Hilarious concept, great execution. Would have loved to have keyboard/mouse control prompts for the onboarding, but I figured it out and had a great time with this. Nice work!

This was fun. It has a lot of hectic energy, but there's also room to improve your play style and be more tactical. Something like this would be great in a co-op mode.
It's a bit janky, but that's understandable with the time constraints. I had a bit of trouble keeping track of which spouse was which, but maybe I just needed time to memorise the colour codings. The lack of sound effects was also noticeable - they would really have made it more satisfying to slaughter hordes of zombies.

For Whom The Sheep BleatNice game, I had a lot of fun with one! Very original. I only ended up skipping the whole first level because you can pass between the barn and the fence and walk all the way around to the bus, but it's a lot of fun and a creative way to get rid of the undead, nice one!

Defying InstinctsIs it possible to play with the keyboard? I was able to get out of the barn, but then it said I needed to use the right bumper to grab and I couldn't find any keys that worked (I don't want to rate till I give it a fair try)

Cursed ApartIt is such a shame that this game probably won't be rated much as a result of the large download size and lack of clear directions, because there is a lot of ideas and content here. Even though it was buggy, I could tell there was a lot of effort put into this just from the first few levels (I got stuck on the part where you where supposed to drive a police car into the big red button, the police car stopped a a few seconds before it could reach the big red button). I can't imagine the amount of effort it took to make a game this content dense in just FOURTY-EIGHT HOURS!!! I love the variety of mechanics that emphasized the connection between the newlyweds. How zombies are damaged using the literal physical connection between the newly weds, how heavy objects can only be moved if both of the newlyweds grabbed it, how the events (The only ones I encountered so far are driving a bus and driving a police car) makes one of newlyweds drive while the other ones protects themselves and their partner against the zombie horde alone. My favorite part when I had to use both of the newlyweds to grab and put aside the barrels in the way of progress quickly as a zombie horde is attacking them, pinning them against the barrels. There seems to even more levels and I imagine that they also introduce new mechanics that develop the relationship of the newlyweds further, shame I couldn't reach them :(.
Also if you want more people to play and rating this game you should join the discord (https://discord.com/invite/pd4rQKU) and post your game on the review-my-game-channel, I'm sure many people there will be interested in trying out your game :).
Also: If this game jam game was polished and made into a full game I think that would be great! There are many cool ideas and mechanics that connected the newlyweds it would be great if these mechanics could be in a less buggy full game and explored further. I think the games has enough cool mechanics to make a interesting 2-10 hour game. Having a narrative would probably elevate the game's themes further and make the player more invested!
I sadly couldn't finish the game because one character got stuck in the floor everytime I played that section.

Mirror InvadersFun concept. Having to move two entitles at the same time is a real mind-twister!

Paisible Soirée au Fil d'ÉtoilesVery fun game :D Could use a little bit of directions so that’s it’s more clear where to go next (got stuck at the big red button near the cop car and when I figured out I need to down the zombies had me surrounded).
