path)

cristiano-m-garcia 2018-05-05 18:13

Good job! Cool game!

I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.

I hope you continue with the project.

kobrar 2018-05-05 23:07

I love the idea! Amount of content in the game is obviously small right now, but I really want this to be further developed! Best of luck.

jk5000 2018-05-06 08:15

A super interesting little game, and the game is fun to play. The idea is super good, and the graphics are very well made. Overall a really good LD game.

weirdybeardyman 2018-05-06 11:26

Really great, great concept that really well combines two incompatible genres. Fells fairly polished and complete.

mic-matrix91 2018-05-06 13:17

Very nice idea! I like the graphics, sfx and the game mechanics. In my opinion the helicopter and the propellers movement are a bit confusing and, despite the opacity, it's not always clear to see the block shape.. maybe you could use another way to carry the blocks, for example a crane. However very good, funny and challenging game!

invader 2018-05-06 15:21

kudos for innovation! A fresh approach in gameplay, that bwt works quite nicely as a local multiplayer. Good job! :helicopter:

yaniv 2018-05-06 18:42

A really good idea !! I would be happy if it was more difficult

bbaf 2018-05-07 07:10

Nice combination of genres, but the web version is a little bit laggy for me. Additional Windows build may fix this issue. Great job, anyway!

weekend-panda 2018-05-08 13:42

Nicely done! I lost because I built too many barriers, ha ha. Didn't realize there was a penalty for that. :) Anyway, good work overall, and neat concept!

masterkrepta 2018-05-10 00:34

Well done! I love the little details in this map, and this is certainly a unique way to play tetris for sure.

fylipp 2018-05-11 16:21

Great combination of genres in a polished game. Good work!

tigerj 2018-05-12 15:24

https://www.twitch.tv/videos/260564114?t=02h08m05s Loved it I like the balance mechanic the more I think about it of not killing everyone just enough to let them deplete the blocks while you place them. It's a fun game. I also like how hard it is to make out the tetris pieces. all the art and sound is great. well done.
