some of the weirdest rain I've ever seen :) nice game tho!
This is pretty nice. You did a great job on the graphics and particles. The audio worked out well too. I did get some stutter out of the sound at times, but it's nothing that affected gameplay. It's also kind of a small window by default, which made it hard to fully see your nice artwork, but luckily that's easy to resize since it's HTML5. Nice work overall!
I really like the particle effects, especially the raindrops. The grave spatter is a good trick, too.
Great shooting action! Only I think this game needs a better goal. Right now you can just sit in one spot and patiently shoot everything that spawns in front of you. How about making the player run around to collect things?
Graphics are greats. Sounds too. Enough too create a coherent atmosphere and universe. Gameplay is quite simple but i like it.
I liked it alot! A few more weapons and more distinct bullet graphics and i would have been hooked for hours.
The music, the thunder and the graves create a nice creepy atmosphere ! The graphics are not bad, overall really fun to play. Maybe a little too easy ;)
Great job setting the mood, I love the soundtrack. What it needs now is some progression of difficulty. The zombies don't seem to be hard, but I guess you could add a timer.
Did somebody noticed that the rain washes away the blood from the tombstones? That shit's neat.
Nicely executed: the game looks good and plays well. The game could definitely be more challenging though.
The thunder, lightning and rain was cool, and the splats of the enemies and player death too. I would have liked to see more intelligent enemies and some more weapons!
The game looks great there isn't much gameplay though. Need some depth, some challenge and some goal.
Liked it. Actually fun, made me waste a few minutes without even realizing.
- The details were awesome - rain and particles. Are those default to ImpactJS or did you programmed them by yourself?
- The bullet trajectory was simple and effective; you could shoot from the other side of the screen, calculating to hit zombies while escaping the place.
You should definitely work on improving this game.
Here's some things you could do:
- Spawnable Power-ups/Mutators/Whatever. They could both benefit and downgrade your progress
- Different behavior for the zombies; Like some could run after you, others could jump... You could even copy from L4D or somethin
- Other weapons/equipments; grenades, machineguns... The sky is the limit.
- Co-op; I think 4 to 5 people playing at the same time (cramming the keyboard, I know) would make a great hit.
- Multiplayer; if you're feeling brave, mess up with websockets, rev up a server and turn this baby into a huge thing!
Congrats!
Pretty nifty little game. I liked letting the zombies build up on a platform and then just tear through them like a boss.
Pretty nice graphics and a good game! I included it in part 9 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series if you'd like to take a look http://youtu.be/ln7f84GPnPg
Very boring =(
But visuals are nice. So if you add bonuses and weapons, this game become standard survival shooter.
nice game although the zombies are too easy to kill.
The rain and the splatter effect is really nice.
Thank you all for your feedback and suggestions! :)
alexdantas: The particles were made by me (all code in the "source" zip is), but Impact makes it really easy to move things on the screen...
Particles! I love particles! Can't say I'm fond of the very liner jumping but I'll make an exception for the wonderful particles everywhere.
Hello, there!
FYI your game was featured on this blog post:

Thanks a lot for making this awesome entry :)
Classic. 184 points. You could probably expand on this into more areas. Well done!
Cool graphics, particles and mood. The game lacks a challenge (i am guessing time issues) but I can totally see this game becoming an arcade (every time harder survival kind of game).
The game seems to miss some goal, otherwise this game is very well polished with awesome graphics and great music!
Audio is incredible.
You made a really nice game. I like the pixel effects very much. But it would be nice if the game was a bit more challenging. Nonetheless a great start, you should work further on this.
Nice and crisp action but no challenge. Increase the spawn rate over time, make ammo limited, or do something to make it so the game will eventually end. I absolutely loved the rain effect!

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.
gotta say I love the splatter effects;), nice job:)
