Hey everyone,

I'm super stoked to show you my first ever Ludum Dare entry. Hope you enjoy the little game I made!

Technologies:

* Programming Language: Javascript

* Graphics: I used PixiJS for fast in-browser rendering using WebGL.

* Sound: The was doing using Audacity (for SFX) and Bosca Ceoil (for background tune)

* Editor: Sublime Text 3

Cheers,

- Ireal

-------------

The game plays in a zombie-apocalyptic world in which no man survived.

Jerry, our lovable zombie, is visiting friends, but he has the sniffles!! They want to send him home, after all you can't zombie proper with a cold!

Jerry isn't having any of it!

Controls:

* Use arrow keys to move around

* Use Z to inhale

* Use V to sneeze

Make sure you don't inhale too long!

Enjoyed this, I like the unusual method is attack

Sneezing as a weapon? 10/10 would sneeze again!
Gameplay is funny and not to hard.

Love how they start running away as you inhale. Bless you!

Nice soundtrack! Liked the sound effects too XD

Nice. Strange way to attack ... you must have have laughed throughout the development. It would have nice to have be able to sneeze more.

Yea, I caught myself laughing loudly at times, especially while implementing the sound effects! :D

hahahaha this is very funny and surprisingly difficult. I like that the common cold is worse than the zombie apocalypse

i had no sound/music when i played the web version with safari.
the mechanic was fun without any audio though :)

I liked this a lot, fun idea and well executed too. I like how the other zombies runs away when you start preparing the sneeze... Became a bit easy after I got the hang of it (standing in the right puddle, sneezing of all that came close). Would be nice with a win condition. Nevertheless, one of my favorites this far :)

Pretty good. I like that you didn't go with the obvious idea of infecting humans to become zombies!

Nice entry, catchy soundtrack!

Cute concept! A pity I can't aim my sneeze.
