This was a cool interpretation of the theme. The nightmare sequence was spooky. It took me a while to figure out what I was meant to do, but it was an interesting solution. Well done for making the game!

Really liked the dream scene and its solution!

I didnt really figure out how to wake up or whether it was a time based thing. But I think this would be good with more polish, nevertheless well done!

I appreciate that you just reset at the bed instead of losing when the zombie gets you, i just wish i coudl also battle the zombie. Great job

When the night starts, all obstacles I just destroyed are in the way so I can't escape the zombie. I like the idea, but I don't understand this part in the execution. I would've liked to prepare (in daylight) for the night to come. Or do I miss something?

Hey, thanks for playing! The idea was that the character was having a nightmare, that's why everything is back and in diferent spots
