HANDS ON DEAD

YOUR HANDS. THEIR END. — SELECT OPERATION

You don't play this game, you fight in it. No keyboard. No mouse. Just your hands — your real hands — controlling every shot, every punch, every step. Take damage and your vision fades. Get bitten and the world shakes. The sun sets when yours does in the real world!

How To Play

This is an immersive hand-controlled first-person shooter. You use your real hands to control the game - just like in real life combat. Your webcam tracks your hand movements to aim, shoot, punch, and move.

  • Point with your index finger to aim the crosshair
  • Bend your thumb tip on your middle finger's middle joint to shoot
  • Make a fist and punch forward to melee attack nearby zombies
  • In Campaign Mode: Tilt your hand to turn, move forward/backward and make a fist to stop

System Requirements

Browser Recommendation: For the best hand-tracking performance and smoothest gameplay experience, we recommend using Firefox. Firefox's WebGL implementation offers superior frame rates and lower latency for computer vision tasks compared to Chrome, resulting in more responsive hand gesture recognition.

Camera & Lighting: A webcam is required. Ensure you have good lighting in your play area - the camera needs to clearly see your hands for accurate tracking. Avoid backlighting (light source behind you) as it silhouettes your hands and reduces recognition accuracy.

Game Modes

Survival Mode

Endless waves of zombies attack your position. You can shoot with thumb bending and punch with fist gestures when zombies get close. Hold out as long as you can and rack up the highest score. No extraction, no backup - just you against the horde.

Campaign Mode

Fight through a linear outbreak narrative. You can move using hand gestures (tilt to turn, extended index to walk forward), shoot by bending your thumb, and navigate the area. Manage ammo carefully and survive scripted encounters.

Immersion & Environment

The game features realistic survival mechanics to heighten the tension:

  • Low Health Effect: When your health drops below 50%, your vision becomes blurry - just like real trauma affecting your focus
  • Damage Feedback: When zombies hit you, the screen shakes violently to simulate the impact of a real zombie attack
  • Day/Night Cycle: The game automatically switches between day and night modes based on your local time (6 AM - 6 PM = day, 6 PM - 6 AM = night). You can manually toggle this anytime during gameplay

Combat Tips

  • Headshots deal critical damage - aim for the head for maximum score
  • Punching uses no ammo and hit zombies when close enough
  • Watch your ammo count - the ammo circle pulses red when low
  • Keep moving in Campaign mode to avoid getting surrounded

Audio Controls

Use the Settings button on the main menu to adjust music and sound effect volumes. Your preferences are saved automatically.

Scoring
