About
This game was made to participate in the CPC Retrodev 2022, and it is our first game for the Amstrad CPC computer.
You play as Disco Mike, who was having fun in the best disco of the city, when suddenly some zombies joined the party! Disco Mike won't let anyone ruin his night, even if they are zombies, so grab your vinyls, step on the dance floor and show them the moves.

As CPCRetroDev 2022 was celebrating it's 10th anniversary, we included a little easter egg as a reference to Lárcena`s Legacy in the game. One of the enemies is very similar to the promotor, a character of the game.
