I love the switch from top down to sidescroller when in the bunker and in the city. I also love the VFX when a building obstructs you allowing you to literally see through it to your player. The inventory system is solid however the movement I was not a fan of at all. I also got momentarily confused because the inventory key is "I" but when I opened the zombie vendor's inventory with 'E', I could only get out of it by pressing the "I" key again which is very simple but caused me to get stuck for a good 30 seconds lol. Visuals are nice and zombie sounds are great! I love the mechanic with your zombie just he can be very sluggish making navigating the environment safely a task. In the time I played I only found 1 lootable container and I wasn't able to enter many buildings (If the entry was on a side of a building that wasn't camera-facing, this could be why I wasn't able to enter many buildings as I wasn't able to figure out where the entrances were). A very solid entry I liked the atmosphere a lot!

Cool game, I liked the idea of having the zombie with you to travel around safe
I liked the idea of the game but the bugs in the UI ruined the experience. It's a type of game I'd really like to play again when it's more stable.
This looks awesome. The controls are a bit odd with the mouse turning. The UI needs some improvement but overall works ok. It's cool seeing different packs combined this way though!
Good Job!
Pretty cool idea, however the UI seems to just get stuck sometimes, and once you die without any food in your inventory it's just a cycle of dying over and over.
The idea of having a zombie accompany you to keep you safe is pretty good and on point for the theme of this JAM.
