Amazing game ! Probably the best I played this jam. The art is very cool, the SFX and music give the world life, in general it is very polished for a gam jam ! I especially like the balance, the level feel challenging (The zombies pathfiding is very well done) but not frustrating, maybe a little bit too easy but I think it's fine to aim for easy in a jam. The boss is very well constructed, its attacked are clear enough to read that when you get it you feel like it's your fault and the strategy you need to adopt to beat it takes just enought time to find (Took me around 5/6 tries to beat it can't remember.) Using a "life" bar that rise and goes down with time is a very good choice for this kind of platformer. The level ending scores is a very nice addition, tought being able to see the energy used during the level would have been cool.
About what I think could be better :
- Falling in the second level from the very top to the bottom when dealing with the tower is pretty frustrating.
- The boss music doesn't really match it.
- Having the flamethrower not being part of the player and dropping when empty, is cool visually but since it is not necessary for the mechanics of the game it feels a bit confusing.
