Knife is op

Submitted (2 edits)

Cool artwork. Loved the ps1 style design. The little girl running out of the bathroom got me. Loved how you got me playing the bad ending and then playing again to get the good ending. Zombie animation could have a delay to prevent all of them doing the same animation. Overall great work!

Ooh nice twist! I liked the shooting but the knife won me over haha...
Creature spawning crept on me multiple times, but I guess that serves as part of the horror.
Good game!

Move over Back 4 Blood, the real zombie horde killer is here

Seriously though, fun game. Was the knife supposed to prevent item drops? I tried a few times to get to the end, but kept running out of bullets. The game has a fun look and feel to it regardless!

Did a good job of the PS1 era style.  However there was a fish-eye type distortion near the edge of my POV which was very distracting.  Wish that maybe there could have been some variation in the zombies like a couple different textures so they didn't look 100% the same.

I didn't understand the meaning of the game. Zombies that you can just run around. Camera distortion is unnecessary. Hints disappear so quickly that you don't even have time to read them.

Loved the look and classic horror elements in the game. The first scare got me! I will say the zombies were a bit excessive. I would have enjoyed fewer zombos with more hp over tons of them. Great submission!

Hi! I've played your game and put the playthrough video here: 

 

It might help you check how I played it and maybe improve some aspects with a different view :) I liked the overall game, I have to admit I jumped at the first zombie wave hahaha But they quickly become less frightening when you know how they are moving. I think they become stuck after a while and can't move on, do you know why?  

Anyway, really good job!!

The game with most gameplay in it so far i've played in this jam =D Well done

Good stuff: meaty knife sounds! nice surroundings.

Bad stuff: knife is OP. The warp effect on some textures due to VHS is too much, people will get dizzy

Trust him, people got really dizzy T.T


Good game overall.

Thanks for playing. I know that the texture warp effect is too much, but I didn't really want to change the warp effect on every single material, so I left it as it is. I did disable the effect for the road.
