I hit space, I killed zombies, I ran around, figured out too late that I could rebuild walls, rebuilt some walls, got stuck in wall(?), frozen, assumed dead.

Probably pretty accurate to how my real life zombie apocalypse experience would go :D

I am not familiar with the Daleks game - is the point of the game to survive for as long as you can? Or are there other win conditions?

Using boids for zombie movement is cool - noticeable if you stand in a corner away from them as they flow around the castle like a flock of birds!

Yep, I didn't put any code in to avoid getting stuck in walls, that would have taken minutes I didn't have.

Some details on the Daleks game are here: http://www.nonanone.com/Daleks/ but this is a 2010 re-make of the 1984 classic which you can actually download here: https://macintoshgarden.org/games/daleks. loosely speaking, it's also a wave survival game, theres' no win condition, just more and more Daleks every wave.  I was planning on adding waves and day/night cycles, where surviving NPCs would feed you food (so incentive to keep them alive), but that would have overscoped it.

I think this would be pretty fun if you finish the fail state/gameplay loop. I also didn't find the rebuild mechanic until I let them wreck the castle. Good potential here since you can probably get depth from manipulating the BOIDS thing.

I really liked the pixel art style in this game. I can only imagine the type of game you'd make if you had longer than 100 minutes! Great submission.

This obviously has a lot of good ideas but perhaps the scope was too large for 100 minutes. I know that there is no end state but my player did get stuck in one of the walls basically breaking the game and, maybe I'm just stupid, but I couldn't figure out how to get close enough to attack the enemies without getting hit myself. I appreciate the sound in this game which many others are lacking and the art style is cohesive. Excellent job, especially with the boids AI.

all very good points. I haven't quite got the hang of scoping for 100 min games yet. but hopefully if there are more 10^2 jams, I'll be able to dial it in
