About

My first jam game, finished 39th on #LOWREZJAM 2016!

Move, shoot, survive!

Yet Another Zombie Game is a wave based shooter game which plays in a dark scene where your only light source is your flash light!

You have an experimental energy based weapon FU-A1L, which can be upgraded with so called weapon mods which give your weapon different type of bullets!

But be careful, some of the upgrades are unknown and random! These random upgrades can be great or really bad! High risk, high reward? Or a huge failure? But in order to survive, you need to risk sometimes! Zombies and other creatures are coming in bigger number every wave and they're getting even faster and stronger!

Fortunately, upgrades and health can be found at the marked places after each wave! You decide to pick up a weapon randomiser or stay with your current trusted (but maybe obsolete) weapon mod!

Recommended to play in full screen mode with headphones!

Controls:

WASD / xinput left stick - move
Mouse / xinput right stick - aim
Mouse left button / left shoulder: primary fire (uses more energy)
Mouse right button / right shoulder: secondary fire (uses little energy, weak)
Mouse wheel / shoulder buttons - flash light angle
F - Fullscreen toggle
