Nice one! I really love the pixel graphics + animations, sfx, and music. Things I would improve would be the opening art, the border around the computer, and enemy variety. Good job!

I'm guessing that crash at the end was intentional xD  Ironically the game didn't suck it was awesome!  I loved the amount of polish that went into it.  Nice zenith reference too on the screen heh.  I absolutely loved the art -can tell a lot of care went into it.  The action felt perfect -very responsive and fun to time the swings before they leap at ya.  The music was perfect zombie music too!  I hope you guys expand on this -there's a lot you could do with it!  Annnnyway enough of my rambling, excellent work! :D

Wow, really cool art and gameplay in this one.  I liked the concept overall, obviously a lot of effort went into this game.  I think there could be more mechanics added to really get things going, like additional zombie types/attacks.  I enjoyed this all the way up to the crash.  Intentional?

Also, intro was way too quick, would have really like to be able to control the slides at the beginning, very hard to read!

Good job!

Really well done pixel art and animations. Gameplay was also solid. I guess that crash at the end was intentional. 

For some reason I couldn't get it to run at more than 5fps 0_0

I'll abstain from voting--it looked cool!

Really good pixel art and great game feel. The only problem I encountered was a crash when finding a bunch of bugs.
