Cool fun game, this is what it must feel like running away from zombie with a side stitch going worst and worst :D The physics are very fun and the procedural generation is well made as well ! Slowly loosing control is so fun we almost went with the same idea at some point in the jam ^^ Anyway he're my highest score (damn you hidden rock behind a fence T_T): testzombie.png congrats !

Damn Abel is very unstable 😂 Fun and cute entry! The graphics were nice and the audio was fitting! unstableable.png this was my best score! I had fun, good job!

a fun game, a good mix of several that works well :D

Lol, it's like Human Fall Flat, meets Frogger, but with zombies...and washing machines, obviously. :) What's not to like! Nice art, nice music, nice grunts, nice flaily appendages! Very satisfying, and totally realistic, collision response when getting hit by a bus!

Nice little game, the graphics were nice and the wonky physics was cool to look at :D also Abel's annoyed noises when bumping were a nice touch. Only thing was I didn't know about the invisible boundaries, the game is in sort-of isometric view, but wants you to go forward, I was confused several times trying to run to the sides only to seemingly get bugged and stuck. I would suggest adding some semi-transparent wall so that it is clear, that you are hitting the level border :) Good game, had a little laugh which is quite rare

The graphic, gameplay and audio are fitting very well. Fun Game!

I liked it, the caotic and random games are always the best xD

@drunk-wizard we did try with semi-transparent boundaries, but it looked a bit weird. We also tried add a force to keep pushing you back when you get to far from away and that felt wrong. But we agree, there needs to be some indication that you are closing in on a boundary. Just not sure what.

Nice game :slight_smile:

I like the graphics, the music and the sounds. It was a hilarious contrast - you are running from brain-eating zombies in a sunny environment with cheerful music and the world around you didn't even notice there's an apocalypse out there :smile:

I too thought the controls are a bit wonky, I got stuck in seemingly random places. I had trouble going to the left in particular. If the controls felt smoother, I think I would play longer than I did.

Nice touch with the tiny bit of voice acting, that's always good to hear.

Great job overall!

poor guy, such an anti-hero :) I like it, it looks so damn funny and the soundtrack supports the mood perfectly.

What a fun game! I could spend hours playing.

I liked the graphics, and the sound too. The gameplay proposal to survive as long as possible is simple but very functional and fun.

Good job.!

245 Seconds up there?!? Hoooow :P I am @ 25max. Fun little game, but no way to regain health? :D gimme some power ups! good work!

Funny little Dawn of the Dead game~ (Probably not so funny for Abel ;) great procedural generated levels!

jackaljk 2021-10-07 20:28

This is fun, nice work! Procedural generation is spot on and animations are really funny. The cars stutter around a bit but you're surely aware of it. The real question is... why are people driving around like it's nothing on a zombie apocalypse?! And who left those washing machines around??? :P

What a challenging game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/gL5Jq5zIm84
