This was pretty fun, I like the number of options of zombies you get, and the music is a realy good fit, frantic but fun. It would be great if the healthbars a red background so you could see how much health has been lost (I couldn’t tell if my zombies wer working at first!). Great work!

I am Survivor is a game with a really cool concept, is where the wave is you, sending zombies one by one to human shooter. Each round you get new zombie choices to upgrade and depending on the enemy, you have variety of strategies to use. I'd love to see full version of this game!

Inversed Vampire Survivors! Great idea and well executed! I loved wiping out all the heroes, I just wish there was more of them to defeat :) I think it could do with keys to select the zombie type, and more 'puzzle' like levels, but I appreciate this was a short game jam. I think you're onto something here, well worth exploring further outside the constraints of a jam.

Hey thanks. We had a bunch of ideas that we had to leave behind because of time constraints. So the plan is to riff on the starting idea, add some quality of life features like keyboard shortcuts, more content ect. Although I'll definitely need to refactor the code some what. Thanks for playing.

Fun twist on a classic tower defense game. I like that you try something new, and you’ve been able to add a good variety of content and levels. I also appreciate the tutorials. I won

Adding keyboard shortcuts to select the type of zombie (e.g. 1,2,3,4) would help make the game easier to play. I also think the players move and die too quickly, and the game becomes a mouse clicking game. The faster you click, the more skilled you are. However, making it slower, and maybe add some extra tactical elements in both placement and which unit to use would help elevate the game. All in all a good concept, well done.

Nice twist on tower defense. I did have a couple of issues that made it difficult to play. It was tricky to move fast enough to place different types down. Also, my mouse kept getting locked in place for a split second when placing a zombie, preventing me from spread them out to try and distract enemies like the sniper.

Really fun! The twist on the classic rogue likes game where you are not the hero but the monsters chasing him it's clever. Music is addicting! Very well done!
