Zombie Grinder by demonpants

[raw]
made by demonpants for LD17 (COMPO)
IF YOU CAN'T RUN THIS, PLEASE EMAIL ME: demonpants [at] gmail.com . Java naturally is not write once port anywhere like it claims. I'd like to figure out whatever wacky porting problems might exist. Thanks!

***************EDIT:
Realized that I could change the download link titles, so now it's more obvious how to get the version with sound (it used to be linked at the bottom of this post). If you haven't played with sound yet, please do so! I only included the option the first time because the sound version is 35mb.

This is Zombie Grinder!

You are on an island trying to escape a zombie onslaught. It comes from the left - you've got to keep running towards the right! Eventually you'll reach your ship, at which case you're safe and you've won!

You can't be killed by individual zombies; the worst they can do is slow you down. However, if you touch the horde, then you die! You may also see other islanders fighting off zombies - they're great distractions!

Move with the arrow keys.
Punch and kick with Z and X.
Jump by pressing Z and X simultaneously.
Double tap an arrow to run.

Enjoy!

Uses Java with Java Webstart (all Java-enabled OS's should be able to run it). Runs on OpenGL using LWJGL.
Edit - I changed the download to a Java Webstart to make it easier on everyone. Also added a couple more screenshots.
