Ghoul Rush is a game about small-scale apocalypse. You play as a necromancer hell-bent on converting entire villages into undead. Unfortunately, your brain-eating minions are really stupid (duh!) and you have to control them manually - all at the same time!
The game uses lots of paid and free graphics assets from Unity Asset Store. We've also used free sounds from freesound.org by DjCHAOS, Sonic, jorickhoofd, Under7dude, MrPokephile.
Music is "Fluffing a Duck" by Kevin McLeod, http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Kevin_MacLeod/

Awesome graphics and audio. I liked the further levels where you could get skeleton warriors.
Fun game, and it gets more and more challenging. I like it. But how does it fit the theme? :)
@janovbyrnisson Well, it's all on a single screen, isn't it?... Kind of a stretch, I know (-8
This is a really fun little game, love the humor and the concept! Really nice art/audio too.
Nice zombie game. Good graphic and super sound effects ;)
Unfortunately the pathfinding is sub-optimal. The persons tend to go straight to the edge and get stuck there. So it's too easy to catch them.
Overall it's a nice little game with a lot of potential.
I rated enough high for all except for the theme (although the screen is static there is more than one screen).
Very challenging (at level 4 or 5 with the skeletons and the guy shooting bullets).
Very well made :)
A dude with a gun and hat totally wrecked me. Nice clean concept.
Fun game, nice idea! I have trouble connecting it to the theme though, as others said too...
Very neat game, but sometimes in the first level my zombies got stuck on the fence and couldn't move, made me lose.
I loved the game - it would make a very fun mobile game too. Great work!
Very funny! I liked the "braaains" they say all the time!
Wow, awesome ! I really like the game design and the realization is great too. Very nice game :)
Well polished! It's very satisfying to control a zombie army to destroy the gunman hahaha
It seems a little unrelated to the theme, but I do quite like the gameplay.
Really nice and well polished entry. Had a lot of fun playing this and I like how each of your zombies' movements are independent from each other (which makes for some pretty interesting brain eating strategies).
Nice concept of control. Game not really connected to theme. But, anyway thats a great work! I like it.
Cool and innovative way to control your zombies. Very fun and complete game.
It's HIGH FiVE stars! Awesome graphics and music and moood, I loved it all! Thanks
Damn! I love this game!
Nice graphic, funny gameplay, nice music. 10/10 Well done! :D
Hello from Microsoft #GamesJam!
Kawaii undeads rullz! Five stars!
Super! Lot of fun. Gameplay about supremacy. Good graphics. Intuitive controls. Soft learning curve. No blah-blah text. Perfect combination. Only one bug - sometimes you can't see people and zombies behind nearest objects (walls).
Very funny game ^^ The sounds are super and it looks good too :)
what a nice cartoon zombie game)
I like the idea of controlling swarm of undeads
You should definitely release full game in future!
Wow, really neat game. The controls are perfect — it's so fun to control a real crown of zombies with my only WASD.
I personally really like zombie theme)

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.
Very cute zombie apocalypse.
