Made a stream in which I played your game, you can check out here! Was fun slapping masks on people and generally just figuring out the logic behind masks + zombies + vaccines. Hotdog zombie stole the show. I didn't win on my first play through but I started getting an idea of how (I think) you wanted me to play-- or how the design guided me to play. Also that thermal vision is rad! Check out my submission if you have a moment!

Thanks for the great comments! The city size, citizens and pickups are all procedural, so replay it to get a different experience each time!

This was a really fun and creative game! Good job! I think there could be more infected at a time to make the game more fast paced and exiting, but it was a fun idea that was executed well.

Wow, submitted to 4 jams. Not bad :D That one was actually quite fun. I like the concept and the visuals of the game. The pacing could've been a bit tighter / faster for my liking. Especially in the mid game, where I experienced some situations where nothing interesting was happening really. While the overall movement and the shooting feels quite good, the jump is way to floaty. There's also way to much air control. But I'd say those are probably just polishing issues that can be fixed rather quickly. I could really see this being expanded into a full game :) Congrats!
