Really interesting to play.
Simple, interersting love it)
Art, sound and music all give the game a coherent mood, good job! Really felt like a zombie apocalypse.
After a while i wasn't sure if I was supposed too just get to the next level, or if I was supposed to clear all the zombies. Since ammo is scarce, I just avoided all the zombies until the next boss. But the levels just kept on repeating? Mondays I guess :)
@parkuhrmd levels will repeat forever until you clear all the zombies, boss as well :D you can choose to just run through the levels but that wont help you xD
Love the music and pixel art! Nice job :D It was a bit hard to see where to go since the doors blend in a bit with the environment but it's easy to get a feel for it after a while!
When he said **"why always a zombie apocalypse why not a unicorn apocalypse"** I felt that

idk where the car is but the music is sooo chill that even the zombie coworker stopped to listen
I got stuck at the parking lot and couldn't find a way to progress any further :-(
The graphics are really nice though and I liked the concept. Well done!
Btw my antivirus had some complaints about the exe file, it was quite a challenge to run the game :-) I don't know if it's something you can fix.
Great jam entry! I like the counter of the amount of infected. I don't quite know why, it just really adds to the fun of the game seeing your impact on the infection.
I think the gameplay gets a little bit repetitive at some point. Just because I was curious I kept playing until infected hit 0. After that there were still more zombies even after the counter hit zero, the next time you switch levels the game crashes.
Another thing that hampered the fun a bit is it was hard to discern the difference between walls and paths, because they are both flat. Early in the game I spent some levels running circles because the way I needed to go looked like a wall.
The art looks good, the mood is funny. All in all I like it.
Very nice mood, music and graphics!
@ondy1985 Not sure about the exe, it's a basic unreal engine windows build. I'll take a look at it for sure!
@jorim There's supposed to be an end game when you reach zero. I guess you just got the crash instead :(
Hi there ! Liked the mood a lot, gg ! I had some issues understanding you had to kill all the zombies (Why ? your character is a random salaryman). I only got one gun and ran out of ammo, so there was a dissonance between scarcity of ammo and the main objective. It really felt we had to run to go for the car (Since the character talks about the car, it can be misleading)
@beardmage hi ! the zombie counter is there so you know how close you are to the final level. you get the final level once you've killed all the zombies. and your car. thank you for playing the game!!
default monday i think) good game)
I love this style of pixel art. And game plays. The game is quite simple, but not without a challenge. Good atmosphere!
liked the art and have a nice time. Good job.
i don't know if you can find another gun but i didnt find xd and the infected number don't fit in my monitor. Good looking game and loved the music :smiley:
I liked the mood and groundhog design of the game. The dialog was funny. Also loved that you can just avoid most zombies like any sane person would. But after I read the comments I realized that you have to kill them to progress further:)
Nice job. I loved the mood and the music. You could nevertheless improve this just by having a keyboard key for shooting instead of the mouse button. Thank you for your game
Really nice to play, both chill and exciting somehow. There seems to be a little glitch with the zombies' death animation, where they can still hit you after the animation has begun. Well done!
@kmoor UI was never our strong point :(
It's okay @pfs just keep learning and make more great game just like this game :D
If you put on window mode you can see and actually in our game the ui is bugged too :D
Zombie Sounds were pretty loud compared to the music and I died when there where only 17 Zombies left. Then replayed the entire game to see the ending ... health packs, checkpoints, anything like that would've been nice to have. I try to not let this influence the rating tho.

Had fun. Love the guitar track and the mood. Gameplay could use more interesting enemies and changing environment. Felt a bit like a grind to get all 100 :cold_sweat: Also, I found that my melee range was significantly better when attacking enemies to the left than to the right. Got easier after figuring that out.
Thanks for the game!
I loved the mood that the music and all set. The art worked really well with that as well although I was at some times confused and I was sad to see being all the way reset when I died
Nice choice of music style, she puts me in a very chill mood for fighting zombies :)
Your pixel art style is super cool and nice, I especially liked all of those small touches, like a face mask on player character, or his suitcase attack animation.
Gameplay is fine enough, I only hope you build on that aspect a bit, because right now it is kinda basic. And... I kinda found music to be breaking mood of your game.
Hey matey, thanks for submitting your game to stream! I really enjoyed it, and hope the feedback helped! Here's the vod if ya wanna rewatch;

Cool game, but it was necessary to diversify the gameplay somehow. And the intelligence of the zombies is also a little weak.
In that suit I felt a bit like Jason Statham, kicking all that zombie asses. As someone mentioned before different enemies probably would have varied the gameplay a bit. I also tried to hit some cars, hoping to destroy them and get something useful (es. health kit). Overall a nice entry (I liked the pixel art). Well done.
OMG, what a incredible soundtrack!! If you picked, nice choice! If you did it, well done! It's really enjoyable and kinda reminds me the mood of "LoU". The jokes are well placed, the gameplay is fun, but unfortunatly i couldn't find my car haha. Great game, wish you the best.
@lrvstudios All the art and audio is original :) Thanks for playing!
A very funny little game. Liked it. Well done.
First of all good job on having submitted a game. I had fun shooting the zombies, though I did get stuck at the parking lot. I did not know if I had to shoot all the zombies, find the car or find some door. I did run out of ammo, I was two bullets short so I was not able to kill the last zombie in this level. Second, I liked the simple graphics, you two did a good job on that front. The music fits quite well with the general mood too :) Lastly, I suggest that you maybe use the first level as a tutorial or guide of some sort, so the players know what to do or expect.
edit: So I went back and replayed the game. I was suspecting I was missing something, and ofc I did not read your instructions for the controls XD (this is on me). In any case, I found the door and from there kept going.
A few remarks: - The game gets a bit repetitive after some time, though I understand that in a game jam there is only so much you can do. - I noticed that the zombies do not see you unless you enter a certain radius, this makes sense, but this made it too easy to kill some of them as I could snipe them from far. Maybe impose a greater number of bullets to kill if you are outside that radius. It's good that you made the zombies quit the chase when the player gets too far. - It was also a bit strange that a kill needs 4 hits with the briefcase or 4 bullets. Maybe melee attacks should be weaker ? These are small changes but they add some flavor to the mix. - Same remark about the radius for the boss. I shot him with ten bullets, I did not need to move.
All in all I really enjoyed playing. And I hope you keep working on the game and perhaps develop the story further. Though the zombie apocalypse theme has been present since forvever I found the attitude you imbued into the main character to be funny. What he says rises a lot of questions that I would like to see answered. And this is a sign of a game with good potential.
Nice job! Running in circles for eternity until I realised that I need to kill zombies, not outrun them :) Somehow (don't know if it is the bug or something wrong with my system), when I open the game it also opens steam VR application and connects to my VR headset which loads my GPU to 100% :D I liked the visuals and gameplay (missed a aiming with mouse though), music created great atmosphere too.
As promise, I finally had time to play your game on stream :) Here is a link to the correct place in the video: https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=Sx1MQ445u7k&t=1220s
Worst monday ever :smirk: But very cool game overall, just when I was complaining a bit too much about not having ammo for my gun, a zoombie dropped some.
I enjoyed it! Well done :)
