Alive 2 Survive is a swipe-to-survive game where you must make tough life or death decisions to keep your group alive for as long as possible in the zombie apocalypse. NOTE: I listed the game under puzzle, but it's really a card/story/adventure hybrid. Below is the complete game description and feature list: The zombie apocalypse has begun! Swipe your way through life or death decisions to keep your group alive for as long as possible. DAILY DECISIONS Swipe left or right each day to make important decisions for your group as you strive for balance between soldiers, followers, elders, and your limited resources. Each choice can be the difference between your group surviving the apocalypse or becoming part of the zombie horde. CHOOSE YOUR DESTINY Are you a ruthless, cold-blooded killer who will do anything to keep your group alive? Do you put preserving civilization and your way of life over the lives of individuals? Or are you just living day-to-day to enjoy whatever pleasures you can find in this zombie infested world? You make the choices that determine your fate and live the post-apocalyptic life you always dreamed of. BALANCE OF POWER Strive for balance between soldiers, followers, elders, and your limited resources. The soldiers protect the group from zombies and other hostiles, but they can go too far with their use of force. The followers take care of the chores around camp, but they can be very needy with their requests. The elders help you lead the group, but they can be overzealous with the power they wield. The resources are the food, water, tools and supplies your group needs to survive and they are in high demand but short in supply. FIGHT TO SURVIVE Zombie hordes and hostile human groups will be a constant threat to your survival. Will you aggressively attack your enemies or cautiously defend your walled compound? You’ll also encounter strangers who can help or hurt you in your quest to survive, but you must determine who is friend and who is foe! FEATURES • Survive as long as you can! • Balance between soldiers, followers, elders, and resources. • Fight zombie hordes. • Battle hostile human groups. • Meet strangers who can help or hurt you. • Choose your characters destiny as you upgrade their abilities. • 1000+ unique cards. • Dozens of unique ways to die.
I really enjoyed playing this game! The mechanics were fun and the level progression is good. Hopefully you are capturing analytics to see how players are progressing so you can continue to polish it.
I like the "dots" style look you are going for, but I don't think it is there yet. You should go back and study their graphics, animation, and audio to see how polished it is. I think with the mechanics and level design that you have if you put another pass into visual/audio polish you could really take the game to the next level.
One other thought, you had many opportunities for me to watch an ad to get coins, but I had no idea what the coins were for or what their worth was so it really wasn't enticing for me to keep watching ads. If you can figure out a way to make the ads more valuable for me as a player I would be more willing to watch them.
Good luck!
