It is a really interesting idea.
The instructions could be clear and it has a bug that when the drone die it became invisible, but still moving around
But with some more work the game could be really fun
Yeah, I had multiple versions of the game where I fixed that bug. I guess I uploaded the wrong version to itch.io
Excellent interpretation of the theme. Really neat little prototype, lot of potential. Love the atmospheric music, and I like the minimap implementation too.
Does character health fall constantly from hunger? I've only found 1 health pack from 3 play throughs so I die of hunger every time:( Also there needs to be a pause menu. Since it's a zombie game, maybe the drone needs to be faster since I want to be shooting most of the time. Cool concept. I like the realism.
Thanks for the feedback.
Nice game. Love the way you've interpreted the theme. It's fun to play but would benefit from a bit of signalling. Maybe flash when there's zombies near your other guy (drone or human). Also so info about how much ammo you've got and which bar is your health.
Overall a fun game though!

The idea is good, but I think you should make easier to find the packages and I don't really know what the tools that you find on the map are for. You could make indicators of where the collectables are (like arrows or little animations on the minimap). You could also put a pop-up when you find for first time something that says you what does it do. When you change from the player to the drone and viceversa, if the player had a weapon, it doesn't fire anymore, could you fix that?
I'm Spanish, sorry for my bad english.
The weapon doesn't fire anymore because it's out of ammo.
Ok, thaks for the clarification. It happend 2 times when I changed from the human to the drone, that's why I had thought that it was a bug. Maybe to make it clear you should put an out of ammo sound? It would be nice if you put also some healing particles when the drone gets healed with the tools. I think it would fit well if the zombies can't hit the drone and put batteries to recharge it's power. You could make that it moves faster when it has full battery and slower when has only a little.
You could also make the out of ammo weapons disappear because when you have 5 or 6 where the player is it's very difficult to pick up one with bullets. Maybe just make that you pick first the weapons with ammo?
When you have been playing for a little if you try to pick up something with the drone, it doesn't pick up anything and the human does, maybe a bug?
Sorry if I have been too harsh in the previous comment
It's fine, I'll just make it more obvious next time. Sorry if there was any confusion.
