More of a tech demo, but a very fun one! Reminds me of Shadow of Mordor and Totally Accurate Battle Sim.

I think making a game in this style in 48 hours was very ambitious. The game definitely needs a bit more time in the oven, mechanically, as there was no challenge once I had a few followers. I would have liked to hear some sound effects and maybe see some feedback on the hits. I'd like to see where you take it, if you choose to work on it a bit more. Thanks for the game.

The idea is good, but a lack of different enemies and some additional spells to make gameplay more interesting.

This is an interesting concept, and is executed pretty well, but there isn't much to it. I did like what I saw, just wish I could play some more! Good work either way.

Cool concept. The enemies / zombies often just stand chilling around. Its a cool mechanic to introduce in a bigger game tho :)

It is a nice concept but I found the game itself rather buggy. I often got stuck in between my zombie followers - they refused to move, and I was unable to get out. Also, both enemies and followers were often just standing or swinging their weapons in place, attacking empty air.
