Zombie Showdown

Description:
A small game using an 16x2 LCD and a pushbutton.
The game presents a start screen and awaits player input.
If the player presses the button the game starts.
After a random number of milliseconds a Zombie will
appear. It will have a random strenght of 1-5.
The strenght of the Zombie is equal to how many
buttonpresses it takes to kill it.
If the player fails to kill the Zombie within a random
timeframe the Zombie will kill the player.
If the player manages to kill the Zombie the game will
continue and a new Zombie will soon attack.
When the player dies a Game Over screen is presented
also displaying the score of the player.
There is no "beating" this game since in the Zombie apocalypse
eventually everyone will die.
Planned expansion:
1. Use a vibrator to signal Zombie attack.
2. Use randomizer to make
Credits:
This game uses example code from
Debounce and the LiquidCrystal library.
