About Dead Rush
Dead Rush is a twin-stick survival shooter where you control both movement and aim. You start with an endless pistol and pick up shotguns, SMGs and a flamethrower as you go, each with its own limited ammo. Swap weapons at any moment to match the threat in front of you.
The undead come in many types. Shamblers swarm, sprinters rush you, bloaters burst in a toxic blast, spitters hang back and lob acid, and brutes wind up a heavy charge. Every fifth wave brings a boss. Between waves you spend scrap on damage, fire rate, armor, speed and ammo upgrades, and the battlefield moves from city streets to a dark forest and finally a sealed lab.
How to Play
- Move with WASD and aim with the mouse. Hold the button to fire.
- Grab weapon crates for shotguns, SMGs and the flamethrower, then switch with 1–4 or Q.
- Collect scrap and medkits that zombies drop.
- Spend scrap in the shop after each wave, and survive all 15 waves to escape.

Game Objective
Survive all 15 waves. Kills score more in later waves, every cleared wave adds a bonus, and leftover health counts at the end.
Tips & Strategy
- Shoot bloaters from a distance and let their blast hurt the zombies around them.
- Keep the shotgun for brutes and bosses, and use the pistol on lone shamblers to save ammo.
- Use cars, trees and lab tables to break line of sight with spitters.
- Hollow Points and Quick Hands boost every weapon, including your free pistol.
