Great game, it reminds me of Boxhead: the zombie war. It's an old game I used to play online. (R.I.P. Flash Games)

Good job on it!

The game was fine, but not very fun to play. There was no sound at all, which greatly brought down my experience. It wasn't very straight-forward either, because right in the beginning I was thrown into countless zombies which... I couldn't even kill without grabbing all the five coins super-quickly and grabbing the damage upgrade before the enitre hordes came. A tutorial would therefore have been very useful, and it should have been a lot easier. Sounds are basically necessary for this type of game.

Developer

Yes sadly only in the download version is music ant thanks for the feedback I will balance the game!

The visuals and pixel art are great. That was some good use of bloom. The animation would have made the game a lot better. Also, zombies had a lot of health. It gave the feel of Days Gone how the zombies were coming after the player. Thanks for this game!

Please take some time to play and rate my game as well. I would really appreciate it! Thanks!!

The sounds are nice and you implemented a lot of things, but the gameplay could definitely be improved, it is too easy. Also it would be great if I saw in-game how much the upgrades cost. Good job though :)

Nice effort! 1:40:10 Zombie Killer video review!

Nice job for your first jam! Some feedback:

  • At first, I thought the turrets were allies, maybe you can change the color of their bullets
  • A group of zombies can have trouble squeezing through tight spaces, making them easy to abuse
  • This one is just my taste (probably), continuous shooting by holding mouse button might feel better and satisfying.

Overall, pretty solid. The sound effects and music are good too :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback

Nice job! I enjoyed playing this quite a bit, I liked the neon aesthetic and the sound effects worked quite well. I would have enjoyed seeing a more gradual increase in difficulty, as opposed to so many enemies spawning immediately! One last thing is that I didn't always shoot at my mouse position, occasionally the aim would be quite a bit off, making it difficult to kill some enemies.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I will remake the game and make the spawn system better so its more fun.

Nice little game....I had fun shooting the zombies...but I don't think that the restart and return to menu buttons are working...at least not for me

Developer(+1)

Restart should work, but at the last 4 houers of the Jam i hab technic problems so i couldnt make a main menu. So lesson learned: Better time management. And thanks for playing the game and thanks for the nice feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Fun game! It would be nice to be able to just hold down the LMB to shoot it really starts to hurt the fighter to click so much. Geat work! Keep it up! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks! And yes its a bit too painful :D

Submitted

Hey cool game :D It was a bit hard for me tho :/ My feedback would be that this game needs sound effects particles explosion etc. its too dull for a topdown shooter. Other than that i think its a pretty good game well done :D

Note : I would be happy if you can check out my game as well :d

Developer

Thanks for the feedback. In the download version is music.

This game needs more polish. (Character/enemy animations, particle effects, etc.) But it was a cool game! Nice job on your first game jam game!

Submitted(+1)

I have played the web version of your game. It’s a really cool game, I like the art, gameplay. Good job!

P.S.

That’s really nice that you spawn zombies.

Developer

Thanks for the nice feedback!

Submitted(+1)

I like the visuals, its very nice! But there is no sound effect, which is kinda necessary, And it gets a bit tough tho, there could be different modes(Easy, medium and tough ) for the next update! Sound effect would have given a better feeling! But great job! Do fix them all in the next update

Developer(+1)

Sadly in the Web version is no music but in the download version are music and Soundeffect. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

okay!

Very cool game! I really liked the visual, simple but very effective. Gameplay was fun and I think with a few tweak it can be even better. I like the zombie swarm but I think it was spawned too soon, maybe just a few waves of zombie to get the player used to the game first then come the swarm would be really nice. 

But overall, this is a very fun game! Well done! 

Developer

Thanks! And i am working now on the game and will balance it better.

Submitted(+1)

Cool game! I would prefer if the enemies spawned a little slower, but the game is really fun and polished!

Submitted(+1)

Cool little game! It gets intense FAST, haha. The swarm of enemies seem to come out of nowhere, but it's a fun challenge. I'd recommend making the HP bars more noticeable. Maybe by not rotating them with the enemy bodies. Not sure how to best adjust, but it took me a while to notice I was damaging them because it blends in with their design. Overall, a fun, fast-paced game though!

Thanks for the nice feedback!

It's fun. I like the graphics.

Developer

Thanks!

I see the effort though the game is a bit barebone right now. More sound effects and better implementation would go a long way.

Developer

Thanks. Yes sadly there are no sound effects and music in the Web version but in the download version there are sound effects and music.

Submitted

So I thought about it again. I just cant figure out the connection to the theme. Can you help me out?

Developer

Yes, my idea was you can play the game normal but if you want to be stronger you have to by upgrades but less upgrades mean more points for killing. If you kill a zombie with no upgrades you get 100 points if you have 1 speed upgrade for example you get 95 points each kill.

Submitted(+1)

Did you implement it?

Developer (2 edits)

Yes i did but there is a bug with the damage upgrade you can only update it when you have exactly 5 coins if you have 6 it wont work. And every Upgrade costs 5 Coins but the laser costs 50 Coins.

Submitted

Two stars for effort then!

Looks like you have deleted the submission. Is this https://dosui.itch.io/zombie-killer-web the reupload?

Developer

Thanks for the reminder. I didn't make the game public, but the WebGL version dont work there only on this page https://dosui.itch.io/zombie-killer-web. Hope you have fun!

I see, compression bug, it's weird that Unity didn't fix it yet.

Developer

Yes thats weird and sadly my second build that work (https://dosui.itch.io/zombie-killer-web)  finished 5 minuts too late.
