Zombie models are great, game is really moody. Like how non-traditional the controls are as well. \n\nBest strat I've found is constant circle strafing.

A couple of small hitches to the gameplay but nothing major: I would have liked a bit more feedback on where I'm shooting and I feel like the WASD should be relative to the screen, not to where the character is pointing as right now I'm just pressing S.
