Its really fun but how do you get food!!
Reviews for "The Rose is Blooming"
So, after devoting quite a number of hours to this game, I'm semi-satisfied. The first MANY
attempts I went through resulted in an average 200 days of survival. Only when I encountered a
group of badasses twice in Newgrounds headquarters was I really able to take off. After easily
making it to 500 days with a very sizeable stockpile of food and the best weapon (the katana,) I
began to play for armor. At 800 days, with only a mustache, a large bowie knife, and a katana, I
realized my dream of badassery. No more armor remained, and so it was finished. Everything to
critique has been critiqued below already, so I digress. Good game overall, you held my attention
for longer than most games, and for that I salute you.
Great. Loved it. But maybe a little more customization and open choice, and easier to find weapons. PLEASE!!!!
Hello, I love the game I'm at day 510 and still have enough food for 104 more days. I have to admit though the event "You encounter a merchant who wishes to trade some armor. He wants 50 bullets for it." seems quite pointless as the super zombies appearing as much as they this late in the game makes it so you almost always have close to no bullets --and medkits too but I have no problem with that-- left. But all-in-all great game, great concept, and funny text. I hope you continue to make more games if you have more like this.
It's already pretty good, but I would love to see more strategy- and less luck-based game-play, e.g. by linking high-risk to high-gain events and vice versa (e.g. locations with strong zombies and more useful items and vice versa).
PS. You loose med-kits or bullets when you encounter the super-zombie, but never food items. As long as you exchange/use the med-kits and bullets as quickly as possible after you obtain them, you are relatively safe (also see T-sense's comment below). Perhaps you should change that and make it possible to loose food as well?
@dandycool: Giving a 0-star rating because of some bug with the medals is just not cool dude ...
