Good bad trip, lmao. The only thing missing is variety of the gameplay. But it fun.

Really cool aesthetics

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! BTW, I just pushed up a new update with new weapons and procedural generation!

Awesome visuals, simple / fun gameplay! It’s so cool that you only made it in 3 hours!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! I just pushed up a new version with procedural generation and more weapons!

I just tried it, very cool! I got to the 6th stage and 6370 points. The shotgun is awesome, it almost feels overpowered. That is, before there are 1000000 zombies around you…

It is very beautiful and frenetic, is a joy to play, just walking and shooting. Miss a little bit of depth, but is hard to do in a game jam

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! I've just posted a new update that adds new weapons, procedural generation and more! Please check it out if you feel like it! :)

Love the visuals and the sound of the zombie footsteps is freaky! Evokes "The Long Night" in GOT final season. Gameplay is simple and fun.

Dev page has a picture of a giant spider surrounded by fire... if dev is reading this gimme some of that! I'm following now so i can play future updates.

Developer

Yooo, thank you so much dude. More giant spiders coming soon. Something something Halloween...?

I was writing a pretty slick review of this quaint game, but I foolishly pushed Ctrl+R instead of Shift+R. I went as indepth as the last few braincells in my head could. So be prepared for a far shorter review than I had anticipated. 

Not to bash any devs including this one, but I wouldn't have expected this game to come from this jam considering what most of the other creations that came from this jam look like at first glance. It definitely stands out and fits the theme.

The gameplay is simple. Simplicity isn't a bad thing of course. Just run, gun and occasionaly jump. Though, I did find but one feature that I believe is unintended. If you find yourself in the same situation, do be warned: you will drop frames, be swarmed, and the sound will compile into some vile amalgamtion of noise pollution.  I'm sure that, given more time, the dev would have implemented other weaponry. 

The thing that attracted me to try this out the most was the visuals. I love the color scheme so much considering it's about drugs the undead (which makes me all the more happy). I was also interested at how the gun provides light when fired. I'll chalk that up as an intended effect since it brings me more joy than I think it should. 

Anyhow, the TLDR of this is: if I was going to introduce this to a friend, it would be as a breather from other fps games as it is fun for the few minutes that most people end up playing it. I became somewhat invested and gave it a few tries until I had a score I was proud of. 

Thank you Dev and Unexpected Game Jam. 

Developer

Thank you for writing such a massive review, I poured over each and every word multiple times. My deepest condolences for the review that was lost to the refresh key. I just pushed up a new update that adds new weapons and procedural level generation!

Technically, it's all fine. Nothing big goes on so nothing big could go wrong. With better visual indication of enemy or damage direction, and distinction of damage received vs. done, plus some random level generator, this would be a decent arcade game (https://twitter.com/smushyarm/status/1307597024481730561).

Developer

Thanks for the review and the tweets! I just pushed up a big new update with procedural level generation! (you read my mind haha) I'd love to hear what you think.

I love this. The ascetic is great. Not just for the retro feel, but because of the low res it gives you this feeling of "Did I just see something? No I didn't..."


The pacing is great too. gives you a few guys to worry about and quickly just ramps up and up

Developer

Thanks, I'm glad you appreciated the look and feel! I just pushed up an update if you're hungry for more.

This a fun and simple little shooter. The art style is interesting, but it's often really difficult to see what was happening. Overall is this an good jam game. Well done.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the nice comment! Visibility is somewhat low, it was intended to encourage the player to keep moving. I just pushed up a big new update if you'd like to give it a try!

Submitted(+1)

That was the scariest thing I've played in a while, completely unexpected

Developer(+1)

Glad you liked the game! I just pushed up a big update if you're feeling brave ;)

This one feels really good to play! I didn't last too long, but I really enjoyed the spooky visuals. Well done!

Developer

Thanks so much! I just pushed up a big update; curious to hear your thoughts!
