They Are Coming [OnHit Developments] (v1.19)

A ruined orphanage becomes the last line between a small community and an endlessly advancing undead horde. They Are Coming [OnHit Developments] blends side-scrolling zombie shooting with the tense resource decisions of roguelikes and the preparation of a compact tower-defense game. Its tone is deliberately scrappy and brutal: each day brings more corpses, more pressure, and another chance for a carefully built barricade to collapse under sheer numbers. The story stays simple, keeping the focus on protecting younger survivors and holding familiar ground against a post-apocalyptic nightmare.

Defense mode revolves around surviving escalating waves while spending limited money on weapons, melee tools, traps, and defensive equipment from the orphanage administrator. Players arrange obstacles, reinforce a firing position, and then personally join the fight, using firearms for crowd control or close-quarters weapons when the dead breach the line. Ragdoll-heavy impacts and bloody kills give the combat a satisfyingly physical feel, especially when a well-placed shot sends enemies tumbling into a pile of bodies. Death carries real weight because a failed run wipes earned progress, making every purchase and defensive choice matter rather than encouraging careless experimentation.

Playground mode provides the counterpoint to that harsh loop, letting players use unlocked gear without the threat of losing a run. It works as both a testing ground for trap layouts and a sandbox for building absurd kill zones simply to see how long the zombies last. The combination of simple controls, customizable defenses, and unpredictable physics gives it an immediate pick-up-and-play appeal despite its punishing roguelike stakes. Fans of 2D survival games such as The Last Stand or the defensive planning found in They Are Billions should find plenty to enjoy, while newcomers who dislike permanent loss may prefer starting in the forgiving Playground mode.
