You've got a lot of space on the screen that you don't seem to be using, though, since there's only one level of platforms to jump to. I'd suggest some way to use all of that space, either by making your HUD bigger or extending gameplay into those regions. Still a pretty good effort all the same!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"asixjin","author_uid":"1001497","time":"2017-12-07T03:28:41Z","epoch":1512617321,"modified":1512617321,"text":"I think this would work better as a top-down game or if there was more room to move.

I like the graphics and the style of the game. One problem I had was that death seemed inevitable after some time, as there was nowhere to go to dodge the zombies. The platforming engine had some problems too, but otherwise I enjoyed myself.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"SaraMartins","author_uid":"1009959","time":"2017-12-14T02:00:08Z","epoch":1513216808,"modified":1513216808,"text":"This was a nice game, with a good concept. The controls were simple, the premise too. However death was imminent with the increase of the zombie number.\n\nThe splatter animation was really nice, it remembered me of the splatter animation on an old game called Bio Menace.\n\nI do think that the game doesn't have much connection to the theme, as the connection \"the more time you have the worse it is\" is not really clear here as you don't have time, time is spent. Also, the background music is a little off from the game theme (too bubbly).\n\nBut overall it was enjoyable, good work :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Triastase","author_uid":"1009566","time":"2017-12-25T12:26:48Z","epoch":1514204808,"modified":1514204808,"text":"Hey!

However transition from SMG to Sniper and then to autgun is i bit disorientating as you have to quickly switch tactics to really opposite ones.\n\nAlso weapon variety is a bit low... All the differences between SMG and Thompson seem to be erased by Zs having more HP now.\n\nMixing in odditional features like recoil, splash damage, knockback on enemies etc would make a game more interesting.\n\nAlso some hint to what would the next weapon be and how soon it would kick in, would be helpful","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Joror","author_uid":"1000362","time":"2017-12-25T20:17:25Z","epoch":1514233045,"modified":1514233045,"text":"Nice start to a cool shootem! Liked how the guns change up as you go - would have been nifty to announce the levelup more in the game. \nTo mix things up a bit a few more platforms would perhaps also add some diversity \/ tactics, or things like headshots doing more dmg or giving more XP.\n\nUnfortunately I only got up to the sniper, I am curious how the other guns work. :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Paulo Brunassi","author_uid":"1036163","time":"2017-12-25T21:44:46Z","epoch":1514238286,"modified":1514238286,"text":"Fun game, I liked when the zombies stack up. haha","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld40\/50225-af50534e0b8bb6d50f1a0cbbe5af9ba7.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/dvz\/301649","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"37222","g_author":"1006830","g_event":"LD40","g_eventkey":"70","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"251210","g_title":"DvZ","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"906","g_commentcount":"8","g_site2_node_id":"50225","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"50225","n_urlkey":"251210","n_parent":"49883","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/dvz","n_slug":"dvz","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"6830","n_created":"1510169312","n_modified":"1512440390","n_version":"190745","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":50225,"parent":49883,"superparent":9,"author":6830,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2017-12-05T02:19:50Z","created":"2017-11-08T19:28:32Z","modified":"2017-12-05T02:19:50Z","version":190745,"slug":"dvz","name":"DvZ","body":"This is DvZ, it stands for \"Dave versus Zombies\".
