The Outbreak: Episode 3 v1.0 Release
Episode 3 is here! I think this episode is pretty ambitious and also a lot darker than the first two. The real desperation is starting to show as the reality of the collapse is becoming apparent to people, and it's going to get even worse for the survivors as they run into some very nasty characters and confront their own personal demons of the past.
Plot: A recovering heroin addict and a medical student fight to survive after a deadly virus is unleashed in the hospital of a major city.
Synopsis: Adam and Marcus try to find their way out of the subway tunnels. Ben and Amy start making their way out of the city.
Duration: The length of each episode is intended to be about 15 minutes, or about the same time it takes to read a single issue of a standard 22-page comic book.
Credits: The series was inspired primarily by 28 Days Later and The Walking Dead. I did everything except for the music (Kevin MacLeod) and the photography. The character portraits were sourced from the The Real People Project, and the backgrounds were sourced from Google Images (the credits go to their respective owners).
Schedule: At this point I'm aiming to release a new episode by the 15th of each month.
