I never said which week...

Chapter Two Progress Update

The layout for the Chapter Two map is virtually complete, but there's no actual game logic or events in yet. Get ready for a descent into darkness though as Lydia tries to escape the underground, while battling out-of-control gas mains spewing fire. The darkness is going to provide cover for the undead as well... and they can come from anywhere. In the coming weeks, I'll be working to add notes, interests and all of the other gameplay events that make an Outbreak scenario fun.

Combat Fixes

Chapter Two will also debut with some improvements to how enemies attack you. Right now, it's very difficult to juke an enemy and run past them without taking damage. There will be improvements that will allow enemies to only hit you when they're at a certain point in their animation swing. This has been one of the most requested features and it should greatly improve gameplay.

So when will it be out?

I'm still not ready to commit to a release date, but the goal is for Chapter Two to debut during summer. There's still a lot more that needs to go into it before it's ready. As always, it'll likely appear on Steam before Xbox One.

Thank you!
