Graveyard Shift
GRAVEYARD SHIFT is a fast-paced 2D top-down zombie survival shooter that runs entirely in your browser — no download, no app store, no install. Just click and play.
The fence won't hold. Hold the yard instead.

WHAT'S IN THE GAME
• Two modes — Survival (permadeath, three difficulties) and Endless (auto-respawn, no game over)
• Six weapons across two ranges — long-range precision (M9 Sidearm, Viper SMG, Rail-7 Rifle) and short-range shredders (Riot Gun, Incinerator, Ripper Saw)
• AoE bombs — throw, detonate, clear a crowd. Zero self-damage.
• Five zombie mutations — walkers, runners, brutes, spitters, exploders
• Chain kills for score multipliers (up to x5)
• Expanded arena with camera tracking and off-screen threat indicators
• Persistent high scores per mode and difficulty

MOBILE — INSTALLS LIKE AN APP
This is a PWA. On Android (Chrome) or iOS (Safari), open the game, then "Add to Home Screen" — it launches full-screen in landscape with no browser bars. Works offline after the first load.
Controls on mobile: left stick moves, right stick aims and fires, buttons for dash / bomb / weapon swap.
Controls on desktop: WASD + mouse to aim and fire. G for bomb, Q or 1–6 to swap weapons, Space to dash.

Built solo on weekends as a side project. If you play, I'd genuinely appreciate feedback on difficulty balance and mobile controls.
No ads, no accounts, no tracking. Free to play, tips welcome.
