Z-Mart
Wildcard Winner of the Synty Spooky Game Jam 2024!
Welcome to Z-Mart, we are glad to have you as part of the team! Your duties include (but are not limited to) stocking shelves, operating the cash register, and fending off the endless hordes of the undead while we remain diligently open and willing to serve! We have provided you a shotgun and various other means of defence to help you in this endeavour.
This game was submitted as part of the 2024 Synty Spooky Game Jam. The theme of the jam was "It Never Ends..." which has been embraced in the fullest in my little game!
How to Play:
- Left Click to shoot shotgun.
- E to interact. Use this to stock the shelves, rebuild barricades, place traps, etc.
- Space to jump
- Left Shift to sprint.
- Stand at the cash register to manually scan out customers and earn money! If things get to hectic, hire an employee to man the other register!
Tips:
- You can hire up to 1 employee to help work the cash register, do this early but make sure you can afford their wages!
- If your store runs out of stock, customers will leave right away! Don't neglect your aisles!
- Health and Ammo can be purchased from the red and green machines behind the cash register and in the back room!
- Self checkouts are expensive to fix but don't have a wage to pay! Be careful though, they might break again randomly!
- Your shotgun deals more damage up close!
- Bear traps only need to be purchased once! After they go off, you can reset them for free!

adictive game, love it; don't know if this was the intention but there is a point where if a zombi enters and star infecting clients it goes to become a caos specially in rush hour. maybe more weapons or upgrades for the defenses?
Important!
A bug was found where sometimes the customers in line get stuck and do not proceed to the checkout. In the rare case this happens, if you pause and unpause that has been reported to fix their behaviour. I cannot upload the fix while the jam is underway!
