It's 2084 and Zombies are everywhere. Your job is to take them out, and save the innocent people roaming around.

Edit: I've seen the comments saying it's scrolling... It wasn't designed this way as the levels should fit in one screen, but I've noticed that on highres displays something odd is happening, and the scaling gets wrong. This changes the dynamic, and is something I'm looking into. Thanks for playing :)

Interesting interpretation of one of my favorite games. Load time/restart time could be shorter, maybe? Nicely done overall!
Nice game, shooting with the arrow keys wasn't very intuitive though, would be better with a single key to shoot whichever direction the player was facing.
Those zombies are pretty tough. They swarm and take a lot of shots each. It wasn't clear to me that I had to actually touch the people to save them, so for the first few plays it seemed like the scoring wasn't working. Also I think if you kill all the zombies it should either wait for you to collect the allies, or just give you the points for them. Currently the level ends with them uncollected and you miss out. Since I couldn't figure out the scoring I actually ended up making a game within a game in that I was trying shoot all my allies while not killing any zombies. Just avoiding them. It was pretty challenging and a fun game of avoidance.
it was fun to play, but I don't see the theme in it.
After playing a while I also had a hangup in my browser. (using chrome, became unresponsive for a while, not sure what happened)
Not a bad little shooter, captures the classic arcade feel pretty well. Autofire would be nice, and the collisions sometimes feel a bit unfair, but good job :)
Lovely game. Great way of displaying controls/introduce the game (with the first level).
Difficult but Nice game!
one thing was that I had to read the comments to figure out I need to use the arrow keys to shoot...I was bit damn orz
Hi there. Found it pretty difficult to survive. The screen kept resizing to be too big. The movement and sprites looked good. Shame there were no sounds (Chrome / W8.1)
Nice game, i think the scrolling is a bit too slow (it should keep the player in the center of the screen, because I can't really see where i'm going actually), and the hitbox are sometime too big. But it's still fun and nice to play !
It was cute this. I liked the pixel art, although I was getting a bit of slowdown when there were lots of zombies and things on the screen which was a shame. :( Fun though!
If there is audio I couldn't hear it. Holy carpal tunnel batman though, please let me hold down a fire key (or even the arrow keys) to shoot instead of having to mash them. :P
I'm also not certain how this related to the theme since it scrolled for me.
Lots of fun! Collision detection was pretty brutal. Some audio feedback would be helpful (it wasn't clear I was "saving" people until partway through the game). Good job!
The tight controls make up for awkward collision areas and while simple the mechanics are quite enjoyable and challenging, nice work!

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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
Fun! Pretty difficult to actually save people, though. Good job!
