mabey work in a way to save the little girl? please
Well, that will be tricky but Iāll see what I can do.
Donāt get me wrong Iām not saying I think that Devlin is a bad character. I just donāt like him because I donāt like jerks. In that way heās actually a pretty good character.
Random question. How did the woman in the sun dress get infected? Or die for that matter? Did you think up a story behind that? The detail you put into everything certain gave the impression that you did.
Itās a bit creepy ā I work in the medical field and read a report of a woman who was found dead in a lobby of a building after mostly everyone had left for the day. She was discovered dead the next morning. The coroner found that something must have scared her, she had a major panic attack, which lead to a massive seizure. The seizure paralyzed and killed her. So I thought about that case and said āwhat if that happened during the outbreak?ā
Wow, that is a bit creepy. Still, it really helps add to the atmosphere of the game.
Despite the need to remain gender neutral for most of the pages I really liked the bit where Tom offers a female character his hand. If the entire thingās only recognition of your sex choice is sexually specific words (he/she brother/sister) then it just ends up feeling like your characterās sex doesnāt matter at all. Little bits like that go a long way towards making it feel like even a choice like that matters, even if it doesnāt make any big difference.
I wasnāt really thinking that Emma should become Buffy or something. Iām just thinking that sheās a danger to herself and those who are going to risk themselves to keep her safe. If it werenāt for Heather sheād have been killed when you tell them to run while you stand and fight. Heather may not be the greatest fighter, (Mindy is the most badass NPC Iāve seen so far) but sheās not a liability. You can rely on her to not hamper your efforts to keep her safe. Emma on the other hand needed Heather to pull her to safety because she was just standing there staring at the zombies. I donāt think that that makes her a bad character. If she didnāt do that sheād be less of her own character. I just think itād be neat if there was a chance for your character to realize that sheās a liability and try to do something about it.
@JimD I think the love for Devlin is because he is the kind of jackass that actually gets what he wants. He doesnāt fight you or anything, he just pulls what he wants right out of you. The mistempered anger only shows up if you bring it out, or if he isnāt allowed on the ship Iād assume, but I havenāt read that path as Iām always just a bit sad that I canāt just put a bullet in him (not that Iām asking for it as an option 
). The thing with Devlin is that he is the kind of jerk that people actually like, even though they shouldnāt. How often have you thought āwhy does that person even have friendsā? Youāve created a jerk without being so heavy handed that everyone automatically hates him because they can see his betrayal coming from a mile away, even though they can still tell heās probably going to betray them. He is a truly human character and that is what makes him so awesome.
I actually wouldnāt mind playing the weak character. Being safe from zombies is one of my top priorities, and it would help to have more people that want me safe.
Well, Tom really doesnāt seem much like the heroic type to me. He sends you out on a zombie slaying mission while he stays in the safe house getting drunk. If you donāt save one of your team members while youāre fighting the zombies at the safe house, He kills you. (Although, it would be cool if you werenāt dead and they dropped you off in the woods to continue a solo zombie game.) I would have also liked if Tom showed his intoxication while we were fighting the zombies.
This isnāt really a bug, but I think the wording can be improved. : Part 2
Choice: Tell Devlin to stand and fight while you get Emma and Heather away
Action: āDevlin, we gotta fight while Heather and Emma get away!ā
The choice seems like Devlin is going to fight while you and the girls get away, while that is what eventually happens, your response seems like youāre going to try to fight along side him. I donāt really want you to change the scene because it shows the nicer side of Devlin.
@Shoelip I have plans for Emma ā she is the most affected by the apocalypse as any other character. She may never be Buffy but sheās no Dawn.
@Reaperoa I agree about Devlin and appreciate that you think he is a great character. I have him worked out real well in my head so it is easy to write his parts. I ask āwhat would Devlin say or do?ā and have no trouble answering.
@Sovereign2Lilith I see what you mean about the wording. Iāll look it over and see how best to tweak it.
As for Tom, what I hoped to convey is that he sees the safehouse as a company and he is the CEO. So, in effect he is calling the shots, not so much as a hero. There is also more behind it but Iād rather not give away too much about the future.
Well hopefully she can end up being a bit likeā¦ Season Seven Dawn. 
Hm, I never noticed those parts of Tomās personality. Definitely would have changed my opinion of him if I did. I never got the ending where he kills you.
In the park will u tell me who shot the zombie as itās about to kill me
Actually Iād love to know the answer to that as well.
Same here. That question has been on my mind since the second time I encountered it (I dropped the tree on it the first time )
Since it is a spoiler, Iāll message you all to let you know.
Thatās cool. Canāt wait for that part to happen
one of the best games i played so farā¦ taking of my hat to the creator
To those expecting an update tonight, Chapter 2 of Part 3 is nearly complete but Iād rather test it for a few days than put it up tonight and subject everyone to mistakes and errors.
Alright, thats cool. Canāt wait to see it!
awesome
Canāt wait!
You know itās generally taken as a given but I always wonder, why do zombies attempt to feast on the flesh of the living (and only the living)? It really makes very little sense.
