Hello!
So this is our game, Deep Space Infection, a top down shooter where you defend yourself against an infinite horde of zombies, yep, you are the only man left and I can assure you, you might struggle to hold out with the amount of enemies after you, just sayin'.

Controls:

Movement is WASD,
Arrow keys to shoot.

All of the Code and mechanics and technical stuff is made by Tokw.

All of the artwork and sprites and stuff is made by firefox111197 (me)

The sound, or actually the only sound is not made by us, and here is the link of where we got it:
https://www.freesound.org/people/tcpp/sounds/77340/

You can find firefox111197 on Tumblr

And you find Tokw on Tumblr as well

Be warned, it's Tumblr.

Thanks for reading,
and enjoy the game.

All that happened when I tried to play is a static image that says 'Press space to survive' at the bottom? Nothing happened when I pressed anything.

Love the graphics, but man those crab things are hard to get :)

Cool graphics! Normal twin-stick shooter, but hard to control--no friction, and only one movement key works at a time. (You can use a "if this key, add one to x vel, if this key, add one to y vel" approach instead of else ifs to avoid this in the future.)

the small ones are too fast xD ..would be better aim with mouse.

Spoiler alert: you can stand behind the crate to the right and shoot left and score big without getting hurt. I should write a guide book for this game. :P

Sorry to say i was a bit underwhelmed, haha - lots of fleshing out to do here, though the i liked that there were different enemies, there was a cheesy "safe point" you could just spam from.

Felt like I was on ice! Pretty hard to control movements. Otherwise it was a pretty entertaining top-down shooter, congrats!

Fun game. I liked the top-down style and the controls worked OK after I reread that the arrow keys are for shooting. (Could not make that out on myself.)
A health bar could be more useful than just a number in the corner.

Cool! The controls are quite hard (kinda feels like your guy is sliding around on ice :P) but I like the way the bullets ricochet off the walls :) Nice graphics.

In some of his last moments, Bob the space marine wondered, "Why did I never learn to shoot diagonally in weapons training?"

In some of the rest of his last moments, Bob wondered who had coated the cargo bay floor with ice.

Didn't really work for me, couldn't turn and Space Bar didn't work (Mac Unity Web Player)

Very slippery player movement; it was kinda like I was an air hockey puck of death!

Looks nice, not a fan of the arrows keys for shooting though, the movement seemed very slidey.
