About Graveyard Shift

Graveyard Shift throws you into a frantic defense against the undead as a lone night guard facing endless waves of monsters. You view the graveyard from a first-person perspective, acting as an arcade-style rail shooter where the screen automatically scrolls forward while you take down zombies, flying insects, and toxic plants.

The pace is fast and relies heavily on your aim and resource management. Instead of just shooting, you have to balance offense with defense by moving a temporary shield to block incoming projectiles. Survival depends on spotting threats early, prioritizing targets, and ensuring you do not let your guard down when the screen gets crowded.

Controls

  • Mouse: Aim crosshair
  • Left Click: Shoot
  • Spacebar: Hold to activate shield, move mouse to block

Tips

  • Your shield weakens as it absorbs damage, so watch out for shield recharge pickups and grab them before they disappear off-screen.
  • Prioritize ranged attackers like the flying bugs or spitting plants first, as their projectiles will chip away at your shield quickly if left unchecked.
  • When civilians walk into the graveyard, try to clear a path for them instead of shooting wildly, as protecting them yields extra rewards.

It is a sharp, quick-reflex shooter that runs right in your browser with nothing to install, perfect for short sessions of high-score chasing.
