Really good 2D shooter, only issue for me is getting used to the controls. It's also really hard, I find, but that's only cuz I suck at games where you have to stay in one area and defend from large hordes of enemies. The power ups are a lot of fun and will keep me engaged with this one for a while. Also I love the Evil Dead movies and TV show.

Beautiful pixel art style, I like the gameplay (L) 10/10
this game is not what i expected its a bit too alien hominid than a survival game based on the evil dead too many flying monsters would be better if we had more walking deadites instead of twenty five flying lindas
it has potential like the groundworks are already set up we just need it to feel more like nacht der un toten a desperate battle like in the film
cool game, just need to know woh the fuck spends there day grinding to 22k points.
good
