Pretty cool gameplay loop, i just didnt feel like there was that much of a point to, yk moving around, as in just uhh, staying still and shooting.. The art was pretty neat too!

Very nice gameplay loop, having a leaderboard really gives replayability, however it was really frustrating when my streak ended cause of zombies spawning inside the player and couldn't do anything about it. Personal best 75 kills :P

Developer

Sorry about that! will work on a fix for the full release

Cute and fun, just needs some music.

Developer

It has music just doesn't start playing until you click the screen because of a glitch I didn't notice til it was too late :/

the controls are fun, love how the hamster rolls inside its wheel.

 the most effective strategy I found was to camp at the corner and throw the hamster ball to only one direction, and I almost did not end up moving at all, which is sad cuz moving is fun. Also my most common cause of death was when an enemy spawned on top of me, It felt annoying, like I had no control and it came down to luck. could also be a skill issue.

Edit: ho and I think there is a bug that causes sound to not play, because I did not hear anything.

 Also hamster is cute.

Developer

There is a bug that causes sound to not be played, simply click the game while in a round to fix it (and maybe go back and redo the audio rating on my game :D)

will do!

Developer

Thanks! btw the corner camping is what causes skeletons to spawn on you, I made it so skeletons would only spawn in the corners, but I get how this could be unfair so I will change that in the full release
