Nice graphics and solid gameplay. I not grood at typing though lol Still fun though :)

Developer(+1)

Yeah me neither, our programmer is too good at typing so he made it too hard at the same time, thanks for enjoying our game!

nice link of zombies and santa!

Developer

Haha thank you, glad you enjoyed the game! =D

Made it to "they aren't" on the first run, which I believe was the 4th wave? Reminds me of Typing of the Dead. Overall pretty good, though I cannot imagine getting to wave 10 with this difficulty curve.

Developer(+1)

The difficulty curve is shockingly hard. The furthest I've seen someone go is wave 5. We are planning to update the game later on to smooth out the difficulty because there is other content in the game that won't see the light of day like backwards walking zombies where you have to type the word backwards. Nonetheless, thanks for enjoying the game :D

A very nice game! Just one little thing, one time two words was overlapping so I could  not read one of them. One of the words was very long so I figured it could be because of that.

Developer(+2)

Yeah totally, a good way of fixing this would be to bring whatever word is being typed to the front of the screen. But nonetheless, thank you for enjoying the game and the valuable feedback! We plan to update the game after Wednesday. =D

Never seen such a game before. I really like the game mechanic. It is original and FUN.

Developer

Thanks a lot man! I'm really happy that you and others are enjoying the game. It means a lot!

Submitted(+2)

A simple idea, well-executed. Would've liked a few more words in the pool as there was a fair bit of repetition, but there's only so much that can be done in the time. 

Got a good laugh out of a few of the things that popped up!

Developer

Haha, really happy you enjoyed it! I do agree that there could've been more words added into the list to cut down on repetition. Nonetheless, thanks for the feedback and the kind words :D

Great little fun game! The music and aesthetic were right up my alley. Love it!

Developer

Aw thanks! Really happy that you enjoyed it :D

Good gameplay and really nice artwork. I definitely felt the pressure and started making more mistakes when the zombies were getting close haha.

Developer

Haha perfect, we were trying to make a tense, sweaty game. I guess that worked out a bit too well, the difficulty definitely needs tweaking.

Submitted(+2)

Pretty fun game, couldn't make it past the 2nd wave but it was fun and the artwork was pretty nice. Santa's spagetti arms were pretty great!

Developer

HAHA, yeah I loved creating his arms. kinda turned out like an inflatable tube guy xD. Also the difficulty definitely needs tweaking, none the less, thank you for the kind words!

Submitted(+1)
