Such a cool concept! it was very satisfying lining up a bunch of enemies in a row to hit them, nice work!

This was an interesting idea, and the characters were super cute! Plus one for the cover art!

Thank you! I spent a while trying to get a good cover art and i'm happy with what i landed on!

This game is really cool. Having to go collect my ball really changes how I approach combat, I had to be a lot more careful about my shots. I definitely found it difficult, I probably did 15 or so runs and never got of floor 1. I always made silly mistakes juking zombies (They are very tanky) and took a bunch of damage.

I really like this art style too. 

Gunna try a few more runs to see if I can improve. I think getting the right item is key, I'm not sure if there is a way to see what each item does but I think the one that lets me summon the ball is my favorite.

Thank you so much! Iwas gonna nerf the zombie hp but ran out of time. There is a way to see the item descriptions, just click on the little menu icon in the very bottom right and it'll open the inventory! there you can read item effects and how they stack with themselves!
