Dead Pixels

Dead Pixels is a pseudo-retro looking side scrolling action-survival game where you, the protagonist, have to battle through city streets to reach other survivors that are preparing to evacuate a zombie-overrun city.

When a zombie dies, it barfs up a coin. This reminded me of River City Ransom. That illusion went away very quickly as I found myself running out of ammo and had to run away screaming from zombies until I found a store with ammo to sell me.

The stock in stores is limited, and I don't think it ever refreshes, so you're stuck with literally what you scavenge up.

It was pretty good times, I enjoyed myself a lot. I think this is one of those games that's really meant to be played with a friend while you're both making bad jokes. I didn't really have that available, but I had a good time for the couple of games I played through. I got it as part of a bundle, so my net cost for the game is like $1, and getting an hour of zombie splattering fun for a buck? Not bad. If you've got someone to play it with, I think there's some great replay value in there.
