As a math teacher I heartily approve of this game! The stress of the incoming zombies had me fumbling a couple of quick maths calculations but that made it really fun :D Great game!

I think the strategy behind shooting and typing the quick answer to the problem and shooting again is a pretty interesting and unique mechanic. Nice job on the game!
Great work, loved the blend of quick typing and it added a lot to the gameplay loop!
I think some music and more levels would make for a nice release to teach maths.
Super interesting mix-up of math and shooter. Took me a second to figure out how it worked - I probably wouldn't survive that apocalypse lol
Fun and interesting take on the theme. Gave me tux-typing kind of vibe . Well done ;)
definitely a unique concept for a game. took me a long time to figure out what to do exactly but I figured it out. the art is well done. the sounds really add to the atmosphere of the game. UI is cool and doesnt take up much space of the game and still easy to read. Also felt like zombies weren't really the enemies. IT WAS MATH :D
One thing I encountered that I would like to point out was when I died the zombies feeding on you sound kept playing even after restarting.
Funny enough, this way of shooting is probably a more accurate representation of what aiming feels like in real life then if it was just point-and-click
Haha! I think we should try this IRL. We'll all be maths genius this way :)
Never before would I think of someone combining zombie survivor with math. Great job with this one!
Would make a cool learning game, really unique take on the zombie survival.
Interesting take on the survival wave genre. I hope you are both good at math and aiming.
I think it's a great game, especially considering it was made by just 2 people in a short amount of time. The visuals are simple but effective (I love pixel art). I also really liked the sound effects. The difficulty of the game can vary a lot depending on luck, I had some games where I had a bit more time to think because the zombies were walking all over the place. The typing at the end completely changes the gameplay, making it clear that you're facing a boss (RPG fan here), and that's really cool. And as a final comment, it made me think and sharpen my math skills.
