Dead on the move by thetacbanana

[raw]
made by thetacbanana for Ludum Dare 45 (COMPO)

An old school NES shoot'em up where you fight on top of your trusty Van Nothing.

Use your arsenal of weapons to fight off trucks of zombies and stop them from infecting you, or falling off of your Van into the fast speeding by road.

Assault Rifle: Fully automatic but does low damage, effective for medium to long range encounters

Shotgun: Inaccurate but high damage means its effective at taking down Zombies close range

Rocket Launcher: High damage explosive, perfect for taking out hostile vehicles

Keyboard and mouse input only:

AD - Move Space - Jump Left Mouse - Shoot 1, 2, 3 - Weapon Select

Source code is included on the itch.io page

Thanks for playing my game

I got my score to 7500 and then there didn't seem to be any further enemies spawning. Some sound effects and music would have added a lot but I found it interesting and fun. Fighting on top of a car had interesting gameplay.

Pretty cool - one thing if you're doing 'pixel' art though, is to keep the scale consistent , the weapons / vechicles and characters are all at different resolutions.

If you're spriting - maybe lay them all out in the same image/document first, so they can all be upscaled the same. ![ld45_db-036.jpg](///raw/028/2/z/29940.jpg)
