[raw]
made by Sebastian Caron for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

The zombies away from me is a survival game where you have to protect Billy the stickman.

Player.png

Billy Try to make the highest score possible. To kill a zombie / alien, I don't really know what I drew, just click on it.

Zombie/Alien From a score of 30, red zombies / aliens will appear, they are much bigger than the others, it takes 2 clicks to kill them.

Zombie/Alien - Red If you click on the sun, you will switch to night mode, you will only see the enemy's red eyes.

If you have reached the score of 70, you will see little green men appear.

You will also have to face the little green men, they are smaller, they are more difficult to kill.

Screen doesn't fit in with the boundaries making it hard to interact with. The volume bar is incorrectly set to 0 with sounds at full volume when you start. Some zombies seem to appear out of no where.

Took a while to get use to the controls. Given the mouse input, it would have worked better if the play area was square so circular movements could have been used and easier to click on enemies.

Simple and cool game ! Quite difficult for me (38 was my best score), I only see blue and red zombie, I'm certainly bad ahah!
Nice job !

Tested the HTML5 version.
The idea is nice, and the game seems playable. However, it might be a little bit too hard on the beginning. I sure am a poor player, but I was never able to have a score higher than 15. Sometimes, three fast enemies come from three different direction, and I just can't beat them all.
I also had a bit of lag, not sure why.

It's a simple but quite enjoyable. The HTML5 version scaling is a bit messed up, making some things get cropped in-game.

Very difficult from the outset, and could use some polish. Consider making the enemies start slow and only get faster over time. I appreciate your effort in some areas, like sound, and the visuals are basic but undeniably charming.

Hahaha why is it so difficult? but I was laughing the whole time with the art dude, that is gold. Is a complete game, for sure you can work it more but nice job!! xD

Simple but funny game. It is quite difficult though. Maybe have the hearts pile up and not just limit to three so it feels good to still get hearts whether your health is full or not. Also the credits button doesn't seem to be working. The game just showed me a black screen when I clicked it.

Simple and nice game! Difficult, but fun to play. I suggest you add an indicator of where enemies are going to come from. Overall, nice game!

Fun game, quite difficult, sometimes zombies appear in the middle of the screen and take a heart without being able to react to it.

Nice little entry, actually I managed to get higher scores by clicking multiple times instead of clicking just once. You should make sure enemies don't appear too close to the player, because it is currently really difficult :)

Fun game :-) didn't get to far though. Maybe some difficulty options (like zombie speed, start life) could help peepz like me to get further. GG

Simple works, but needs some additional mechanics to make it spicy. The graphics made me giggle, so they were good in a away!

Nice short game, very challenging with a laptop and even with a mouse! Music and sound effects were fitting as well.

Nice game but Its quite difficult for me, I didn't like the fact that you have to press the mouse button to kill the zombies.. try with the keyboard instead.

The game plays very well and is slightly more fast paced to me than I can keep up with, but that's just me. I also really liked the graphics as they were simple, yet effective.

Baguette here!
I guess 50 is actually not that bad of a score! :v:
Loving Paint-animated graphics. Was almost disappointed to find out that the credits were not done in Paint. :laughing:
Well done!

This is a really fun and addictive browser game, which fit the theme well. Maybe some alternative sound effects would have been nice. Overall, I had fun playing this game and is a good jam entry!
