Watch your health points bar and stay alive!
You steer a survivor whose gun auto-locks and fires whenever a zombie enters range, but the magazine empties fast—grab 🔫 ammo crates to reload, ❤️ med-kits to patch up, and 💣 grenades to thin the mob.  Every kill flips the sprite into a one-frame spirit: 90 % become 😇 angels that thank you, 10 % spawn 😈 devils that spit taunts like “I want to eat your brains! ” before both icon and line fade.  Rack up 30 kills to trigger a wave break where you can double bullet damage, add a −15 % damage shield, or inject a full-heal serum; ignore three supply crates in a row and zombie speed and spawn rates climb by 25 % each miss, quickly tipping the balance against you.

*(Quick-start & survival guide — “tough-love” edition)*

## Controls

| Action | How |

|--------|-----|

| **Move** | **Drag** with mouse (desktop) or finger (mobile) |

| **Shoot** | Automatic — survivor always fires at the nearest zombie |

---

## Pick-ups  

*(drops are deliberately **scarce**—watch for them!)*

| Icon | Effect |

|------|--------|

| 🔫 | **Ammo +15**<br><sub>Emergency crate has an 18 % chance to spawn when you drop to ≤ 5 rounds.</sub> |

| ❤️ | **Med-kit +25 HP** |

| 💣 | **Grenade** — wipes out **≈ 55 %** of the visible horde |

---

## Waves & Upgrades

* Every **30 kills** ⇒ next wave  

  *(twice the old threshold — stay aggressive!)*  

* After a wave, choose **one**:

| Upgrade | Benefit |

|---------|---------|

| 🔪 **Combat Knife** | Bullets deal **×2** damage *(stacks)* |

| 🛡 **Makeshift Shield** | Take **15 % less** damage; **max 3** stacks |

| 💉 **Anti-Zombie Serum** | Instant full heal |

---

## Souls

* 90 % odds: 😇 **Angel** plus a grateful line  

* 10 % odds: 😈 **Devil** screaming “NOOO!”  

* Icon & text pop up where the zombie died, then fade.

---

## **Greed** — missed-crate penalty

If you let supply crates** fall off-screen:

| Missed crates in a row | Horde bonus |

|------------------------|-------------|

| 1 | +25 % speed & spawn rate |

| 2 | +50 % |

| 3+ | +75 % (and climbing …) |

Grab **any** crate to reset greed — ignore three, and the horde snowballs.

---

### Balance tips  

* Supplies spawn ~20 % **less** often than before; shields are harder to stack.  

* Keep ammo above 5; the emergency drop isn’t guaranteed.  

* Use grenades wisely: 55 % isn’t a full clear.  

* If the horde suddenly feels faster, you probably missed a crate — fetch the next one ASAP!

---

## Goal

Outlive the dead and break your **High Score**.  

Every decision counts now — miss a few pickups and the balance tilts toward the zombies!
