You nailed it, great game.

I really love games in this perspective. The concept, the animations, the controls, and everything were really great. The only gripe I have is the controls, but I understand why they were designed that way. Apart from that, though, it was very well made. Great entry!

Huge!!! Was a incredible experience, thought I suffered a lot of skill issue.

The wheelchair rolling over zombies is very fun to play with.

Good luck ;)

Great concept and such a good vibe overall! Feel free to check out Fever Knight too if you're up for it 🔥

Мега хайп. Управление на 10/10 (и это можно считать одной из оригинальностей и крутостей)

Спасибо :D

It looked fun, I really wanted to play, but wasn’t able to scroll, because page will just scroll.

Yeah you have to play it full screen. You just have to click on the enlarge button in the lower right corner

At first I thought the controls were terrible because when I would scroll up or down my whole page would scroll, which almost made me leave, but then I remembered that full screen existed.  I still might prefer WASD for the controls though.  I cleared the first level but I kept dying over and over on the second level so I gave up.  I saw a gun in the gameplay video but I only ever used my wheelchair to destroy zombies.  Maybe I would have found it in the second level if I had explored some more.

I’m not seeing fullscreen option in this one. How were you able to go fullscreen?

It is on the bottom right of the web player window (not sure you can see this screenshot)

well polished game and a very interesting idea with the player controls. it is quite painful to use on a trackpad though!

Fun concept, lots of small polish that makes it feel bigger than a jam game

Just a fantastic entry! Lots of fun!

What an incredible concept!
Having the mouse wheel mapped to pushing the wheels on a wheelchair felt so obvious and intuitive the moment I got in the chair, and the movement mechanics gave an 'easy to learn, difficult to master' feeling that was so satisfying.
I was genuinely getting stressed out as the zombies were closing in, until one finally got me at the elevator.

Really, really cool!

Very cool idea for the controls. In the second level I got stuck in a dead end as it seemed. Then I got carpal tunnel syndrome from all the scrolling. But I like it, it's not for the weak handed ;-)
