A simple yet very engaging game :) The visuals are polished and well thought out, music also, and the mini-games add a super fun and unexpected twist to the gameplay!

I like the vibes of this, looks and sounds great, and loks like a real throwback to old topdown games - the only thing I'm kinda iffy on is the controls. Moving in 45 degree angles is wierd for me, but since the shooting is handled by the mouse, it's not a big deal. Nice job!
Shooting felt good and I really like the idea here! With some more work you could have a really fun little game!
Shooting the zombies felt good. Even though they never got close enough to present a threat, they honestly just felt like a fun collectible to get while moving through the minigames, and that seems like what you guys were going for. Other than the last minigame which was a bit confusing, the other minigames were quite fun and the time pressure for the whack-a-zombie felt appropriate (As someone who is bad at whack-a-mole lol).
My only challenge with the art was that I was looking forward to navigating a carnival themed environment, and the world itself gave more of a rural trailer park wasteland. I still really liked the isometric art perspective especially because I'm a sucker for the fallout 1 look!
Thank you so much for the detailed feedback for us!
You really nailed exactly what we were going for and yes, the world gives off exactly a rural trailer park wasteland vibe because unfortunately my tile pack that I was using did not have any sort of theme park or carnival tile sets! It is all just doom world fall out type tiles.
