would benefit from some way to defeat the zombies, only so many walls u can drag.

DeveloperSubmitted

yes there is also the idea to create traps and than the work for you ... .-) i am working on a more-bytes-version hopefully comes in these version

I didn't understand how to play at first and died shortly after dropping the house. But after I had read the tutorial, I could survive long enough and harvest every resource in the screen. Nice game!

DeveloperSubmitted

you can even get to another screen .-) if you feed all plants with water. and there is no more water left, you get another colony .-)

I harvested every resource and started in another screen but it was game over in a few seconds because bad house placement and unpredictable zombies. The house placement and very first seconds of gameplay are critical for surviving.

This is brilliant - very impressed that you managed to fit an RTS-like in 1k.
Plays well too (though you might want to make the view dimensions taller, so the game isn't so small when displayed).  Glad you had a tutorial - really helped me to understand the concepts and goal.
Great entry 👍
(Best score I managed was 1010)

It's a pretty difficult game, but I'm really impressed how much mechanically you were able to fit into it within the size restriction.
