The art style is nice and the idea is interesting - unfortunately the controls are really unintuitive and it's hard to tell what/if you're getting close to a win-state. I wasn't sure what the circles on the ground were supposed to be, and for a while I thought the hospital was like a tomb or mausoleum. I didn't realize I had to click and drag on the zombies to target them somewhere, so for a while I was just aimlessly spawning them and waiting for them to get killed. I like that you included the tutorial screen, because it's really needed - but it doesn't explain a lot about the game, and actually contradicts some of the gameplay mechanics; i.e. the only thing it tells you is "click on tomestones to spawn zombies" - but then the zombies cannot be click/dragged or targeted and they wander off on their own, as opposed to staying in one spot like they do in the live game. I also couldn't figure out how to get out of the tutorial and back to the game itself, so I ended up reloading the game each time. This game has potential - I just feel like it could use a lot more polish, especially since you submitted it 20 hours before the deadline.  EDIT: just saw your comment about technical difficulties. That's unfortunate! I hope you are able to come back and work on this some more.

Yeah, I apologize for the tutorial being buggy and misleading, it has almost no functionality to it other than clicking to spawn the zombie lol. I definitely want to continue this game. Thanks for the feedback!

It's really good!, i liked the artstyle of the game and the mechanic to attack survivors as a zombie

Unfortunately in the last ~12 hours of the Jam, I started facing major performance issues (dropping to literally 1 fps), and got stuck fixing those before I could continue the game, and ended up not being able to finish in time… I’m going to finish this after the Jam ends, though, as I’d like to see what this project could have been.
