It's a cool idea to control a horde of zombies that are sometimes minding their own business instead of following my inputs. The game feels smooth and definitely fun. I wish there were more possibilities to gather a really huge uh... flock? and see what happens. Or perhaps some strategy thing as mentioned in other comments. I'm sure that this game has some potential!

Antivirus InternI never new how much I wanted to be a Zombie Hive Mind! I love the idea and that you do not have total control. Music is a little repetetive. Making the level smaller and more confined, with carfully placed enemies and rooms could result in an interesting little strategy game.

Emergency ProtocolNice game! It is simple yet fun!
It introduces the zombie apocalypse from a different perspective and I like it.
I think it would be cool if the zombies just spread everywhere rather than following player though.
Nice Job!

Run & Gun NCNice concept ! I was a little bit lost at times, knowing wich zombies i was controlling or not (can they escape your control?) But anyway smooth game !

Henri goes to warLove it! I like eating humans. There is really that feeling of loosing control. And I like how the game fit the theme in different ways. First to have no direct controll and the zombies too. Good job. And by the way, the art style is great too.

Boy, you are out of controlI think this fits the theme in a few interesting ways, with the out of control zombie horde and also the lack of direct control with the zombies following the cursor pretty loosely. I really loved the special zombie types you get for killing humans with harder weapons. I think if taking this further, it would be really cool to only have to kill some of the humans to complete the stage, so you're making more interesting choices about who to kill and whether you want to risk taking out harder humans or not! Good job!

Spacetime for FelinesNice, simple game with a good gameplay loop -- and the difficulty curve with the humans slowly getting better weapons was decent, though I felt it took a bit of a leap with the molotov one-hit-ko'ing my entire army. All in all, a pretty solid submission!

Werewolf Game PrototypeDecent game, but I think it could've fit the theme a bit better. Was quite fun. though! Good job!

Dusk of EmulchThis game is really fun! It's great to let your army of zombies loose on the people :D

Dude! Where's my skull?I've got to say controlling a zombie hoard is a lot more fun than I imagined, well presented, while there's not much interaction by the player other than 'point mouse over someone and they die', it was fun to watch and I played through to the end
