December 13th-16th 2013 :: Theme: You Only Get One
[ Real World Gatherings | Ludum Deals | Warmup Weekend ]
Hello everyone,
Well this game is more kind of a concept of what I wanted to make. I had a simple but complex idea, and I'm pretty satisfied at where I got to. Yes, there are MANY bugs and glitches and I know it, it's just that I only had time code the game and almost no time for debugging, where I used it for game breaking ones. I liked the concept so much, that I might even continue it, after this is over. It would be a pretty good idea if it was better executed and what most intrigues me: Multiplayer. I'm FAR from having the coding capacity of doing it but I can dream, right? I mean someday. So yeah, enjoy it if you can.

Yep onemoar, I really wanted to do that, but I didn't had enough time! I submitted this 8 minutes before the ending of the Compo, it was the most complex game that I have developed in 48h for LD. I mean 1500 lines of code may sound easy for a good programmer but it was not for me xD. So yeah, thanks for your review man!
you could have put more zombies, but with less life. It takes too many shots
music is really spot on with the game. Also was fun to play. I ran out of bullets so fast though, maybe more spawns? Thanks!
The close view make it quite claustrophobic - the music also adds nicely to this mood (like an old horror movie). It would be cool if the survivors would also seek the company of you and other npcs. Enjoyed it!
Gosh, great work Bruno! Could use better graphics, and some "fleshing" out (heehee), but besides that, I love how there are different types of zombies, powerups, and the gameplay is straightforward. :D
isaacmarco: Yeah I didn't had much time to get the game play to feel just right. Thanks for your comment!
TeddyNashor: I had some trouble with the powerup spawn code. Thanks for your review :)
hroon: Thanks man! The survivors already look for other survivors if they are in their "range of view", unfortunately didn't had time to make the same thing with player :(
Zanzlanz: Thanks for your support bro! <3
I thought the audio and mood were quite good. Gameplay felt a bit buggy, but that's expected.
A bit boring, but not bad. Moving through what appeared to be doors was a bit weird and I didn't quite understand the win-con. It was OK.
cool game, should work on it further and add some extra levels
For some reason, the links are not working for me. Couldn't play it, couldn't rate it.
The game itself isn't too bad, but the art is. But It's hard making good art in less than 48 hours when you still need to do all the coding still. so to me, art isn't a big deal. Good job. And good luck.
Its sure is a complex idea for 48 hours but still you did it. You sad in your description you would like to implement multiplayer. Maybe you could look at Unity2D abilities. It would be much simpler than flash. With this finished project your are step closer to your dream. Really god job.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Not a bad game, pretty simple shoot-em'-up. Top-down pixel art makes for a weird point of view, but not terrible. I also thought that maybe the zombies had too much health, but that's a bit of a nit-pick.
