There is potential here! I liked the in-depth customizability the options provided, and I'm sure the progression mechanics would be good fun as well. The idea isn't too bad either!
However, I feel like there's one glaring issue that stopped me from having the fun this game could very well provide with some tweaks. The circle which controls the horde is just too small. Maybe it's just me, but it took me so long to get a portion of the crowd infected, and I got really bored and frustrated.
I can see that effort has gone into making Embrace the Hoard. Thank you for uploading!
