Ok, so minor update, We have most of stuff implemented and now work on the first test version for close fans on our Discord. I am a bit nervous, also got day job problems in rl but in the end, I hope it will be worth it
Indeed that is good news, i mean the fact that most stuff is done and the beta is coming Best of luck in rl

Thank you!
Order of content on current build version - intro story (done) - starting quiz (done) - the 3 tutorial maps ( pending ) - intro cutscene with vehicle conversation ( pending ) - tutorial map area (work in progress 60% done, can be explored but may be bugs /missing content)
Aditional: - mechanics ( all done but some of them need adjustments and bug fixes) - content ( 90% is done but only 5%-10% is implemented) - Ballance (pending)
Id say we are now on a thin line between late alpha and early Beta

Some minor tests for speech bubbles I used cheat mode to spam zombies and kill the entire team, so evil of me Never forget to establish a defensive perimeter and always barricade your windows kids What should be order of priority? loot, barricade, explore, take defensive positions?

Some suggestions for the bubbles: cannot tell for sure if it's not already done, I would time the bubbles based on length of text, and fade them a bit earlier, so they don't overlap that often in full white.
The game looks like it made quite some big steps from the beginning, congrats on the job done!

Maybe if a bubble contained important stuff there would be an option to slow pace of the game or even freeze the whole action to give the protagonist time for planning the next tactical move...

@cavalierro
Yes, sir, the timing for speech bubbles is custom according to the text length
@Sp1ke
Unfortunately by pausing the game for speech bubbles will cause frustration in gameplay and will also diminish the horror elements
Thank you for the CC guys!

I like the look of these screenshots. The zombie movement animation and the gore are nicely framed.

Hehehe Thank you, sir! We only have 1 character that can handle a minigun, use it well

WoW, coming from such a skilled top-down animator as yourself this is really a big compliment for us. Thank you ContrailSurfer!

Keep up the good work. It looks really interesting. You have some great sources of inspiration for this one, like Lovecraft and old sci-fi action flicks, all my faves are there, love that! Really looking forward to trying this.
Thank you so much for the motivating kind words! Do you have some suggestions from movies I missed regarding map environments or situations? Definitely keep checking Cthulhu Mythos. Lovecraft and the other authors who later expanded it have created some amazing worlds there, full of potential to draw some inspiration from here and there. Often the short stories have the best bits. Also Mad Max series!

For example ALiens movie - reactor room map suggestions. Mad Max seems a good type to but what exactly do you recommend to take from it? A Character development inspired from the main character or a desert map?

Added to wishlist. Game is a bomb! It looks bloody good. I'm not sure about the picture you posted. If it is "front" picture it looks nice but I get impression that main characters could be bigger and some gore would make it better.
