I think the game was bit too unforgiving ^^" Here is gameplay video: https://youtu.be/fD5nZ1gACGY?t=7321
I would have wanted some way to affect my odds, and not just randomly win/tie/lose. Maybe how many zombies are nearby or something (and meter showing your survival rate :P )

Unfortunately the r/p/s mechanic feels very out of control and not a fun means of combat. Especially with the sheer number of enemies. Played as zombies for a bit, then played as humans. Couldn't find a key as humans, got 24 zombie monches.

This is a really clever use of the theme. I also liked the art in the game. I thought the hide mechanic could have been done a little better if the zombies had wandered around after you hid, instead of just staying around the trash can/maid cart.

Not a bad idea. The zombies did have a wonder around script if you're in the trashcan. However, I think you're right, we could have made them wonder a bit further, and made them walk away from the trashcan. This would give the player a better chance to escape. Especially since we had the insta death if you failed rock, paper, scissors. Thanks for the insight, and feedback. Also thanks so much for playing! ^_^

The concept is interesting. I would have liked it if the world were the same, but just your objectives changed depending on whether you were a human or zombie. Having different mobs wandering around made it feel kinda disconnected.

I enjoyed the human campaign more than the zombie campaign since there was a win scenario. My strategy was SCISSORS EVERY TIME BRO! but that only worked 1/3 of the time so idk, maybe I should have diversified. I thought the game mechanic was funny

RPS as a combat mechanic is interesting, but I agree with Tydecon that instadeath is way too punishing. 1/3 chance of having to start over from the beginning every time you touch a zombie is so annoying, especially in the left corridor where the key is when playing as a human, since it's not easy to get in and out without touching any zombies.

I like the idea here of a combat system being based around rock, paper scissors - though I do think some kind of lives system would have been better as the insta-kill for one wrong choice is harsh - though that does give you more insentive to not get attacked. Nice idea though :)
