Horror Scape: The Adventures Of Marty Overview
Horror Scape: The Adventures Of Marty was one of those Flash games you'd find on a portal in the late 2000s. It fit right in with the era's simple, direct side-scrollers, where you knew what you were getting into within the first few seconds. The setup was straightforward: you controlled Marty, a character with notably short legs, and your job was to clear a path through a zombie infestation.
You guide Marty from left to right, using the arrow keys to move and jump over gaps or onto platforms. The spacebar lets you attack the zombies that shuffle toward you. The main objective is simply to survive each stage, eliminating every undead creature in your way to progress. The game moves at a steady clip, and the challenge comes from timing your jumps and attacks correctly, as getting swarmed ends things quickly. It feels like a brisk, no-frills test of your basic platforming reflexes.
