Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous.

  • The game is a well-designed top-down survival shooter and I liked the breadth of mechanics, including a map, multiple objectives, ammo and health and torch lighting. It looks like you have really progressed your skills in making complex games in Construct!

Fun game! The flashlight mechanics made things more tense

Thanks :)

The limited view as well as the type of controls add a subtle helplessness reminding me of silent hill, resident evil and deadly premonition. which I think adds to any zombie game 

Developer

First 2 of the games were in my mind when designing the game! Thanks :)

Love this game, the flashlight only light source makes the atmosphere stands out!

Great concept, great graphics, and a fun game. 

Developer

Thank you :)

Nice aesthetics! I also like that you don't have infinite ammo, you really need to think about your next step. Great job

Developer

Thank you!

The sounds and music are cool, really gives an oppressing vibe to your game!
A bit more variation in the environment would have been nice, but it is already enough to feel immersed in your game.

Good job :D

Zombies give me the heebie-jeebies

I got rank B which I'm pretty proud of! Good game with good-looking sprites! The only downside is the disappearing walls and zombies, which minimally annoyed me.

I really enjoy the simplicity of the art, and how well it works with what you are trying to create. The field of view you created was a great addition, and I really enjoyed playing. Great job!

Developer

Thanks :)

This is a solid top-down zombie shooter! I'd recommend adding some in game tutorials or tips to communicate the controls. I didn't know you could heal or use a map until after I finished the game and read the itch page. But overall, good work!

Developer(+1)

First rule in game development should be: No one reads the instructions :) Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

This well a cool idea. It was hard for me to see where the map was and it sort of felt invisible. It was a fun experience.

Developer(+1)

If I have got more time it would've been more polished. Thanks for the feedback :)

Submitted(+1)

It works just fine! I just think that the game is a little too slow overall, and you don't get enough ammo, so ideally you just avoid the zombies. I really liked how you used the lightning to show/hide objects on the game, it's very well made!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated :)

Great submission!

Developer

Thank you!

Game feel good, some sprint or faster walk will be nice add

Developer

Thanks for your comment :)

Submitted(+1)

This game gives me CodeMonkey vibes haha. I thought it was fun! My only critique would be to add a melee or a sprint because so that I have other options once I run out of ammo

Developer

Thanks :)
