This is it. This is THE best game in this jam. Everyone else go home. It's perfect. controls are as they should be, the zombies explode and fly away, the arsenal of weapons is well thought of, their one life hit is perfect, the music's a bop, and the graphics are amazing, especially with the particle effects at hand. I loved everything about this game, it plays beautifully on the just-one-more-turn-esque kind of game. Well done dude!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The zombies in this game explode when they die, and can cause other zombies to die, and so on. As more and more zombies appear over time, things get chaotic pretty quickly.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Code, music, 3D models, animations and the music were all created by myself.
I took some sound effects that I bought before.

I had a blast playing, your unique mechanic was simple, but very effective. The game is very polished in all regards and looks/sounds pleasant. I really think this game is up there
Really great submission!
Quite apocalyptic which is very fitting to the theme. The graphics are simply beautiful. Everything was really well designed, I think the bullets can be slightly increased in size. The audio was really well made! I really liked the variety of the guns and power ups, I think a little timer would be helpful to signify how long it will last. I didn’t have a controller to aiming was a bit difficult with the keyboard controls but overall I really enjoyed the game!
I hope you get a chance to check out our game as well.
That was great! Thank you so much for including controller support, my gamepad has been sitting uselessly for the past week. I play my Game Jam games on an older system, and the flame thrower in particular caused a lot of lag. Also, this is controller-specific feedback, but I found aiming rather difficult when I had full 360-degree rotational freedom. Maybe a little aim correction would help? I understand the desire to force the player to face the direction that they are moving, a twin-stick shooter would have had a very different difficulty level.
Visuals were great, the audio wasn't too repetitive, and the particles, effects, and general polish were top-notch. This was probably my favorite game of the jam so far.
Thank you very much :)
Very valuable feedback. I was thinking about making the bullets bigger, or making the character even slower if you just move the stick gently, but a bit of auto-aim might help too, I'll definitely try that out.
Lagging is a problem even on relatively good hardware when there are a lot of zombies on screen, so I definitely need to optimize some more :D (that's also why there's no webbuild, btw. That was even worse performance-wise).
Glad you liked the game though!
Simple approach yet very fun! I love it! reminds me of Binding of Isaac. Graphics are really awesome too
Fantastic game, extremely polished! Had a blast playing, killing zombies was really satisfying. Good job, amazingly done! :)
Let me say It!! This game is super cool.... The music was good the gameplay was good no framedrops.
Only complain is would have liked the gun target to be controlled by mouse but that aside the game is so good...
Great work!! Kudos!! :D
fun and entertaining game...I have some fps drop on pc but not a big problem... I like to see more chaos in arena with more chaotic music and visuals when you for example burn the zombies
Really fantastic game with fun powerups! mouse and keyboard would be much easier if the player aimed at the cursor, but aside from that fantastic job
One of the best jam games
I am #4 at the moment with score 396 800 (my third attempt)
It would be nice to know when power-up is about to end, especially spikes-invincibility
Only 4 ratings?!
Nah this game too underrated!
Its really well polished, there r so many weapons to interest u wid and the audio is just chef's kiss
Awesome game! 5/5
Really cool game! I even pluged my controller in and it really feels much better. Game feels realy polished. I especialy enjoyed the amount of different weapons, and this fantastic soundtrack!
Online leaderboard in jam game is also pretty impressive (I got to #6)
maybe consider checking out my game too :)
Probably the most underrated game of this jam! I had so much fun on the game, it starts pretty simple, but the quantity of different upgrades/guns you can get makes it so good! It even has a online high score! (At least it looked like it) Great game, it was a bit hard to aim diagonaly on the keyboard, but the game is great!
Really fun and cool game, the only thing that i wish was better is controls.
