Contagion is a cooperative survival horror FPS built on the latest Source Engine where players are forced to watch their ammo and aim carefully otherwise be overrun by the zombie hordes. Players will face traditional zombies as well as former teammates who have been turned themselves and now see not friend but fuel to keep the carnage going.

  • Play alone, with a friend, friends, or with a group either offline or online.
  • You begin your story as a survivor but how long until your taste buds hunger for flesh?
  • Randomly generated weapon, ammo, and item placement.
  • Unpredictable and intelligent zombie spawning system that adjusts to the players actions.
  • A pathing and objective system that has you returning to the same map repeatedly with a fresh feel to it.
  • Full Steamworks support.
  • More information coming soon.

During this past week we've had a few announcements that we are happy to share with you today! We've been quite busy working on getting Contagion up to par and while we've shared a few screenshots here and there we haven't talked about much else behind the scenes.


Contagion's Official Steam Shop & Group!

Many have been wondering when Contagion will be available on steam and while the game isn't on sale yet we are happy to announce you will be able to see Contagion coming to you this Fall!  With our Contagion Steam Shop setup we also have our Official Steam Group which you can follow for all the latest updates and news about Contagion! This also includes our official Steam community Hub linked to the group.


Contagion & Pax 10

Although we won't be officially attending PAX again this year as the lint in our pockets wasn't convincing enough, we have entered Contagion in the PAX 10 competition. Which is a competition for indies to win a chance to showcase their game at this years PAX Prime. So that means, should we win, we will receive a kiosk to demo the game. We have our fingers crossed!



Zombie Panic: Source & SteamPipe

Now in other Monochrome news, the Zombie Panic: Source Steam page will be getting a facelift soon as well as we transition to Steam's new content management system, "SteamPipe." This new system will allow us to roll out updates easier and include some performance benefits to players.

Benefits include:

  • Faster and smoother downloads
  • Faster game boot times and map load times
  • Smoother dedicated server distribution and update rollover

More info soon as we convert over to the new system.


Aurora Estates Screenshots!

If you've missed them we've posted a few new screenshots the past couple weeks from one of Contagion's maps "Aurora". There will be plenty more to come! Here's a small recap:

Will you ever reveal more player models or tell us if any are in the works? I know that making player models isn't exactly a short or easy process, but I'm just wondering cuz my girlfriend and I are planning on getting this but she doesn't wanna play as a guy (she was always Jessica in ZPS)

And I'm sure like, 9 other people are in a similar situation to mine as well :P

I'm not demanding anything, only asking. This looks absolutely incredible for an indie game, keep up the amazing work, guys.

Contagion is a commercial Indie Source based game and what we've shown so far is on the old 2007 Engine. We look forward to showing off our work on a more current engine soon. As for the songs we haven't created names for our music as each is created for a specific video. We will look into this in the future. Glad you like, as for media with David Meade taking on the position of PR Rep we hope to share more with the public since the rest of us are at our desks working when we're not at our jobs working and have be lax on updates but consistent work daily.

Hello, I just wanted to say that this is adding up well! This is the guy who asked for the character names, and thank you for that quick response.

I asked this question on the ZPS forums, but I think I should also ask it so that other people could look at it.

Will ZPS Have Source Filmmaker support? Likewise, Will Contagion have Source Filmmaker support?

Yeah but No More Room in Hell also focuses on survival, we'll just have to see how it compares.
