Hi mdaniel! Thanks a lot for your feedback. The last thing I added were the audio assets (music, shooting, reloading), and the game ended up quite heavy — so yes, it definitely needs an initial loading bar. On another note, I wrote "WASD" + "R" assuming I’d be sharing the game with people who usually play, so sorry about that. The idea behind the different weapons is: pistol → accurate but a bit slow and with short range, rifle → accurate and long-range, machine gun → low accuracy and medium range. Were you able to see that there are several types of zombies? Thanks again for your comments. José.-

Apologies, I knew what WASD was in the context of gaming, I just didn't follow what behavior they influenced in the game since I was playing it with a drink in my hand at first and it seemed fine :-)

I don't recall the shapes changing, but I also gave up after acquiring the rifle because I am not the target audience for this style of game. Balatro, M:TG, Slay the Spire, Factorio, and any of the Zachtronics games are for me

I do think the game was well executed, and I hope you and Gemini are proud of shipping it, and I also hope lots of people get enjoyment from playing it!
