You know you can just rename the files yourself, right?
Where in the post that I said I didn't know how to rename file? It was a simple request for future releases, if the developer doesn't want to change it, it is fine too. I downloaded and played a lot of games, so I don't really paid attention to the name of the files I downloaded. I don't want to maintain a list of games where I have to change to file name to something meaningful after download. This is not the only games that used 'acronym' for the file name, and I just deleted those files without knowing what they are.

Why did you change it? It seemed like it was gonna be interesting when I played the last version. Idk male protagonist might ruin it hopefully not.

Will the RE and L4D girls play a bigger role in the main game then just some secret renders?
I'll probably use Zoey as a tutorial/infodump on zombies. The RE girls will just be in side-stories which you can learn about with notes/secrets.

But I don't have plans on making them major characters again :(

The RE models I changed cause of copyright. Inspiration and references from the game are still there but it's no longer an exact copy.

The male protagonist was just for the prologue. It's a small demo I made to learn daz3d/renpy. Content is going to be similar to the old versions with some gameplay/model changes so if you liked the old one, you'll hopefully like the new one!

That's totally ok, I think. The story/events are the real draw here: they're what are unique about your game. If someone wants to look at a specific person/model, there are countless pieces of media featuring them to go look at instead.

That aside, do you have any plans to make infection more of a daunting obstacle this time around? What I mean is, in the last game, the women were addled for a very short time before recovering. It seems like it'd be scarier (hotter) if getting infected rendered that character useless, either for a while (opening them up to other attacks) or indefinitely. The latter doesn't necessarily have to be a game over: you could have to send a different character in with an antidote to save them, for example.

I'm not sure how much of a "game" rather than a VN you want to make this, so that might be outside of scope.

Great idea! I've thought about something similar but I'm still having trouble with the combat part. Like the series of events for when you actually see a zombie. Avoiding it, fighting it, or getting captured should be possible but I'm still unsure of the ideas I've had so far (QTEs, shooting mini-games and such). Once I have that figured out, the other survivors could give a few perks to combat/puzzles, and then I could work on an infection progression system.

But I haven't started making models for the next version yet, so combat is still miles away. My track record for working on this game isn't the best and I won't start working on 0.1 until winter break. Hopefully I figure out the game design issues by then.

Should make it clear on the first post in the Future it be a Female protagonist.

Zoey from L4D has a cameo?
I was expecting the RE girls, but are characters from other zombie franchises going to show up, too?
Like Juliet from Lollipop Chainsaw? Or Ellie from Last of Us? Or... um... I can't think of any others.

I usually use Zoey if I want a random background character for a scene but I'll look into characters from other games!

Setting up new models is a bit of a pain though, so I can't promise anything :HideThePain:

I played Prologue all the way to the end!
I'm looking forward to the next update, but I have a few concerns...
I was interested in the male protagonist who gave his name, but that doesn't mean he's leaving, does it...?

lol all i could think of other than those are rochelle, dying light's ezgi, jade and lawan, and the world war z and zombie army ladies which i doubt non-zombie game fans can even name
I guess there also the girls from Back 4 Blood, although I never played that game and can't name any of them.

same. i never tried them. i also doubt you can just export their models or something lol
I don't know. The game is made in Unreal Engine which to me would make it seem like it'd be easier to export them then with an original game engine. I don't know anything about that kind of stuff though.
There might also be some fanmade models of the B4B characters online, although I don't know how likely that is, seeing as the game wasn't very well liked from what I've seen.

Glad you liked it!

The actual MC is going to be female and permanent. You can check out the old abandoned version of the game as an example of what to expect.

so the prologue was released in 2021, has there been any updates or has this been abandoned?
To sum it up quickly, the original ONiBC game was started in 2021, but the game got cancelled/abandoned due to mostly a hard drive data loss issue as well as legal issues the developer faced (to the best of my knowledge). See "Old Abandoned" version download on the front page.

This new prologue was started/updated in late June of this year, so the game isn't abandoned. It's not quite the same at this point, so you can say it was "rebooted" or revisioned. Since this game was reposted on the original thread, that's why it has the May 21st, 2021 date but actually is for the new 2023 prologue / version. Pages 11ish and forward of this thread discusses the new version while older pages will talk about the previous abandoned version.

Hope that cleared things up for you.
