Not bad...
Actually I think the idea could make it if you tried doing a more Resident Evil clone or perhap adding the series of that game. 10/10

GHETTO ZOMBBIES LOLZ
Started Out Great
Graphics are amazing. Great proportion, great realistic art style, but my favorite part about them was the lighting. It was very intricate and really set the mood nicely.
Sounds were good too. Good quality, definitely spooky.
The gameplay was good but it was a little obscure and abstract. You could only blow up a plastic bag in one spot, and the answers to some things are in odd places with little reason. Since the player's on drugs it makes more sense, but it seems like the story fits the gameplay instead of the gameplay fitting the story. Also, it could have been better if you randomized the codes and the displays, like displaying random numbers that corresponded with random answers. It would have made walkthroughs harder to exploit the game. The crap in the hallways that appeared and vanished made no sense, either. Also, I didn't like the learning curve. First try, F, second try, S. Is it really supposed to be that rigid?
The rest of it was damn stylish, though. You played on the horror element of keeping the player ignorant, which made it scary as hell. You couldn't tell if they were aliens or if it was some conspiracy or zombies or what. I actually thought it was zombies until I saw the windows bricked up. Damn scary, though. By the time you get to the point where you can kill yourself with a collapsing ceiling, it loses a little of its edge. It's just unrealistic, and weird that you find clock hands lying around in random places. The entire game reminded me of Reverb fused with a generic point-and-click. It needed more, like the lock-picking minigame and stuff like that. The game is too spontaneous.
As for the epilogue, I thought it was rather cliche. Most of the people in the US are already so ignorant we probably don't need drugs to be brainwashed into killing people. Look at the school shootings and stuff; it happens every week. While it's interesting that the player is on drugs, and it wasn't what I was expecting, it might have been better if there were no explanation. It would be unsatisfying but at least you couldn't ruin anything. It was decent, I guess, but definitely not as good as the rest of it.
dam
i have a D XD
