The graphics are awesome.
The text-bubbles are a bit blurry in the beginning, but besides that die DOF effect is nice.

An option to customize the controls would be good.

Developer

Thanks a lot for your review and for your feedback ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป Yeah, I recognized it with the text box after submitting it. 

Customizing the input would be a good improvement, but time was my enemy in this game jam. ๐Ÿ˜‰

That was the sickest death sound

Developer

Yeah, I know what you mean. :) I was running out of time in the end and could not find appropriate sounds for it....

I think graphics is the strongest part of the game. We know that it was optimized for controler, but maping of keyboard controls could've been better. Two of us had to sit in an uncomfortable and awkward position to play this. Maybe move next time second controls to numpad?

Tried to play it a few times but couldn't succeed much. Don't know if it's just us or the zombie pace is off.

Yeah, the keyboard mapping isn't the best choice. Next time I will choose another one :-)
It's not optimized for the XBox360 controller, but that's the only one I have here, so other controllers would also work, but maybe with some different layout. 

To succeed you have to be fast and also you have really to shoot your way through all the zombies. While one player is reloading, the other has to take the lead.

how to jump/sprint with the girl?

Have a look at the game project page on itch: https://devplayrepeat.itch.io/the-escape

The controls are described there.
