Tekker, A quiet worker, Tekker doesn't talk much about his past. With sharp eyesight and deft movements with his knife, he proves his worth getting around in a scene of bloodshed., he'd be able to get you out of very tough situations....if he's in the mood to do so.

Amy Crystal is a 17 year old high schooler and Johnny's Girlfriend. She is a fun Cheery person and never uses the term bigger than freak. She's pretty much defenceless and runs away at sticky situations.

Marty Shanks is a 24 year old subway employee with a keen sense of intuition and a talent for problem-solving. While Marty is a friendly and cheerful person, he can also be very cowardly and will complain constantly when nervous or angry. Although he means no harm, Marty's personality tends to frustrate and annoy those around him. He is a highly intelligent person who enjoys nothing more than sitting down to a difficult crossword puzzle or other thought-provoking challenges to pass the time.

So there's going to be more than one apocalypse? If an apocalypse involves some form of total annihilation, then why would a second apocalypse be necessary? I'd recommend coming up with the title and premise by yourself. If you can't offer that to your project, what can you offer?

No, it's the tagline for Half-Life. Black mesa has he tagline Run. Think. Shoot. Live. Source. (Correct me if I'm wrong). About the name, I guess the guy saw it somewhere and snagged it, not remembering what it originally meant.

Ok, after a long day of briefing what the title should be, Me and Scotty are Renaming it to "The Things" or "Them".

P.S. Zombie Concepts comming soon.

hahahahahaha

hey don't ruin what's clearly an inspired, original and totally non-(in any way shape or form)-plagiarised concept with such petty semantics! If he wants a second apocalypse what right does logic have to tell him otherwise?? Maybe they're on buy one get one free!

priceless

Well, To be honest Minuit, Im just trying on a few poses of the characters. I don't actually Johnny to look like that. sure he would have a hoodie with the DOC 110 on it, but just in a different style. Since some people have a problem with the Claire sketch, i guess i'll change that too. But come on. Jim's my fav character..... 

OK, now back to topic

I Search and search and search and i never found a game nor movie with the title "Dark/Cold Horror" so we're we're renameing the game's name to that. (Please Dear god, tell me there isn't a title like that taken.)

Ok, new concepts

ALLIES

Yes Allies. Not enemies. Not a "Goverment Conspiracy to kill and contain everything in the city cause you've seen zombies and you want to make it public BS." Nope. these guys and girls (thats right, theres female soldiers in the USMC) are here to help you evacuate.

User Posted Image
Your average grunt. I didn't want to draw the digital camo cause that would take to freaking long.

User Posted Image
Another grunt. With sunglasses....

User Posted Image
A female grunt's head sketch...whoohoo (come on. of all the horror and survival games, that involed soldiers, there was always missing something. Female soldiers. Think about it. When is the last time you ever seen female soldiers ingame that is NOT Halo, AzureSheep, And Point of View?)

User Posted Image
another sketch of a female marine.

ENEMIES

Ok, what good is your zombie game if there are no friggin zombies? i know that question is impossible to answer.

User Posted Image
Your regular zombie

User Posted Image
A zombie with a headphones half on.

User Posted Image
zombie Gangster :D

User Posted Image
A female zombie.....hmmmm.....

User Posted Image
hmmmm...a zombie nurse. but wheres the doctor? (comming soon)

User Posted Image
zombie dog....the horror.....

User Posted Image
A zombie cat? since when are there zombie cats? hmmm....whens the last time i ever faced a cat?...

User Posted Image
a child size Earwig? you're going to far luck3y! (we'll hey, i need something to replace a headcrab. surely a decapitated head won't do as it is one of the only few ways to kill a zombie.)

User Posted Image
A giant mutant cockroach to replace a baby headcrab? you're making it extreamly hard for us to beat the game, arn't you?

UPDATE!!!!!

Ok. I've been thinking and i think it's time to add some more ideas

New Johnny Concept. still havn't decided if this is the final one.

Amy Krystal's New concept. most likely the last one ill do.
User Posted Image

Ted is a new character im adding to the mod. He's alway seems to be hanging around Tekker. Though he is seen with Tek alot, He seems to be a calm guy. Not much is known about him other that he's a gun expert and seems to be going through a stage of depression.

Ted's Concept

New Allies
What good is you old fashion zombies if there are no cops? These guys and  gals are here to help you evacuate safely.
