I only read the highlighted parts. It doesn't make sense
AliasBecauseReasons
The game is called Aberford made by Sketchy Panda Games. They had to nuke the idea though. I don't think they had enough funding.
liam33
all men dying off huh, why doesn't it surprise me this comes from tumblr?
cupcakegrenade
THEY ARE FFS
Mariska
Not a video game player, but I'd play the hell outta this!!
Thebuildingisonfireanditsnotmyfault
Tumblr, I can't begin to tell you how little of a shit storm this would bring.
Darko34
they still think shit like that would bring outrage, thats a solid look on reality /s
owenmason
I upvote this every time I see it.
AJJ29
Kind of like fallout protagonist if you choose a woman would play
thehandsomedoctor
I love how they think it's REVOLUTIONARY to have a character creation screen and that guys never choose to play as a girl.
muddywaterloo
Nuketown DLC.
quickhand
That sounds awesome. And if you had a husband you'd have to keep him at home (for risk of infection) while you went to "work"
JimmyDingDongs
Y, The Last Man plus zombied and 50's hotties, I dog this
bloxman
I want the game now
Purplenurplepopnurple
Wasn't there a movie with Nicole Kidman like this? It affected the wives though but similar.
ThePlotSickens
Stepford wives but they were controlled by computer chips
Purplenurplepopnurple
Then yes this movie and game should be made asap.
TacoDan2645
This is the basic concept of "Y:the last man" except there are no zombies and it takes place in modern times. And its a comic.
HandleWithDelight
This person has good taste. Read it now.
takemystrifeplease
By Brian K. Vaughn, it's awesome, also checkout Lady Killer, by Dark Horse Comics
DontMakeMeSwingOnYouBro
Fuck communism
wazeewa
I wish I was a game developer, I would so make this game.
Varderal
Want. Want want want want. I am a dude, but want.
teklanis
Gotta kidnap the zombies and strap 'em down to breed. Ensure the survival of the human race.
rinrollz
The one with the chainsaw was my costume for Halloween last year!!
ShamnusMcfee
This is a setting, not a game. It would just be another generic zombie shooter and it would likely be garbage.
Somethingrelatedtomyname
Flats lol. More like some kitten heels. This is the 50's for Christ sake
TheCrustyMustard
I still don't understand how this is any different from fallout if you play as a woman...
thehandsomedoctor
more misandry I guess
TheCrustyMustard
Ah, that's right. I forgot sexism is OK if it's against a man.
Thefrogutisalsopoisoned
Sketchy Panda Games are already doing this! They have a kickstarter too!
AvielMenter
Their kickstarter ended 5 months ago at a sixth of the requested funding.
Thefrogutisalsopoisoned
Ah ouch
lance11
No updates since Oct and kickstarted failed

"It'd be entertaining to see what guys came up with for their female-selves"? Pfffft. Like lots of guys don't cross-play in games already.
Agrena
Wait you can play Males? huh never done that how does that work?
CorneliusCornwall
Why would it cause a shitstorm? This sounds fun as fuck
vindik8or
Which part of this sounds fun? Because I can't see any gameplay described here.
GassyWizard
Lots of tumblr user feel the gaming community would be absolutely enraged if a game came out with a strong female lead character
GetSchwifty
Im just saying but if you took this exact game and reversed the genders tumblr would scream sexism. Thats my only issue. I think its cool.
Armored0Titan0
It really annoys me when people get mad about that. I mean, it's not like there's this overabundance of well-written male characters.
CorneliusCornwall
*slaps forehead* I forgot, everything is offensive and causes outrage. Thanks wizard
GassyWizard
I have done my part. *disappears in a fart cloud*
storebrandproductmascot
You mean the same gaming community that's spent the last 3 years enraged at feminists for wanting more strong female characters?
GetSchwifty
No they got outraged at people not realizing they already exist in gaming and thinking they didnt.
storebrandproductmascot
Yeah, but only if you count half-naked chicks with their tits hanging out as strong female characters.
MindOfMobius
Someone on Kickstarter did something like this
doughtnutsteel
And unfortunately they focused to look inclusive more than actually making a fun game
jetflight
They did. And it failed miserably because when you think about it, it's a boring concept.
egaode
Really? But every other zombie game is fun with no concept other than "there are zombies!"
jetflight
Audiences are pretty tired of zombies by now. And they don't trust those devs. And it's nothing new, just "housewives vs. zombies".
egaode
Well, not trusting devs is certainly one thing but I don't know about "people are pretty tired of zombies." It always gets revived.

Sauce!?
JobyJob
The kick starter ended. They are still developing it however...last i checked.
AliasBecauseReasons
No, they had to nuke it.
MindOfMobius
Didn't care enough to remember the name
frogs2345
Its called aberford. Look up sketchypanda games and they are devloping it.
WhimsicalCalamari
The Kickstarter failed and they haven't updated their dev blog since October.
hiperson134
Surprise of the century. Tumblr doesn't come up with good ideas. Like ever.
WhimsicalCalamari
The idea isn't bad. It's just that the kickstarter asked for WAY too much money for a VERY unpolished trailer & no proof of gameplay.
theonesquidworth40quid
lol get rekt
