Great mashup! My only gripe is I wish the guitar hero UI were implemented differently. It's difficult to focus on the action and the song at the same time. Very solid entry, though!

I keep hitting S when I mean D :P Wish it didn't use right click since I'm on a mac with a track pad.

Awesome theme. The execution is good, however it is difficult to keep focus on what key to push - this coupled with D and L-Click being the same colour made it difficult.
The timing of the rhythm aligned well with the music.

Very neat idea! I loved the music but it was hard to maneuver myself and play the rhythm part of the game at the same time.

Awesome. The music is implemented well and goes well with the game. It would have been nice to have been told I actually had to aim as well, and the UI was hard to focus on because of that, but I had a lot of fun with it. Good job :)

Also, thanks for your feedback on my game.

First of all, congrats on completing LD41! Your game is fantastic. The idea is smart and bold and the music is amazing. I found it a little bit hard to keep focus on the UI while manoeuvring and, after a while, I ended up "button-mashing" while going around (and felt a little bit like cheating, to be honest).

Anyways, I played it a couple of times and it is super fun!

Awesome concept, though it could have used some more polish. I found it pretty hard to multitask, though I can't think of a better way to mix up the elements onscreen.

I agree with the first comment - it's hard to focus on the rhythm ui and the gameplay at the same time. The music is fantastic, though, and the concept is a perfect mashup - it totally meets the theme requirement. I really enjoyed it overall. :)

Interesting idea! But I find it really hard to focus on both at the same time.
Also, maybe the keys to trigger should be in line instead of switching from A and D (by the way, I'm on azerty) to mouses button. It could be more intuitive imho. Good work anyway!

Interesting idea, but as other said, pretty hard to focus on both gameplay ^^ I ended up more running from the zombies than shooting them to be honest x)

Overall, a strong entry, and I like the idea. Congrats!

It is a bit difficult to play, but the two genres are really well added together. I smashed the buttons at one time because of the many zombies there were :D! Keep up the good work, nice music!

Hard to play, but fun. The way you made the controls, with W/S and the mouse, while A and D were the primary guitar buttons was pretty clever. The other guitar buttons I had trouble with, but a pretty cool game regardless!

Had fun playing it, it would had been nice to have and "easy mode" for people who suck at rythm like me. But nice idea for the theme.
