Navigate your way through these treacherous woods! Beware of zombies. Read the notes after defeating all the enemies to get a clue of which path to take. Take the wrong path and you'll loop around.

Controls:

WASD/Arrows to move

Space to jump

Left click to shoot

R to reload

Q to switch weapons

Shift to sprint


Little side note: this is my first 3D jam game so I'm pretty happy with the results! Hope you enjoy!

I liked the difference between all the weapons, and the clues were simple but fun! I got to the level with the assault rifle, i assume its the last one. I couldn't find out how to progress! but nice work.

I really like the idea, although the main mechanic of shooting zombies needed a little more polish - the pistols would sometimes miss their target and you would spawn into the next level already getting hit

Wave 1 is a bit too hard. It took several attempts to kill the 3 zombies. I would give the player 5-10 seconds to situate themselves and play with the controls. Once I got the sniper, it got way easier. I would also shrink the attack range. It is easy to get stuck and destroyed in seconds. I would add a particle effect to the note at the end of each round, and show a text overlay with the control to activate it.

Good effort!

I thought it was really fun actually once I stopped being lazy and read the controls. My only criticism is that, if you aren't penalized for sprinting (like a gauge or something), you might as well just have me sprinting all the time since that's what I want to do

Really good idea and could of been clearer in areas of what you need to do and where to go but well done I had a lot of fun!

I would have loved a bit more polish on it, it wasn't the most comfortable shooter experience I've had, things like the lack of kickback on the guns or no visual indication of the damage you're dealing on the zombies made it feel like I wasn't achieving anything. Still the concept was cool, keep on trucking, man.

DItto on the other comments. Mechanics need some work but otherwise a good start!

Nice game! Perhaps you can improve the gamefeel adding a shake camera when the players shoot and when receive damage. Also, I think can be more interesting put less life to the enemies, and add more enemies! With that, I think you have a L4D mood xD. Despite these things, it's a cool game. Try to do more games!
