GDC/Pax East 2023 + Outbreak Streaming Schedule This Week!
over 1 year ago – Mon, Mar 13, 2023 at 07:21:07 AM

Hey Survivors!

Julia & Evan have been super busy prepping for GDC 2023 & Pax East 2023 over the last month! We're bringing along a playable vertical slice of Outbreak: Shades of Horror, so if you're attending either conference drop us a line so we can say Hi and you can get a quick play session in!

Work on Playable Survivors/NPCs has been a little slower than usual due to the conference prep, but we'll be back at full swing in April!

But! We have two great streams this week so keep reading!

Join us this week for TWO streams on our Twitch channel!

We'll have digital game giveaways for both of these streams!

Tuesday March 14th, 2023 @ 7PM ET - Resident Evil 4 Remake/Gamecube Demo Playthrough, Analysis & Deep Dive. Learn how this title influenced Outbreak: Shades of Horror and watch the mayhem!

Thursday March 16th, 2023 @ 7PM ET - Outbreak: Shades of Horror GDC/Pax vertical slice playthrough + analysis + Q&A. See a bigger chunk of the game in action than ever before, so make sure to attend live!

REMINDER - You can still pre-order  the game and purchase add-ons like becoming a playable character, NPC and much more at our BackerKit store! Get those orders in! All purchases count towards our stretch goals! https://outbreak.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

Thanks again for your support!

Developer Stream #2!
over 1 year ago – Tue, Feb 21, 2023 at 11:01:07 AM

Hey Survivors,

Are you ready for development stream #2?!

Sorry it took us awhile to announce this, but The next development stream will be on Feb 28th at 7PM EST on our Twitch channel

We took a look at the european time zones,  and really tried to find a better time for the stream. Unfortunately both professional and familial commitments prevent us, as of right now, from holding a stream before 7pm EST.  If anything changes, you will all be the first to know.

For development stream 2, we will be focusing on character creation within Unreal engine 5. Currently we are using Metahuman for the base models, and Julia will be talking about the creation process, customization and how we plan to go even further to develop more bespoke models.

Evan in Metahuman!

Hope to see you there!

Evan and Julia
