Most of the below won’t make sense unless you've played Alpha #5. What? You haven’t? WELL GET OVER TO THE DOWNLOADS AND DOWNLOAD IT THEN! (And tell us what you don’t like about it so we can make it better.)

Below is the new stuff we've been working on this month for the next Estranged release.

Maps

Oliver has revamped the start of The Outlet, and Chris has been working on a whole bunch of new materials and models for the revamped areas.

The starting area of The Outlet has had a complete makeover, featuring new scenery that ties in better with the rest of the environments.

 

Alan has been working on the first level, and the first character now has a beautiful vegetable patch, complete with a melon in a wheelbarrow. Beyond his place, you can find a calm stream of water that will lead you to your next destination.

 

It almost makes you forget the apocalypse.

Menu

Alan has also been working on rewriting the menu, working towards trying to give Estranged a less Half-Life 2-y feel. That’s not very exciting, so here’s two screenshots. It’s shiny and new!

Just finished my playthrough. Some feedback from me:
I like the idea but it needs a bit more explanation from the characters. It's all good being obscure at the start but when you meet the character with whom you have an unfortunate incident with a chair - I feel like you should give a bit more. I found myself continuing on with no real sense of direction or anything giving me purpose to go from one place to another.
The environments are well detailed, really liked that.
The combat is a bit bog standard albeit I doubt you could have done anything about that so no worries.
I feel there's a lot of potential with this, I just have one issue:
The voice acting. It's absolutely abysmal! There's no sense of emotion behind the words that the characters are speaking and it's just driving me mad listening to it.

Aside from that one complaint and my feedback - good job, kept me interested and it's very nice.

Quite impressive for a demo, except for weak voice acting.

This was an awesome mod. A few minor things like a crowbar on the ceiling, but i guess thats me not liking a slight challenge, i just spend like 20 mins chucking the rocks at the boards, enjoying the story so far and cant wait till a more complete story comes to light.

Keep up the good work and cant wait for the new weapons coming.

P.S. Im loving them Custom Barrels!
