This game is simple, has a great style, and will force you to play it at least once. The controls are not too difficult, and the graphics are stylish, with the gameplay being simple, yet complex. This game is worth at least one playthrough, though (if I am correct), the levels are random, and the game is both easy and difficult, in a wonderful paradox of difficulty.

Very cool game.

It doesn't get any better for less than 2mb. You can download the game quickly, unzip, and enjoy.

Size aside, Last Dawn does has some really cool features. The graphics are catchy and inspired - you'll be able to watch the shadows in order to know when to retreat to your base. There's a stylish 3d feel with the parallel scrolling backgrounds. The game transitions from day to night in real time. Overall, graphics are incredible.

The gameplay isn't as strong as the graphics, but its still pretty good. The controls are well thought out, and the aiming is just dandy. Your AI buddies will be able to shoot better than you, so they are good to have around. There also multiple weapons, but they aren't too different except for rate of fire.

Overall, Last Dawn is a great download. Sure, it doesn't feel like its totally completed, but it is still good.

Meh, that's what I have to say about this game. I was actually hoping for a lot more. I can say this though: I love the art direction and the atmospheric music. Other than those things though the game doesn't really offer much in the way of gameplay. Basically you gather supplies from around your base and then return to base to guard it. It would normally be pretty fun blasting zombies but unfortunately the controls for aiming are a little too quick and makes aiming a sloppy affair. The gaemplay just gets a little old after awhile (first 10 minutes for me) due to the fact that you are pretty much doing the same thing over and over again. I do have to give this game props on the music and art direction but sadly the game does not match the music and graphic's level. I wish it had, if only the controls were a little bit better this game would definitely get more than just 3 stars.
