build up a small city while surviving against the undead horde
I checked out the game page and trailer, and this game has great appeal! Simplistic in the right way, that has that retro feel. Also the soundtrack for the trailer is perfect 👌
Hi my name is Frans and I am an aspiring game developer. I know pixel art and have been working on a game werfast.
This game; minigame i want to create will be a tactical coop defense horror game. with 4-6 players local play which takes place with some kind of zombie/mutant enemies to infest the whole city.
Gameplay:
1-6 players coop defend against horde/wave attacks. each player play as s soldier to arm themselves with different small arms.: assault rifle,pistol,grenade launcher,grenade etc.
In the fight they will also customize themself with different gear like plate carrier to reduce damage.

Love this pixel dungeon crawler style! I do have some feedback about the store page: all of the screenshots look almost identical, which I appreciate is kinda inevitable because of the game's visual style, but maybe trying to get a couple of different scenes interspersed between the walls-and-monster shots would go a long way toward capturing people's attention. Also, the trailer is similarly repetitive, so could possibly be shorter to avoid repeating too many similar scenes, as it makes the game look more boring - and I'm sure it's not! The music is also oddly cheerful, despite the game having more dark visuals. Perhaps some more tense/battle style music would be better (I'm a composer and can help with this if needed).
That being said, don't be discouraged, as I like these kinds of games, and it looks nice!
Actually, that's just about it. The game is just short and I can only show limited screens, so i opted to show the monsters. For the music, I unfortunately didn't search hard enough for something more appropriate. I fully agree with your points, and I'll do my best to keep them in mind for my next game. Thank you for checking it out!
No problem! I'm a game soundtrack composer myself, so if you ever have a budget in future and want some custom music making for your games, I'd love to help out! I make legit chiptune on a modded 1989 Game Boy 😊
Working on a life sim for a DJ/Streamer - now working on refining the graphics and replacing placeholders with hand crafted images and balancing the gameplay loop :)
