Restart the game to replay. I had a restart button, but it was bugged.
Try to survive in a zombie apocalypse. Collect ressources, but be carefull to not carry too much since weight will slow you down and the noise will attract zombies.
Have fun!

Now there is a price on the game? WTF
Works now
As @kothead mentioned I also think the game need some kind of "motivation" to fight. And the game right now is a bit too easy to show its concept.
IMO the game would be at its best when players feel the dilemma of having to choose between either stocking lots of ammo/food for better chance of survival or carrying little for less chance of being detected.
Anyway it's a solid game & concept, right now it mostly need some sound I think :)
The only thing missing here is the sounds which I wish there was.
Otherwise, great game, i had fun playing it! :)
The first time I ran out of bullets and then couldn't do anything but run away. But you move so much faster than the zombies that that wasn't a problem. Really I just wished that I had somewhere to go. That was true in general. I mostly just wanted a reason to do anything, or for it to be much harder. There could be more zombies appearing, or if they had better path finding I might have had more problems on my hands. As it was I just had to line them up so most of them got caught on a corner and shoot the few that made it around.
Lastly, the mac version crashed on me several times, though I appreciate that you built one.
I think that with a few more features it could be really fun.
Anyways, I think this has a lot of potential; if you do keep working on it I would definitely be interested in playing it.
I really hope that you have learnt a few lessons from this and build on. Work on this game, make it look nicer (not just graphically but aesthetically). All in all, this game is a huge achievement. Congratulations! :smile:
