Welcome back camp counsellors!
Welcome campers and counsellors!Firstly I am sorry for the delay in communication here and updates, I hope this helps bring some reassurances. Things have changed a lot behind the scenes and with the game itself but things are going well with development.What's new:Single player focus to begin with as story and single player modes take priority3rd person focus on story modeHorde mode is still in the works and is still planned for optional multiplayerThe asym mode will be later in development after single player. I know some of you were here for the multiplayer aspect and even though it is still planned, I want to be upfront about the situation. We did not hit our funding goal so It is down to just one developer for the time being. Multiplayer is still planned but I must focus on single player experiences that are achievable and then shift to multiplayer. I did ask the community on X and 90%+ wanted single player modes first. A Patreon has been set up to help keep the lights on as I work on this and so much progress has been made. We are already on test build 0.2 and we have a demo planned for Halloween on Steam. Feel free to check out https://www.patreon.com/c/ProjectAftermathZ if you want to be close to development and test the game early. Also there is a NSFW mode in progress by popular community demand and support. We have a new VA working on the project to help bring our new characters to life including Annie who will be the playable character for the demo and some of the story. Also to celebrate the anniversary of the games announcement here is a analog horror short of Red Pine Lake all shot in engine! Thank you for your support and patience!
