Hardcore RTS, Resource Management, Zombie Survival

NOTE: I realized post-upload that the hunger system is slightly broken and once they become hungry they are doomed. I fixed this within seconds when I did realize which is a bit sad. I hope you enjoy anyway

In Deadland settlers you control your little town's people and help them to collect wood and plant crops in the aim of growing your town and surviving the zombie onslaught.

- Plant and collect crops to feed your people or they will die. But the more food you store the more undead will come to take it from you.

- Build tents as shelter for your people to increase your population.

- Fight off the Zombies and defend your town.

They will Turn you Against Yourself!

When a zombie kills one of your town's folk they are themselves turned into one of them. Turned town's folk will act exactly like other zombies and attempt to kill their former friends. They will also turn those they kill into themselves.

Very good game, especially good graphics. I like how the game fit in with the theme.

Great game! The only thing that annoyed me was that people dont go back to what they did before after they killed a Zombie.

Thank you for your reviews, I plan to fix all the small things I couldn't take care of due to limited time and post it on itch.io or something.

Good game! It's fun, the only thing that stood out was that once my folk got hungry, they never went un-hungry, even with some food in storage. The hungry text just stood there the whole time.

Other than that, really good game, I like it!

Really good game! I Just felt like things were a bit to small to click, but very nice gameplay! I'm a really bad RTS player, so I didn't get much far =)
But nice game, great job!

Nice entry, really neat! I love this kind of game. One thing is they are reaaally small making difficult to select them sometimes. But overal, very nice game, good job!
