ZOMBETES is a zombie survival game where you play as a diabetic.
A unique text-based game where each run is different
To survive, you must manage your blood glucose levels while avoiding infection. Navigate through procedurally generated levels in search of insulin and nutrition. Find items to barricade yourself, rest, and move on.
Death is inevitable. The question is how long can you stay alive?
Test your reflexes with item skill checks
In your travels, you can encounter the remains of other ZOMBETES players whose lives have already expired. And when your time inevitably comes to an end, so too can other players find and loot your belongings.
Find traces of other players in your world
You will face highs and lows. If you're lucky, NPC survivors might be of some aid.
Or if you're not, they may become adversaries.
In the fight for your life against the walking dead, there's no time to stop and smell the roses. Your blood sugar is dropping: eat the sandwich, inject the insulin, and find your next dose.
