📚 DeadBodyLand — Manual

Waves · Bombs · Orb barrage · Lights & shadows

🎯 Objective

💀 You’re the last cute thing standing in DeadBodyLand. Clear a fixed number of monsters per wave (watch the progress bar), survive the next tide, chain COMBO hits, level up from XP, and beat your personal best (saved in this browser).

🕹️ Controls

• ⌨️ W A S D — move in eight directions
• 🖱️ Mouse move — aim from your character toward the cursor
• 🖱️ Hold left click — rapid-fire light-orbs (rate improves a bit as you level)
• 💣 Shoot the red bomb on the grass — big blast that wipes nearby monsters
• 📱 Touch — bottom-left drag = move; bottom-right drag = aim + auto-fire while pressed
• 🔊 M — toggle sound effects only (shots & hits); music is separate

🏠 Title screen

• 🎵 Music — pick a track, Random each run, or turn background music off
• 🔉 Volume slider — controls MP3 music loudness (choices are saved)

💡 Tips & Tricks

• ✅ The wave bar (top right) shows cleared / total for this wave — no surprise endless spawns mid-wave
• ✅ After a bomb goes off, a new one appears a few seconds later (or instantly when the next wave starts)
• ✅ Keep moving — contact with bodies costs a whole heart
• ✅ Blue shooters kite at range; break line-of-sight or rush them
• ✅ Build COMBO for score; it resets if you get hit or wait too long
• ✅ The XP bar fills on kills — higher level means slightly bigger, punchier orbs
• ✅ Watch shadows and squash — it’s easier to “read” speed and hits
