Fun one weapon game. Mabe more levels with walls where you could bounce the axe off would make it more interesting though.

Pretty, fun! I liked how the returning mechanic was hidden for the player to find out.

Once I figured out how to use that axe effectively I had a blast. Almost got to 100. I liked this mechanic. I'd like to see it grow.

If you have a chance to give my game a play I'd appreciate it:

That was really fun, managed to get a score of 199 before I got trapped in a corner. 

Loved to try get as many as possible in one throw summoning the axe back while running around the screen was a lot of fun :P

Oh im glad you liked it. Looks like youve played longer than me XD

What can I say, I was enjoying it. 

Just FYI when you are that high there is a VERY large group spawned in the middle by that point. 

Also I forgot to mention you might want to increase the attack rate of them somewhat I found myself very rarely having any bones thrown at me. Don't increase too much just a tad to increase the difficultly but not take the fun away.

Very fun and original game! I love this and I totally think it would make an amazing mobile game, great great job, this game is brilliant! Perhaps the background should change colour the higher your combo score is!
Congrats for creating this masterpiece within 48 hours!

If you haven't yet, I would really appreciate it if you check out our game too!

This was really enjoyable. Bouncing the axe and getting combos felt great.

I really like this game. This is a good example that a simple idea can be a fun game. Axe works so great and return perfectly. A ranking to see your best score would be great!

Pretty simple, but effective. I agree, as someone else said, I think this would make a nice mobile game, if you could out the controls. Nice work!

Extremely satisfying to kill the zombie dudes. The screen shake is really good, and the controls are super responsive. A very good take on the theme.

Ugh thats weird. Its javascript error so the problem is probably on godot side. You can try this standalone version if you want. Cant add it to the game page because uploads are disabled.
