Quite a fun little game! Got a little confused when I switched from the pickaxe to the drill, but still had fun!

A lot of text only to get executed after the first turn.
I like the idea of forcefully loosing a card game however, it felt that the cards were a little too unbalance to make it a real challenge.
Dat ending tho
Quite fun, walls are a bit sticky and AIs could be a lot tougher. Good job!
A nice idea, controls were a bit difficult as you cannot move and fire in different directions. Camera could have been pulled back a little bit to remedy this.
Its quite fun to spam the heck out of the space-bar to achieve a mini-gun like attack.
Really interesting take on the theme! The time limits felt a little too short, but still fun!
Looks nice and its great to see a FPS game here.
However, I never encountered any enemies and quickly got lost in the woods with no way of finding civilization.
What an incredibly dark rendition of the theme!
The music felt a little too joyous for the tone of the game and the control system could use use a little improvement.
Otherwise its a really good game!
@thomas-lacroix I didn't have time to install the HTML 5 build module and upload it to my site. Currently working on that now.
Also I don't know how the heck I'm supposed to package the versions for Mac and Linux and didn't have time to look it up at the time so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
(I see what you did there smartypants.)

*mostly negative comments*
*score of 0 for fun*
"CONGRATULATIONS YOU SCORED 1ST PLACE"
*falls off desk* ____________________ All in all, brilliant idea and I'm slightly pissed I didn't come up with it myself.
Really great game! I loved the little arms. Some more levels and a some more puzzle mechanics and this could be a full fledged game!
Great idea! More (and randomized) sacrificial mechanics would probably benefit the game forcing the player to think through which one they pick; rather than just using a standard choice track.
(Thanks for fixing it btw!)
@berkin I used 1440x900 on a 59hz monitor.
I really liked the hand drawn graphics.
It was quite frantic and I felt the hitboxes were a bit too small.
I really enjoyed the quotes used in between each level; they add more emotion and a stronger sense of purpose to the plot.
Um . . . no one spawned for me. Had me plenty of train cars but no passengers around. (Let me know when it gets fixed and I'll update my comment.)
Really great music and graphics, it's a shame there's only three kinds of crowd members.
Really cute idea. Reminds me of that old but gold Cyanide and Happiness short.
One thing that may be a bug though, if you run over corpses you still take damage. This probably isn't a bug but certainly does feel like one.
Also a bit of invincibility time at the start and maybe when transitioning sides would help.
Nice, I enjoyed kicking those zombizards' butts.
I wasn't sure if it was a bug or a feature but, I did notice that the player would take damage every time you fired. ~~It looks like a bug but actually could completely be a feature because~~ it adds more depth to the gameplay by encouraging the player to make better shots to conserve health.
Edit: My bad, I seem to not be able to read apparently!
Really, really, cute! The enemies remind me of Monstercat.
My only complaint is that the game window is tiny with no option to enlarge it, mean you end up frequently clicking out of the game and get swarmed.
I really like the art, but after my first hat had to stop playing. I might have nightmares about this.
