I enjoyed the driving controls. It took a few tries to get the hang of them, but felt fun to powerslide around corners. I wish the barrel color was a little more distinguishable from the zombies; occasionally it was hard to see them through the hordes :smile:
@chris-covert That is a good point, I wish we had more time to fix the barrels not being very visible. Glad you liked it!
had fun playing !!! good game and very intense.. good music and good art.. the mechanics were also great.. overall very good game
Overall great job. It's very satisfying running over the zombies and the drifting is very fun. However, I did find it hard to keep track of the engine heat. It's hard to notice the tiny text when focusing on driving.
Very cool! Mostly enjoyed car controls and sounds.
@timothy that's a very good point, perhaps some sort of gauge near the car would've been more visible
Nice game! I had some trouble with the controls but it could be me. I feel like the car steered much even if I just pressed A or D for a very short time. But the overall mood of the game is great and it felt very satisfying!
@nilolo yeah, the drifting takes some getting used to, but I think it's fun once you do :smile:
Simple concept but satisfying and fun to play! A longer music track would have been nice because it feels too repetitive. I would have liked the play area to be more open.
Nice job!
Good game! Very fun! But...i think its not a theme. Every 10 seconds must be do something. Yes, you have timer with max = 10 seconds and you lose when timer = 0, but its not a theme. This is my subjective opinion. I gave you good marks, except Theme, sorry. But u created good game.
@izhvaryag Thanks! Yeah, I admit the theme could've been stronger in this one, but this was the only thing that came to mind
Really fun and polished! The soundtrack is super catchy, loved it too. In this kind of games losing momentum when crashing is the worst part, your game suffers a bit from this but not much, I think you managed to make it feel good enough. Maybe the car could have bounced a little bit more. The zombies felt somewhat unncessary gameplay wise, but I still loved them because of how much they do for game feel. I agree the theme isn't too strong, but I'm not as critical as the previous guy. I mean the ten seconds are there, they have a role. It's a theme that's easy to fit with common tropes, certainly not my favorite one.
@jackaljk Thanks! Good point with the car not bouncing very much, I completely forgot about it and it would've made the game a bit easier. I'm glad you liked it :smile:
The idea is nice. The graphics are nice but the camera is in my opinion too far away from the gameplay. Flipping the game and making the car go sideways could be an improvement (if you don't want to target mobile later).
The first few runs I didn't even realized there is text in the upper right corner. Due to the focus necessary to control the car I never found the time to check for the timer or the multiplier even after I noticed it's there. May you could make this two values more visible to the player.
Also it's quite hard to catch up if the car crashed into a wall, due to this I basically stopped playing and waited for the game over once I crashed.
Oh boy was the old clunker hard to drive! But got used it it. Really manic feel put out by the music!
The zombs were everywhere, but I got home safe.
Would have been nice to get a little extra thing to do / hit (explosions? guns?)
Music track really sets the mood. The water barrels felt a little too small, but the controls were a good amount of difficult to master. They made good maneuvering feel like something I earned.
Haha what a fun time I had mowing down zombies >:) It took a few tries to get the "drift" of it, and it was stressful trying to hit each barrel but made me wanting to come back to try to do better each time! Great job :)
Good job ! I love the drifting zombie killing, what great idea ! The controls are a bit heavy, but i guess its for the drift
I won! It took me a while to figure out those blue things increased my time limit, but once i did nothing could stop me!
Let's kill thoses bastards !!!! I enjoy driving with those monster in the road.
BTW: I think the reverse rotation is inverted
The driving is very satisfying. Took me a couple of tries to learn how to, but after that it was not a problem. I whish there was a more random map with wider turns for drifting, but overall very fun!
Really cool graphics - the little animations and details were great on the zombies. The driving was pretty satisfying especially because driving around like a maniac hitting walls was rewarding. My only problem was my "current status" was in the top right corner in tiny text so it's hard to know how close you are to overheating. Other than that though great job!
I had less success with the driving than others. I like the idea though, it's satisfying when I'm not bumping a wall to a complete stop.
