It's kind of funny to see the big grin on my lonely survivor. It starts a bit slow, but then the zombies come in fast!

Still, let's see how you can make things a bit better.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Firstly, add some better feedback. A slight bump back if you hit a zombie would be good enough, at least you know you've hit then. I know the sound is also feedback, but it's less obvious.\r<br\/>Secondly, work on the graphics, and usually, especially for programmers, less is more. So maybe, instead of weird-looking grass, just use a solid darker green. It gets the point across, but it just looks better. Using more abstract art, especially for programmers, usually works well.\r<br\/>Don't worry too much about the sound, hell, you had more sound than my entry!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>So yeah, keep going, keep trying, try to get a bit of a feel for what looks a bit better, and you'll be golden!"},{"author_name":"01rafael","author_uid":"11984","time":"Dec 20, 2014 @ 10:54pm","epoch":1419115740,"text":"Music is so lovely!"}],"images":["ld31\/28460-cbd683e641fbf6546ac9664662691ed1.jpg","ld31\/28460-72aababfddba18dd1cd80ff1a657c0be.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/arcade\/death-in-front\/41232\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/ianid.github.io\/games\/GAME\/scripts\/game.js","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"13939","g_author":"28460","g_event":"LD31","g_eventkey":"26","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"13969","g_title":"Death in front","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"967","g_commentcount":"18","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/28460-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/28460-shot1.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Death in front is a game in which you are the last survivor of a zombie apocalypse (a big cliche).
