Made for BEST Game Jam Leuven 2025
Ever woken up and felt like a zombie? This zombie feels like that...
Walk around your graveyard, kill enemies and upgrade yourself by attaching their bones to yourself. Careful! If your bones break you lose all the attached limbs! Make sure to use milk to strengthen yourself and your bones.

Theme of the Jam: Fractured
We spent the first 5 hours of the jam brainstorming about a core mechanic and loop, making sure they would be fun and expandable. We settled for a vampire survivors-like game with the following twists: you can infinitely increase your range and damage by attaching enemies bones onto yourself and can heal yourself and these limbs using milk.
Apart from the set dressing and pumpkin, which were made by Jente Aerts, I made all of the assets and animations from scratch during the game jam (52 hours). It had been a while since I did pixel animation, and I'm super happy with what I was able to achieve during the short time we had. I tried going for a more dark & cool vibe but in the end it turned out goofy and cute anyways (it's my eternal curse).
