Welcome !




Zombie Arena is a dynamic and funny 2D  shooter, where you kill zombies. Lot of 'em.

In a procedurally generated arena, you will be submerged by dozens of walking deads, but dont worry : you will also get some heavy and fully loaded weapons to break them.

Pick guns, try to survive and remember to watch your back !

The game is now available on desktop, just download the .zip archive and launch the zombiearena.exe file.

If you wish, you can make a donation for this game.
I had to invest in a Construct 3 license (90 $) , so the objective is to reimburse this cost. If you want to support me and encourage me, eventually, to make other games (which takes a lot of time, even for an amateur), don't hesitate to give a dollar or two !

Good luck, and have a nice play !

PS : Do not hesitate to rate the game :)

J'ai aimé ce jeu. Ce gameplay est très simple, mais il est aussi intéressant. Très génial.

really nice game, i liked it. I'm curious about the map, what procedural generation algorithm did you used to make it like that

Hello, and thx for the nice comment !

Here is my procedural logic, step by step :

1) fill space with solid sprites (16x16)

2) generate squares (dozen) of different areas randomly placed

3) remove solid sprites in contact with squares to generate "rooms"

4) the rooms are large enough to overlap and create gaps between them (solide obstacles)

5) add graphics (solids = walls / empty = floor)

6) profit

Have a nice play !

you could add a pause mechanic just a little thing  you dont have to add it though

Hey super fun game! Congratulations! I had a hard time with those zombies xD

I have a similar game, and I'd love to hear your feedback! https://beorgames.itch.io/hero-battle-fantasy-arena

you should expand on this more because it feels like top down doo

Very amazing base game. Could sue expanded levels, upgrades and variations. Sounds, feels and controls amazing.

THIS IS SUPER FUCKING INTENSE IT FUCKING DOOM 2.0 ADD MULTIPLAYER I WANT MORE OF THIS SHIT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

nice game, would like it if it had more types of levels or like a level theme selection instead of it being the same type of environment. i give this one  solid 8/10 

pls add multiplayer is a weadeful game

IS THERE A MELE WEAPON??????????

No, this game is no longer in development. Thank you for playing !

awesome...cool...fantastic.........

the game and the gameplay were both fun and fantastic. Keep it up.

the difficulty curve and progression system also feels good.

overall fun and nice game to play.

Can be improved further by adding more guns,traps,background colors to the map and enemy types.

Best of luck ;-)

Hi, thank you for your advices and feedback. This game is no longer in development, but I'am thinking about a new one, when I'll have time ;)

Bye

You got it, bud!

i like this game

Why is the SMG burst fire? Was it really that hard to make it automatic? Also the hit sound is louder that the gunshots. Would be nice if there were some kind of powerups or something to help you in a pinch. Also i think you should add a muzzleflash when you shoot. I think using the whole mouse wheel is unnscesary, especially when you cant just move it a bit and change the gun, no you need to scroll up for the second weapon and down for the first one, no other way. I think there should just be a "swith guns" button. You probably also should make some more sounds, because i want to hear my enemies getting exploded into guts.

Hi, thank you for your feedback.

Un-automatic SMG is a gameplay choice I made, of course it is simple to make it automatic but I won't ;). That's a balance issue, automatic SMG would have been too much powerful...

For the rest, I consider this game "done", with all its defaults and lacks, it's my first game (and I am proud of it !). I'm working on a second game (a top down shooter too), exploring different ways of basic gameplay.

Have a nice play !

So much fun! This game reminds me of a game called Nuclear throne. ;)

wow! this is really fun!!! It would be good if map have traps like spikes or lasers

Very nice game! And good sound!

is it possible to play in fullscreen?

Good game lad very cool

This is really awesome!

It reminds me a bit of a top down DOOM with the "shoot all the f**king monsters with ALL the guns!" I also liked the paralax effect you made for the map! (Also can we take a moment to appreciate the music?)

Things I would change are make it easier to switch weapons, number keys did not work for me... And just add more stuff, more enemies like ones that charge to you in straight lines, enemies that shoot back at you and big "boss" zombies that take long to kill, more weapons like a long range sniper and maybe powerups? I could see speed, damage or health powerups fitting in nicely with the rest of the game!

Hi !

Thank you for your commen.t !

I'm currently working on new content, like different zombies, more weapons and some lootable stuff (life, ammo...). Oh, yes, ammo will be limited next time :D

Thank you for playing and enjoying the game :)

Yay, those seem like some good changes!

But what if you have no ammo left? Will you get a melee weapon, will you be helpless until you find more ammo or will you just switch guns? I would like the second one ;)
