Hey everyone!

Here's the first official update for Zombie's Retreat 2 - Beta 0.1.0

IMPORTANT: Out of respect for all the $5+ Patrons and the team that works so hard on Zombie's Retreat 2, please refrain from sharing this build/link with others.

Note: Android version will be coming out likely with the Beta 0.2 release.

Well, I finally was able to get something out.  I'm much happier sharing this than I was with the original Alpha release but I was still surprised to find that in general, I still need more time to get the basic things done.

At this point, however, I find it important to share SOMETHING with players.  From here, you see where the base of the game is and I can comfortably work towards improving things.  I know this build won't meet everyone's expectations, it's just something I have to come to terms with.  Otherwise the first update wouldn't be out for many more months.

A lot of time was spent with the first day of this game to really set the mood, set some of the characters up, and create a (hopefully) strong first impression for players!  The decision to delay the build meant I was able to include cool things like the news broadcast (originally this was a black screen & text).  

IMPORTANT: This is one of the first, if only updates where the public release will come out 7 days later.  This is because in 3/4 days, I'm hoping to upload ANOTHER update (Beta 0.1.1) which will add in even more of those smaller details.  For example, the dialogue of the characters isn't done yet.  Small things like this that I frankly ran out of time to add and admittedly, I'm mentally gassed out atm.  So stay tuned for that as this is sort of a two-part release!

=====

That's about everything.  I hope you all enjoy what I have to share so far.  My apologies if this doesn't meet everyone's expectations but hopefully you can see where things will go moving forward.  

Thank you all so much for your patience and support!  I will see you all soon with more!

Downloaded. Time for some fun! Make sure you take a little time before working on that next beta - can't have you collapsing!

Short but sweet. I'm really looking forward to what sort of new interactions you have coming up for both the uhhh guests and the environment. It was fun finding things in not so obvious places and I hope to see those novel interactions continue, if not increase. Keep up the good work!

I'm glad you enjoyed the first look! I have another feature I want to add soon in regards to hidden places to help make exploring feel a bit more rewarding! Thank you!

(choice) do you have zombie rape plans? or Shows the scene where the heroine was also attacked and the bad end (killed) and the neck was bitten?

Min

Don't worry about the heroine's f**king Ashley(RE:4). You only need to set conditions that can be triggered by [Special Event].

I know that everything's at a really early stage, but I'm really excited by the opening. The care and effort that's been put in to the opening animatic(?) and animations of characters is clear. There's obviously a few places on the map where I'm clipping into a door etc., but the core is there! My minor critique is with 'Meredith's' bangs; I feel like they obscure the character's eyes a bit too much - I know it's probably a major pain in the ass to change, but it think that it hinders the character's ability to convey emotions, eyes being the window to the soul and all.

ZombiesRetreat

Thanks for the feedback! While I love her design, I actually had similar concerns about that with Meredith. It won't be a top priority but I could easily see myself asking Scarlett for an updated bust for her similar to what happened with Leslie in ZR1.

ExoReborn

I got to agree with what TheDoge says but not game breaking but do gotta say going again with the whole only male not turned into a zombie thing. I guess is fine ain't gina keep me from playing it but figured you might have changed it up. I look forward to what ya do with it and this is just a minor thing but are most of the woman ya come across all gona be white? Lol I know it sounds dumb sorry it just be nice to see more love for all ladies of the rainbow.

EVANDERtHeGOTH

Judging by the timing of your post you may have clicked on the link for Beta 0.1.0 which I had just deleted. Try again and it should take you to Beta 0.1.1!

The story of ZR2 is highly interwoven with ZR1 so there are going to be a lot of similarities. I will say this time around though, the story has just begun. Not all is as it seems ;)

Short but definitely a good intro to the new story. I already like the idea of having an entire district being closed off for use of other survivors, hopefully the next update doesn't drain you as much as this one did and you're able to take your time with the next update. best of luck for the future.

Hi! Siren, loved the first game, looking forward to this one. Downloaded the link but wasn't able to open it to play. Just gave me folders with all the creating details.
