Don't let the zombies get to survivors. Kill them 10 seconds after they spawn. Get moneys for killing zombies. Buy new weapons, upgrade the wall, buy lawn mowers, upgrade your skills. And try to get secret weapon. Zombie speed and health increases each round.

Yes, the game goes for forever. !!!TO CHANGE THE WEAPON after buying it, you have to choose it in the store.
Btw I made it on my birthday, i turned 15 today :D And I am the only participator from my country (Moldova) Hope you will enjoy playing my second LD game
There weren't any statistics on the weapons, and they mostly felt the same once I stopped using the pistol.
I didn't get to the mystery weapon because I wondered what happened if the timer got to 0. I lost, even though I could have still shot the last zombie. This is weird.
I didn't realize I could move until the 3rd or 4th wave. Usually the arrow keys work.
The shotgun didn't feel any stronger than the pistol, it didn't seem to spread or over-penetrate.
Loved it! That impact sound is great and its a good simple concept. The buying mechanic is great but I didn't see a giant difference between the two machine guns.
Fun, but way too easy. Also, I eventually ran in to a bug where one last zombie knocked the wall down, but time was up and I couldn't shoot anymore. Instead of coming through and killing somebody, he just stood there and the wave never ended.
Nice game. Quite fun, though I dislike these repetitive power yourself up games. It is very polished, no bugs that I could find. Dunno if there is an ending to this. Oh yeah, surprise weapon was quite nice too.
Very nice! The store kept me engaged a lot longer than I would have been otherwise. I kept playing b/c I had to know what the secret weapon was! I wasn't disappointed.
As for difficulty, once I had the minigun I felt like I could play forever. I also eventually learned that, since range didn't really matter, the best tactic was to just sit still at one end of the wall rather than running around back and forth.
Not sure why damage is an upgrade since everything seems to be a one hit kill anyway...
Also, shotgun felt like a downgrade from the machine gun. I do think the store and/or weapons need some balancing in general.
Finally, extra bonus points for making me feel all that retro nostalgia :)
Hey Boddiul! You used the same tools as me this LD. (GM and SFXR) Im impressed by what you made... can never survive long enough to unlock the secret weapon. I enjoyed this 5 stars a lot
I love shooting things. This was a game about shooting things. It was great!! I featured it in a Ludum Dare 27 compilation video, if you would like to check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-HQ96z_y-M
Played until I got the 15k weapon (which was great), lots of fun. Got pretty easy near the end, and the sounds were a bit glitchy, other than that great entry!

It's an interesting start.
