      Ch1: It was decent, relatively easy and its length was fine. 1 Panic Event.
      ---------------------------------------------
      Ch2: It was harder and longer with 2 Panic Events. 2nd Panic event was longer than expected and it started without any preparations. Yet, I handled it.
      ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Your campaign was surprisingly good and I didn't expect to be that long, but like you clarified on Homepage, it's only 2 chapters and it was like that since you put it here on gamemaps. Hope you come back to resume working on it.
      
      As the campaign is incomplete and it's not clearly mentioned how many maps it has, I give a 4/5 star rating. Good luck!

      Only 2 maps but the quality was unexpected!

      PROS
      - Clear pathways
      - Plenty of supplies (maybe a little too much tho)
      - Well placed events / hordes
      - Overall map layout was great
      - Great lighting / dialogue
      -
      
      CONS
      - No closets in map 2??
      - Bots walked into every witch I encountered and did not pick up med kits pills ect
      - Door/gate takes far too long to open
      - Should be a warning that players cannot camp in the generator room without losing health
      - No real 'finale' and at the end of map 2 there is no highlighted rescue vehicle
      
      Overall
       Despite the lengthy list of cons, they are not game breaking, however they do dampen this well made campaign, bringing it down to 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that, it is well made and I would recommend the download and playthrough!

      Perfect campaign. My recommendation is to add a finale though. Other than that I loved it. Great map design. Only 1 minor navmesh issue that occurs on chapter 1 when the bots try going into a house and walking into a wall to follow me. No glitches/bugs. Great work.

      Unexpected Gem

      jsparakov hit the nail on the head: "There's so much potential in this campaign." This truly has the potential to be a fantastic campaign. I regret putting off trying this one out because of its silly name that makes it seem like a joke. To my surprise it was much better than a lot of highly rated campaigns. Such a shame that continued work on this doesn't seem likely. 
      /
      Map layout is extremely good, events are spaced out perfectly, environments are used creatively, directionality is always very clear, lighting is extremely realistic and unique, layout has a lot of great variety. The screenshots here really don't show how good this campaign is, especially the unique lighting. Of course this map isn't without problems. There is the inconsistency of Coach saying you need to get gas when you never do, there's no finale rescue vehicle, the bots don't like to pick up ammo in one particular room, and, as everyone else noted, the damn door takes too long to open and the hordes don't stop. And it seems that spitters spawn way more often than they should. But that's a small price to pay for this gem. I really wish this author had expanded this campaign into five maps because it's really damn good. This isn't the best campaign ever, and yes it's a little rough around the edges, but it's way better than a campaign called Meatball deserves to be.

      Pros:

      ======= In general =======
      + Interesting level design.
      + Fancy graphics.
      + Lots of zombies.
      + Very good atmosphere.
      + Electric waves after pressing the button in map 2.
      + AI navigation is acceptable.
      + Not as bad as I though it'd be, honestly.
      + 2 maps, but actually quite long ones.

      Cons:

      ======= Map 2 =======
      - The door takes ages to open, bad because of millions of hordes.
      - The end is kind of weird.
      - Bots refuse to take medkits located in that one container.
      ===================
      
      ======= Miscellaneous =======
      - Why not more maps? :D
      - No storyline.
      =======================

      Conclusion:

      Congratulstions, this is better than expected! Add more maps, please! really surprised . . . .

      Pros:

      - I enjoyed the atmosphere of the 2nd map
      - straightforward map design

      Cons:

      - ran out of ammo a lot
      - glitch: unlimited pipe bomb + molotov pile

      Conclusion:

      Not much to say. Nothing spectacular, but not terrible either.

      Pros:

      We cant be lost,; its a good thing :)
      Introduction, relatively interesting.
      The "electric" thing, original.
      

      Cons:

      The last event is too much long
      Too many bomb (?)
      A lack of ammo
      A lack of choice of weapon, ok, you can choose at the shop, but there is nothing next !
      A little boring, not a lot of zombie.
      Not very original place, a city...again, not very special.
      

      Conclusion:

      Its not a bad campaign, but It can be better, and the last safe room is on an interseting place( maybe you can change the place with a potential third map) But its too much...boarf. Its not really THAT funny, i hoped it was more orginial than a city, but its not bad, continue, I hope there will be another map(s).

      6.5

      Pros:

      1) different look from most
      2) some good lighting
      3) good start - could be good with more work 

      Cons:

      1) not enough detail yet
      2) feels empty
      3) the end?
      4) many 90 deg turns

      Conclusion:

      This is a good start - I am rating it as a beta.  I will play it again with another version.

      Pros:

      Great atmosphere.

      Cons:

      Too less melee weapons and ammo piles.
      
      The Container in second level doesn't offer a obvious hint for players, we fought against hordes for a long time, and it stayed still until someone to "push" the container away, the path was just clear.

      Conclusion:

      You may make a "simple" safe room for ending or tell players "it's done!" on the wall. Seeing a empty room doesn't mean it's ending. So far so good.

End of results.
