Suppose you wanna make yet-another-Zombie game…
What would be considered good as Zombie alternative?
- Must be somewhat big and slow-moving.
- Cannot think so well and slow to do something
- Fun looking so players don’t get too afraid
Manatees.

Spiders…everyone loves spiders right?
How about cartoon skeleton knights in colorful armor? I’ve never found skeletons to be particularly scary, yet they have many similarities to zombies.
Or pandas from looking at the /\ icon above lol big slow easy to kill evolution hates them whats more for a zombie alternative.
In the future dead appliances (stoves, microwaves, ect) begin to come back to life. Kind of zombie like,but still.
Brain-dead office workers on a monday. Make it to friday to win.
Sleepy kittens. Too brutal?

You want a FUN LOOKING zombie alternative? You just mean not too gruesome or will overall point to horror right? Gorillas?
That will not end well lol.
How bout wolves, not nazi zombie flaming red eyed monsters, or once in a full moon types. But just giant packs of feral dogs set in a semi apocalyptic rabies epidemic.
Golems.
You see a picture of a cute baby panda and the first thing that pops into your mind is making it a zombie substitute. You should be ashamed. 
This.
Aliens
Souls of the Damned. (Think Evil Spirits)
Mythological Creatures (Minotaur, Medusa, etc.)
Space Knights?
In the movie Omega Man, the “zombies” or infected-people are pretty smart and just want you to understand the meaning of life as they do:
Triffids, from John Wyndhams’s “Day of the Triffids”
Deadly but slow, stupid and flammable 
Kardashians.
oh wait… didnt see this… Fun looking so players don’t get too afraid
I am thinking teddy bear
Lizard with a rainbow top hat? Tortoise with a green Afro?
A “narcissistic genius psychopath” titled game, so from his perspective everything is dumbed down and slow, that he can shoot?
Parents
in this game you face your last stand vs the horde of teenagers with mobile phones, facebook, twitter and more as they relentlessly hound you with entitled requests and stroppy behaviour.
