Hey ! Rid the city of its zombies!

Use your gun to kill the walking deads (Spacebar)

But be careful not to shoot any cityzens!

Hurry up! Follow the red arrow.

* Controls : * Left/Right - Up to jump - Spacebar to shoot.

* Made With: * Love. Game Maker, Real instruments, Photoshop, Ableton Live, Bfxr...

Listen to the original soundtrack !!

Sadly, no animations of jumping and running... I was too busy to headband...

Also, i spent too much time in the music making / recording / mixing ... But i'm happy with the resultat ! :smiley:

Ideas : More Levels // Somewhere where we can see which stage are we // Animations // A final boss...

The music is incredible. You really did this on your own? :) The game isn't the most inovative one in the world, but it's fun. Good job :)

Downloaded the Mac version, but was told it's been damaged and moved to the trash.

That music is eargasm lol, good job! Loved how much you accomplished within the timeframe. The gameplay is very basic but the mood of the entire thing is spot on!

Only guessing from video (do not have MAC) however looks good, and music is awesome - if you made that guitar sound you rock! :))

Looks really cool! I look forward to playing it when you post a windows link. Watched your youtube video and enjoyed the gameplay.

hard but fun. too bad you can't just shoot down all the people with the zombies... haha.. but that would take the challenge out of it.

Yeeahhhhh, awesome music bro. Drums are programmed? if so, what SW did you use for that?

Congrats on the entry! :D

I have some troubles with my computer... Sorry guys.

@rombus : Yeah ! I used Superior Drummer 2 and the Evil Drummer soundpack. I would love to record drums, but i'm not good enough to blastbeat so fast !! :smiley: Thank you !

@saviourgaming - @reality-blind - @nia - @maskinmask : Thanks for your feedback ;)

@abilean : I will make a special level with only zombies :D

@lhouyez : Thats explain why the game is so short and basic :smiley:

Nice work! The soundtrack really makes it stand out, that's some fantastic work for such a short time period. The gameplay is pretty difficult and could get repetitive, but the mix between jumping sections and combat ones works. Great work for such a short timeframe!

Fantastic music - maybe you could try to join a game jam team next time and take care of music only whilst the others do art and programming? No disrespect to your skills, I think you did a great job in the time given, but adding your music skills to a team could turn out to be a fantastic game!

@marc-grabow thanks ! I know that music is my main strength, but i was in a team in my last 3 LD and the games were unfinished...

So i decided for this LD to make something on my own. :smiley:

@xclementx if the Gamemaker studio version is 1.4 then I can help for making windows build(as I'm on windows 8)... If you are interested mail me @ ayushmanbilasthakur@gmail.com

@ayushman I have an GMK file... Can you open it ?

Is fun, but is frustrating that the bullets hit twice!
Marc Grabow
12. Dec 2017 · 00:01 UTC
@xclementx haha, fair enough :) Never been in a team for LD before but I always finish my games (Well, sort of :D). I guess staying on task is easier to force upon yourself. Hm. Never thought about that.

I played the Windows build and thought the game concept was interesting. I'm not sure what was going on with the bullets, but it seems that they would go through multiple targets, so I could never really progress in the game. No matter what I did, the bullets would always go through the zombie and hit a citizen.
🎤 xclementx
12. Dec 2017 · 09:02 UTC
@1gres / @professor Hey guys, i'm really sorry to hear that... It's seems like the WIndows build is really bugging. As you can see on the gameplay, the bullets are working fine on the MacOs version... I'm afraid that i have to delete the windows build :pensive:

Nice little characters art style, and nice music as well (great job on that).
Regarding the gameplay, I felt like the ennemy spawns were randomized, which was a bit frustrating when I wanted to progress through the game.
Counting the ennemies vs bullet shot in order to don't hurt civilians was a hard thing to do also :)

Anyway, you achieved a game alone in 48 hours, and well done for that!

Thank you @ekilibr ! I spent too much time on the music ahah
