A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Zombeats is a high-octane rhythm game set in the apocalypse. Shoot zombies to the beat as they swarm from all directions, while managing limited ammo reserves. Unlock original songs as you progress through each character’s story, import your own levels with the custom level editor, chase high scores on the global leaderboard, and customize your experience with difficulty modifiers!
