I thought at first the blood was arrows and I avoided them. Gets very intense once you are surround by "Minions" :smile:

the music and atmosphere really contributed to the mood of the game. Well done

I got a score of 82! The shooting feels smooth and the gore effects add to the experience. I did think it was a bit weird that the gore effects were drawn on the camera, since it looks like they were drawn in global space.

I wasn't really sure what the point of the vaults were, since the enemies could just walk through the barrier. I also wish the camera was zoomed out a bit more, but maybe that was because I was playing the web version.

I'm not sure if this was intentional, but the enemy sprites reminded of minions, which might be a good thing since I was shooting them.

@doc-kaos @fakefirefly Thanks for playing! I did realize halfway through that the zombies looked like minions :smile: they were really inspired by the "nerds" from jetpack joyride

For some reason those enemy graphics combined with the sound and lighting make the thing super creepy haha. Well done! :D

Gameplay wasn't too fun. The shooting felt nice but only with the rifle and the shotgun. But the handgun didn't feel very fun to use. The background sounds of the reactor (?) or alarm was a little annoying. Got to smash 106 zombies though!

Nice game. The square character and zombies look very nice. It gets too hard for me pretty soon :(
