For a simple shooter game, this hits the nail on the head! LOL. After repairing so many windows and shooting zombies - I haven't got a chance to get a drink yet! And I need one!

I think it's a really fun, short game with a super simple concept that captures the gameplay and the theme well (with a tad of humour too!) The mechanics are easy to learn and the controls are intuitive. I wished there was more to do within the game (if it was expanded in the future), but in it's current state, I think it works really work for what it is!

At more then 60000 points with over 3000 time I only shot four zombies. I am simply too good at repairing windows.

The graphics look like a PC game from mid 90's (in a good way), and the sound is properly meaty. The main menu picture is in class of it's own! Gotta love the angry chick with a shotgun an a leather jacket! My only real gripe with the game is that it's not intense enough! I should be scrambling to fix windows with zombies pouring in!

I'm the artist who made the title screen and I've been getting so much great feedback on it. Really appreciate that!

I share the same sentiment that the game is a little repetitive and there isn't enough action. If we do plan to revise this I'm definitely going to push for more difficulty and options.

Impressive work regarding the art, seriously I like it! The game play started feeling repetitive after a few rounds, but the mechanics are intuitive and easy to to handle. It felt weird to directly face every object to interact with it (like repairing doors or grabbing ammo). Would be better just standing next to it is enough for interaction. The sound effects and music fit, just like it fits for Halloween and especially the uninvited guest theme. Overall, good work. It feels very polished!

very nice game !!

I liked the hand drawing art very cool , and the sfx is nice but I think the music is a little bit annoying

giving the player multiple things to do and make him think "what should I do now ? fix , get more ammo or fight the zombies" is very clever and add some strategic depth to the game 

overall great submission

That was awesome! I love the art and sound effects in the menu and the music throughout was perfect. Really clever to position the ammo and the party door on opposite sides, that made for some tough decisions. If you're too diligent with window repairs it takes a while to get going but once it did, shooting zombies and was really satisfying. Fun stuff!

The menu art is actually sick. I REALLY liked it. At first, i thought the gameplay would be repetitive after a while, but surprisingly, it held itself well, at least until i lost, haha. The gameplay is fairly easy to understand even without a tutorial, but that doesn't mean it's simplistic or anything. One thing i did find a bit annoying sometimes, however, is that i have to face the object im trying to do something with (fix one of the doors, or get ammo). I know that's more realistic, but i found that a bit annoying. Another thing, when the number of zombies gets HUGE, it's a little bit unfair because their collision masks are really big, so i felt it's a bit unfair when desperately trying to get ammo, haha. But i can't complain about the thing that's latter too much--since when i've thought about it, i didn't find anyway to get through that problem without making the game too easy. 

The sfx and music were pretty good, but they were non-intrusive, which meant i was focusing on them less, which is unironically a good thing for this type of game lol

Great game!

Keep it up.

Thanks for all the feedback! I was the artist who did the title screen and UI. I'm very glad you liked my work! We have heard some issues with the collision boxes and might revisit this to make some more left out additions like guns and a second character. We'll see how the team feels after a little rest. Can't thank you enough for the kind words!

Lots of fun and I loved the hand-drawn assets! This is a project to be proud of.

I managed to get 65k score but after there were too many zombies :)) there are some bugs (the zombies sometimes get stuck and they can not continue walking to the party until you kill one of them) but for a 4 day jam it is a very cool game. Well done!
