Holy shit, guys, remember that old post about this idea? Well it’s a thing now! Go check out the kickstarter and help fund this awesome game.

THANK THE GODS!!!!!!!!

Seriously? I mean stream is already super saturated in sub-par comedy zombie games. Besides being an Idea from tumblr how will it stand out from the crowd?

I’m glad you asked, @nuclearwargames (Although I am a little disappointed that your name does not contain the words dildo or butt, it would have been funnier).

One, I’m with you on the excess of crappy zombie games. We don’t need more. And this idea from Tumblr deserves to stand out. So we’re avoiding cliche mechanics like magical death chainsaws, waves of easily slaughtered zombies, and buckets of gore to hide crummy art. In Aberford, you have no real combat training and you’re fighting enemies that are bigger and stronger. You’ll have to earn each kill with cunning and agility.

Two, part of standing out is the story. We’ve written a very involved, deeply human, socially relevant story for this game, and everything is getting built around that, rather than slapping a half-baked story into a cool concept. We’re exploring the tragedies and injustices in the lives of these 50′s housewives, and zombies are merely the catalyst. We want you to have a lot of fun, but we also want you to leave this game feeling haunted.

Three, rather than trying to make an indie game that’s clearly an indie game, we’re trying to make one that has the look and polish of a big studio release, which is why we’ll be running are very aggressive Kickstarter. With proper upfront funding, we can give the game the refined, stylish look it deserves and get it finished before the tools we’re using start to look dated.

Hopefully, that makes you feel better, and as we reveal more game content, you’ll see what an amazing project we expect this to be

I’m gonna kickstart the absolute fucking hell out of this game holy shit
