Easily one of the most fun game in this jam. I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that there can be multiple solutions based on our interpretation thank you for this much needed dopamine.

Developer

Thanks a lot for your kind comment :)

It would be fun to see how different the people solved the levels :)

im glad you enjoyed it :)

Charging into the zombies was the most satisfying experience in this jam, lol

Developer(+1)

haha thanks :) it was fun making the splash sound effects into the mic  :)

Submitted

what a wild game. I think i failed every run. But i had alot of fun so thats really what matters.

Developer

Thanks for playing and im happy you had fun :)

I probably made the levels a bit too hard need to work on that :)

Submitted

Interesting idea and well executed. It's amazing that you did everything yourself - code, art and music! The itch description is very helpful with the level solutions.

Developer

Thanks a  lot for playing :)

I really like to do everything myself even thou the sound and art come out super weird sometimed :)

Submitted

Great entry, i love the parallax-scrolling, the fact that you can build your own zombie-punisher, the variety of possible level-solutions is also neat.

One thing: scroll the build-area into view when starting the level. I got many "Machine must be placed in the build area"-errors on my first try, until i zoomed around and found the green area :D

Developer

Thankf for playing and the feedback :)

Yes I made a dumb mistake. If you dont press anything it will zoom zo the build area. But because i was not patient i made it skip if i press any button. In hindsight bad design choice :)

Happy you liked it :)

Submitted

Cool  game :D Easy to adapt and makes fun to build some crazy vehicles

Developer

Thanks a lot for playing :) it would be interesting to see what kind of machines the different people create :)

Submitted

Interesting idea, awesome job! Leaving a rating for sure. 5/5

Developer

Thanks, im happy you liked it :)

Interesting idea but was not able to see the build area initially.. seems like a bug. i think the controls feel like an interesting choice that I've never seen before so took some time to equate myself with the right click paradigm but feel like this game has potential for sure! 

Developer

Thanks for playing and for the feedback. :)
The right click wasnt the best choice 

Submitted

I found the choice of controls a bit peculiar since using the right-click for navigating and viewing things can be problematic. It often triggers the browser's right-click menu since it's being played in a browser. I think if this were a fully installed game, that issue wouldn’t occur. 

The visuals here remind me of those old flash games, giving it an almost nostalgic vibe. 

Developer (1 edit)

That is weird i never had that issue. Can you tell me what browser you used? maybe i need to test better :/
Thanks for the feedback :)

Submitted

Very fun gameplay, bad piggies vibe. Enjoyed it, great work!

Developer

thank a lot for playing. im glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

this is so good game, i love building and customize like this. Really enjoy that.

Developer

so glad you enjoyed it :)

Submitted

I love your idea. Sadly I wasn't able to play it because I never saw the green area :(. Can you fix it ?

Developer

Oh no. Did you move the camera around with right mouse button? The build area is on the left side. Ill have to investigate this bug

Submitted

Nice game! Letting players build their own machine is a really fun idea. I didn't realize there was money in the game until I tried building a giant machine.

Developer

Money was an early implementation, later i realised that its not really needed but didnt have time to cleanly remove it :)

glad you liked it :)

Submitted

The blade part killing all zombies is very satisfying.

Developer

Thanks :)  it was very fun making the splash noise with the mic 

Submitted

Fun game! It really lets the player be creative and I love how there add-ons that can be activated, it increases the interactivity a lot. + points for making the sound effects and art yourself!

Developer(+1)

Thanks a lot for playing im glad you enjoyed it :) soundeffects is always a fun time to make

Submitted

Yes it's like instant improvement to the game when you add sound effects, super satisfying :D

Submitted

Nice game
