Even if it's a game with zombies (Zombies are a bit cliché haha), I truly like this game.

The game was fun to play, dynamique, with a humoristic scenario, and the ending...

THE ENDING ! I love this ending !

I just had to mention a bug, I don't know why but when one of my zombie died, the ennemies didn't do anything (so it was truly easy to defeat them hahaha)

However, your game is truly fun !

They are a bit cliche, I'll fully admit that! With the time allotted for the jam I didn't really want to spend precious time thinking of a more unique idea: I thought "this fits the theme, it'll do". I actually had a more varied party with a skeleton, a zombie slime and a ghost cat but that didn't carry the theme as well for me so I changed it to four zombies. 

And yeah, that bug has been mentioned a lot and I'm really at a loss as to what's causing it. I'm looking into it and trying to fix it but I haven't managed to yet unfortunately! I'm glad you enjoyed the game despite that though, it means a lot that I could make you laugh!

This game surely has its own identity!
Despite the fact this is a T-RPG (and it's a bit rare with RPG maker), i found the humor, the atmosphere and the story really catchy!

A nice realization for a Jam!

Thank you so much! Tactical RPGs are one of my favourite genres and I've always wanted to make them because there just aren't enough of them out there, and I always want to do something different and put new twists on both SRPGs and RM games, so it really means a lot that you think it has its own identity and appreciate how I tried to set it apart. Hopefully you'll be interested in my future tactics projects!

This was a really fun game! Just a heads up: there is some sort of bug in the final battle that made the enemies stop fighting for some reason. But that was the only issue I had with the game.

Someone else had the same bug and I'm not sure what's caused it but I'll be looking into it for sure, I just didn't have time to test that battle as thoroughly as the others with the deadline encroaching. Hopefully an updated version will fix it but I had to submit something, you know? I'm glad you enjoyed it despite that, though, it means a lot!

yes I had the same bug. However, the game is really cool x)
