Unfortunately your loved one was bitten and become a Queen of the zombies. Now it’s your time to save the world. Or may be save her?\nWho knows…
\nControls are usual: W,A,S,D + mouse aim and buttons for shooting
\np.s.: This is my first game ever build. So don’t be too harsh on a judgement ;)

\nI felt the direction buttons might be more intuitive if they relate to the character not the map. For example pressing forwards when facing EAST should to EAST rather than NORTH.
\nThe graphics good but were a bit small on my monitor, had to zoom in.

I like how the character has weight and inertia, and doesn’t stop immediately when you release the button.
\nI realize this is your first smol game. Don’t stop, you’re on the right track.

Some indicator where the next zombie spawns (dirt particles moving around) could have helped.

\nGood job.

I have “search as you type” enabled in my browser, so every time I press a key it brings up the search. You should call .preventDefault() for all keyboard events to prevent this.
I love the cover art and graphics in the game, really cool concept!
\nFrom the gameplay side, I like running around and shooting zombies, it would be even better if there was some music or other sound effects. It would also be nice to include some kind of score in the game but besides that, great job, I enjoyed this game very much and I wish you good luck with (hopefully) future developed games!

Sorry if I’ll sound harsh, but i have lots of comments; don’t take it too hard, I’ll try to be constructive.\nFirst the good parts: the graphics are really great. LOVE the cover image like in old games. The zombie movements also seem pretty well implemented. Good job on that!\nThe shooting is kinda slow. It becomes frustrating having to wait for the bullets to hit the zombies, specially with so many zombies.\nI get stuck on obstacles a lot. Maybe you could be a bit more lenient on the hit boxes, or only let me move on a grid.\nI’ve no clue what the blue potions are for.\nWhen i go outside the map, i get teleported to a different map and appear in a random location. This is really disorienting and doesn’t make much sense, I should at least appear on the border. Is there a technical reason why the map can’t be a single continuous open area?\nFinally, is there a goal to the game? You say in the description that I’m supposed to save the world or my wife, but the game seems to be just about zombies. I couldn’t play long enough to see the game change.\nThis game is begging for some horror music and shooting sound effects.

\nThe movement-controls should be more “direct” not so “slipperly”.
