User guide
The objectives of the game is to kill zombies, stay alive (don't die) and, simply, have fun.
Enemy types:
- ZOMBIE - Slow, but if you get cornered with low firepower can be a big problem.
- DEVIL - Not much faster, but have a powerful fireball attack that can quickly end your life. Takes some Heavy FirePower to kill them.
As you gain Kills, A number in the Top right of the screen will Rise. This is your Combo Counter, and it will go down unless you keep killing more zombies faster.
As the Combo counter reaches higher Numbers, you will Unlock weapons, and upgrades for those weapons. There are over 90 weapon upgrades, sure to keep you busy for hours.

Known issues
There might be a possibility where an enemy gets stuck on a wall.
One bug that is random is crashing when leaving the game to the menu. This has something to do with oslib's virtual filing system and mp3/at3 deleting (ran out of heap or RAM or something as it was able to be replicated in a basic sample program). The crash has been traced back to a virtual file system function call in oslib and it happens in the mp3s thread.
So when you die and your press Start to go back to the menu, if it does freeze know it's because of the MP3 currently playing. But your score is still saved so theres nothing bad about it, just an inconvenience. Also, because of this it will probably run better on a slim with it's RAM size being greater.
