As others have said, the difficulty ramps up too quickly, and I think there should be more moments of calm, maybe with special zombies that explode when dying and kill everyone around them, or some drops to get better but limited weapons.

The pixel art is crispy and polished, I like the fact that you got separate sprites for each direction the player's aiming at. The sound effects are nice too with the gunshot and hurt sounds, they really made the experience more enjoyable.\n\nBut there're little things that I bothers me. First is the difficulty curve, the game gets hard really quickly, roughly around 1 minute from the start, I didn't even get pass 50% of the battery before I died. Second, I found out that it's hard to deal damage to the zombies sometimes, maybe because of the hitbox is rather small or the bullets just failed to detect for collision against them.\n\nBut regardless, this is a very well done entry with a simple and fun gameplay, and don't forget the mood is peak.
