Thoroughly enjoyable game with well developed and engaging combat mechanics combined with a challenge that you don't usually see in rpg maker, aside from a few passability and balancing issues (last boss needs to be tougher ), I found the demo's narrative and dialogue to be interesting as well for its duration. Looking forward to a full version

Okay so this game has so much plot and action packed into 1 hr it's almost unbelievable. I feel like I want to know more about the characters with each event and encounter. I would love to see this project go further! Did I mention the battle system is freaking awesome?! This game is a unique Zombie Thriller that anyone is bound to love. PLAY IT NOW!

Well, so I finally decided to activate my account here to let people know how much of a great game this is. Thread necromancy or not! (Not that it's that old!)

I'll just copy paste the little review I made on the contest page here too, since, I don't think I can word myself much better than I did there.

The story and aesthetic are brilliant. And the main character is one of the most likable 'thugs' I have ever seen,

hell, as a gay female I found myself thinking of him as attractive despite having nothing feminine about him. It was his personality. It made me want to figure out what his past was like,

made me WANT to save his friends and beat up his enemies. Though even that was less straightforward than it seemed.

While I myself stopped using auto-scroll text, the way it ties in to the music makes me understand that part too. There are some bugs that need to be ironed out,

but other than that, I really enjoyed playing the game, the battle system started out extremely confusing, but once I viewed it as something more like a fighting game than a standard RPG that too turned out to be great.

Hey there! 

so here's a little something for you




And just in case you are busy learning Systema yourself, because its awesome, here's words (yeah words!)

Nice work here! love your whole system and how it all works together it's put together very nicely! 

Your character are colorful and well defined, it makes it easy to care for them, or NOT care is some ways 

The storyline is awesome, although sometimes a bit paced akwardly, the whole idea that we are in a zombie outbreak but mainly fighting thugs to survive in prison is a fresh touch. 

There's a few bugs here and there, one is especialy crippling, when you enter the execution room and would like to turn back, because i'm an idiot for exemple, you can't go back in...lol? Apart of that it's not really that bad so no worries! 

Also, the "moment of weakness" the last boss has...yeah....it's more a: "moment of holly****hitmenowandi'mgoingtodiesomuchyouwillnotbelievethis weakness"... you might want to tone it down...just sayan

in other words.

Good job A+ looking forward for the continuation

Have a good one!
