Funny game. No functional throwing of items (try my best to push "x" and "space", but no effect). Strong and funny humor. Good one.Keep going.

@masterit We're sorry that you got troubles while playing our game. Were you near an object while pressing space and did you play on Windows ?

Nothing says zombie apocalypse more than a few boomerangs returning back to you with zombie stuck to one and a cupboard stucked to the other.
I played on windows with controller and everything worked fine. Well, maybe except a endless vibrations after final cutscene, which is not an issues since quit gets rid of them :]
Very fun game, found it actually pretty easy - but the carnage more than makes up for it with those nice animations and satisfying sounds. Nice entry.

Pretty good game! Perhaps a bit too frusrating for me since i kept getting bombarded by either zombies or furniture. I found that if you spammed space bar you could get away with deflecting most things without even thinking so perhaps make a cooldown or another system to stop you from doing that. I liked the music too, its a shame you didnt have any audio during the last cutscene

Nice twist on the combat, your movement speed does seem inverse to the frame rate however this is probably only an issue cause its being run on a potato in my case

Nice job! It was fun running through the level and spamming space

This game was so much fun! My poor laptop couldn't handle it at a very high framerate but I enjoyed it a lot anyway. Beautifully made, the sound is perfect, and the graphics are a very nice aesthetic. Good job! :smile:

This is a nice little gem. I encountered some bugs: when I died, my XBOX controller kept vibrating; on the second playthrough no enemies spawned. I really liked the boomerang mechanic and the artstyle. And the ending :-)
I recognized that it's easier to walk through the level without throwing anything and just avoid the zombies. If you throw a lot, it gets harder to avoid the objects than the zombies. The controls felt really good.

Fun game to play. X was not working for some reason but space was

I like the boomerang mechanic, even though things do get out of hand if you start shooting too many objects at enemies. I guess that's the point: Shoot things at enemies but not too many so you don't hurt yourself

Overall, a good experience. Well done

Awesome mechanic! Fun to mash the space bar and kill zombies. It is pretty easy and could have been fun with a bigger challenge. Also I didn't know that you can hit space again on returning items until I accidentally discovered it. Super fun game with a funny ending.

Had a blast playing this game! The mechanic of using infinitely boomeranging objects as weapons was a creative interpretation of the theme. The office setting was well made and the visual effects were indicative without being too invasive on the screen.

The music was catchy, but the intro to the game overlayed it and was a little loud at the beginning.

Also, some of the item graphics/models either didn't load when I tried to use the object as a boomerang or just dropped from seemingly no where. Some enemies would spawn near me or on top of the object that killed them when they died instead of where they stood. There were also some moments where enemies would continuously spawn. IDK if that was intentional or if I ran into the same spawn trigger multiple times.

This game was an awesome and fun experience either way! A bit of debugging here, maybe some more stories from other office workers (perhaps trying to save their turned colleagues) there and this game could be even better!

This was addictive fun! Very good job! It can be as chaotic or controlled as you want it to be. Personally, I just love to spam the X button and see stuff fly. :smiley:

Very cool and fun game, the mechanic works really well and is satisfactory to throw the objects around.
The only problem that I found is that you can complete the game without throwing an object, but very cool game regardless.

Cool! The mechanic of boomerang-throwing everything was fun and interesting. I would've liked some synergies or interactions between objects (could be a cool idea in case you spend more time on this in the future). Oh, and I love the graphics. Congratulations!

Nice game! The graphics, sound effects, and music are great! I did have issues with the throwing mechanic though. SPACE never worked, but when I switched to a controller X worked...more often. It was nice though that the zombies could kill each other - kind of made up for the inability to throw stuff and was actually fun tricking them into hitting each other. I think the blurred-motion effects might have been a bit much though. Overall, great game. Well done!
