Much more difficult than I expected even with the time stopping ability! Like the others, this would be a lot more fun if it reset the level instead of the whole game. Neat game though, I like the tank controls that's classic zombie game

I agree with the others, it's incredibly hard but a fun concept!

Fun and hard xDD

Thanks for playing! :)

Yeah, having to replay levels was a bummer, but other than that a fun game with wonderful SFX.

Developer

I’m glad you had fun! :)

I think there's some potential here for some interesting puzzling, but I was too frustrated by having to replay every level after failing. That seems pretty brutal, especially in a jam setting.

I also learned about the "time freeze" mechanic from the comments here. It did not occur to me to ever stop running... the zombies were coming for me.

I was pretty entertained by the SFX!

Thank you for playing and thanks for the feedback :)

Very unique and fun game! I like how time freezes when you stop moving, giving you time to plan your route through the zombies. It would be nice if each level was a checkpoint, as it took me about 8 tries to beat the second level and it got a bit tedious to replay the first level over and over again.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! :) You are right, it’s annoying to start over from the first level. We’ll definitely fix that after the jam.

Even a single zombie can completely ground the player :P (maybe add a gun with limited ammo?). Super fun and addicting!

Thanks for playing! :) We were actually planning to add a gun but we didn’t have time to do that.

Very cool entry! I really like how the standing still time stopping mechanic works, and how the music follows also pauses. You created a really interesting puzzle game, congrats! c:

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! :)

I like how you need to plan where zombies that are already in forward need to move before you even get there, nice puzzle

Developer

Thanks for playing!
