Zombies are infesting Hamartia! Can you discover why?

Hamartia, the great citadel, had become a symbol of human sin: Pride, envy, anger, sloth, greed, gluttony and lust. After centuries of excesses its penance was to come. In the dark of night, chaos invaded everything. Beasts just stood there, screaming. Nothing was as before! No one sane would go to that place! And the fools who dared… never returned! Nobody can explain what is happening there, but whatever is causing it… should remain there!!

As the heroine of this story, you’ve set out to recover the eight Golden Stars and bring back the ancient wisdom. Be careful as you explore the citadel, because if you get lost, no one will come to rescue you!!

Zombie Incident

Overview & History

Originally released in 2017 by Mojon Twins and later adapted for classic retro hardware, Zombie Incident brings frantic, arcade-style survival horror to the vintage ColecoVision console. Blending the aesthetic of 1980s 8-bit European home microcomputer software with the processing quirks of the ColecoVison VDP, this homebrew title drops players into a grim, post-apocalyptic outbreak. You control Potes, a desperate survivor stranded in a sprawling, maze-like infested laboratory and outdoor facility. Tasked with navigating treacherous, single-screen flip-environments, your ultimate objective is to locate scattered vital components, rescue trapped survivors, and escape the undead horde before your stamina completely runs out.

Gameplay Features & Mechanics

Zombie Incident operates on strict, punishing screen-by-screen navigation where timing and precise positioning are everything. Unlike modern endless runners, every step in this game must be calculated. The undead shambler enemies spawn continuously, advancing with relentless, unpredictable AI patterns that quickly trap careless players. To survive, Potes can utilize a limited arsenal of ranged weaponry, such as a pistol or thrown objects, alongside a crucial jumping mechanic to clear obstacles and vault over lunging ghouls. Resource management is tense; ammunition and health pick-ups are scarce, forcing you to choose between fighting your way through a crowded hallway or dodging past hazards. The environmental design features deadly traps, locked doors requiring keycards, and vertical platforms that demand flawless platforming execution under extreme pressure.
