You have only one shot and you have to kill millions of zombies.

Arrows to move, space to pull the trigger. You have only one bullet!
Slew zombies to get the bullet.

Go ahead! Kill all zombies!

Nice concepto.
I find the font used in the game hard to read. And when you walk over the dead zombies they are above the player.

Haha never played a game where the bullets bounce like this before! And getting the zombies to chase you into the bullet is a great concept. Only criticism is the font, hard to read. Apart from that, really good fun, looks great!

Really like the concept. Quite difficult to get those guys in front of that bullet.

Nice game! Artwork is amazing, and I do love the fact that you have to stay close to the bullet to get zombies close to it and die, risky :) nice gameplay, nice mood!

This was interesting. It didn't perform well at all in my browser though.

Really clever twist! I liked this one... and feel developing this further could have potential to become a pretty decent success.

Thanks everyone for good words.

If you see that game runs slow after level change, try to refresh the page few times. Looks like it's one of Chrome's magic.

Very good, nice game concept. I really liked the music as well!

The music was cool but the game wouldn't work for me so I haven't rated it yet. I'll try it on my desktop PC and download it. Hopefully it'll work for me then!

We thought to implement gamepad and/or tablet modes at the beginning, but time is not infinite, so had to get rid of that plans in the end. So it's keyboard only for now.

A lot of fun! Zombie behaviours are pretty unpredictable, though...

Haha a very interesting twist on the 'kill all zombies' formula. Good stuff!

I like the colors a lot, and graphics in general. It's a good use of the theme, but it's really hard, because the bullet has exactly the same speed as the zombies. I gave up very quickly unfortunately.

Cawrtz, can't remember exact speed values now, but I suppose zombies were a bit slower than bullet in usual mode. BTW, there are accelerators (green lines at wall) that you can use to speed up the bullet.
Actually I never thought about running in front of bullet, always tried to cross zombie and bullet paths.

Nice concept and artwork, however, I did find the font a little hard to read but overall, good work :)
