It took me time to see I could rent my land. I was a greedy businessman and rent too much lands !! I think you should continue after the jam to improve the game, it's a good vampire survivor improvement and it has a potential

zombie splatter with odd coloured blood in it.

Very cool idea! I feel like with a few tweaks to money gain and polish this could be something great.

I like the title and the idea. It was a bit too hard for me, though. The concept is funny and I liked the idea of fighting a Zombie apokalypse by night and buying ground at day.

I could last till night 10. I realised too late that I have to use the renting mechanism, and the waves got too hard while all I could afford by then is refilling my health. However I didn't give up, tried again, so that means you found a really good idea. :) Maybe the day night switch could be a bit more immersive, more subtle. Thanks for making this game, enjoyed! :) Keep it up!

Fun game, I was too greedy too often and ran out of places to run I like the strategic choices that needed to be made

I liked the gameplay and how simple and at the same time grindy it is :D You did great man, amazing

This is such a fun game to play with! I genuinely stressed out when hordes of zombies and armored knights circle you and there's no way to run. Great job on creating such an enjoyable entry!

Title is great, and I like the twist of buying space in this type of game (and renting is a really good way to mix things up). Pretty fun trying to balance upgrades vs healing vs buying more room to move. Nice job!

Amazing game done in 3 days only ! There so much in it.

I found the balance a bit weird though, renting a lot, but not earning enough money for real upgrades. I feel like it would be better with more focus on renting mechanic (which is genius considering the theme) and less on difficulty progression that can be a real pain to balance properly.

Some sound design on shooting, hurting zombies, or menuing would be nice too !

Really impressive work !

(Tip : To avoid blurry pixel art assets, you should set the sprite "filter mode" to "Point (no filter)")

Balance could use some work i originally clicked on this because of the funny name but the game was overall pleasant and fun to play.

Very impressive for something done in 3 days. I had a lot of fun and I love the combination of strategy and survival. Maybe the enemies shouldn't gather if you go hiding in corner, cause it makes it a bit easy to blast them all. Great game, congrats!

This is a very addictive game! I've spend quite some time trying to bean my previous run. I feel like sometimes difficulty spikes quite harsh leaving no space for mistakes. Well done! :slight_smile:

Lol nice! Metal Slug legs? Had some fun here NGL

mar-zockmeister 2023-10-05 00:10

Very cool game, played it now multiple times because I wanted to find out the best strategy to survive long - made until night 16 oder 17 but it gets really tough. Really cool idea with buying ground and renting it. Also fitting music. I had the feeling the player gets sometimes stuck at the borders. But anyway, very good work! :smiley:

lou-bagel 2023-10-05 00:43

It took me forever to figure out how to rent land, which is the main unique mechanic - a game changer - which makes it a very interesting risk vs reward decision! Very clever! Nice!

anatol-dumitras 2023-10-05 09:25

This reminds me of older flash games that I'd play on armorgames or kongregate, which is awesome! A solid entry and great textures, mood and gameplay.

vlad-r 2023-10-05 09:28

Loved this concept! It really shows the power of compounding wealth.

The music kept me on my toes! The pacing of the game was really on point.

I enjoyed the game way more than I initially thought I would, and ended up playing several times.

mocadium 2023-10-05 09:29

Loved this game! Really like the renting mechanic, really is a great greed test! Keep going with this, a bit more polish and it could be an awesome full game :)

I like how you mixed the roguelike genre with some kind of management/strategy part. Pretty cool and it has a measurable impact on the gameplay. I also appreciated the depth of the game: multiple weapons, upgrades and enemies extend its longevity. A downside for me was the excessive grinding: I feel like it takes too much time and effort to make money, since I couldn't even afford the third weapons without heavily sacrificing the space. It's not a big deal, but personally I'd have gone with an easier "grinding curve", considering the average playtime for a jam game. Overall, I genuinely had fun and I think the concept has potential! Kudos to the team!

joshua-reumann 2023-10-05 09:56

Nice Game. It was satisfying to play and progress

scoobydoo 2023-10-05 11:17

So Funny game, +1

Really fun game and neat idea. The economy system is either extremely punishing or I have to git gud, both are posibilities.

mrscom 2023-10-08 16:34

cod zombies for mobile?) I actually like that there's a lot of content in the game.

noagard 2023-10-12 13:30

Very fun game!

egormnc 2023-10-15 19:30

I liked the game and it’s interesting, keep it up

dan-str 2023-10-17 20:14

I found the game incredibly captivating. The concept is truly impressive. Keep up the excellent work, and you'll undoubtedly reach a high level of professionalism
