Writing Updates (Patreon)

Hey everyone! I’m still deep in the trenches of Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven – Part 4, and wanted to give you a peek behind the scenes of what I’ve been working on lately.

Safe Haven: Part 4 Progress

Right now, I’m writing a major scene that connects several chapters. It’s one of the most complex sections of the game so far and really highlights how detailed your choices can get.

This month, I’ve been focused on Rachel’s report, which dives into how your group is doing and the current state of the junkyard. There’s a ton of new stuff you can build, and just this section alone has hit over 10,000 words so far.

Once that’s wrapped, I’ll move on to Chapter 17 and finish the following storylines:

• Hacker

• Soldier

• Teenager

Cliffhanger? Not This Time

Don’t worry, Part 4 won’t end on a cliffhanger. You’ll get clear info on a major event that kicks off Part 5. It’s more of a buildup than a “cut-to-black” moment. You’ll have time to think through how your group wants to handle what’s coming next.

Part 4.2 – Free Update!

After I submit Part 4 to my editor, I’ll be releasing a free update packed with features that many of you have requested. Think of it as Part 4.2, a way to enhance the early game with more depth and variety. Here’s some of what’s planned:

• Age tracking for your character

• Random encounters

• Reuniting with characters from the prologue

• Plus a bunch of other wishlist content

I’m able to offer free updates because of the awesome support from people who’ve bought the game and especially from patrons. While I earn the most when paid parts drop, adding free content helps me tell the full story the way it deserves to be told.

Questions?

If any of you have questions about Part 4 or beyond, please let me know. I’m happy to answer them.
