Infection-New Edition! v.3

Hello everybody, I know recently I said I wasn't going to be working on Infection much, but in my spare time I've been working on the next version I want to try out of Infection.(v3.0!)
This is going to be very different from the previous versions, as I want to focus on storyline and not so much about doing quests and whatnot.
For starters, I'd like to list a few changes:

1- Converting over to the 2k3 engine using the DBS
2- Black and white graphics, or grey tinted
3- New zombie/infected battler sprites
4- Random encounters, no on screen events On screen events with randomly numbered infected.
5- Plans to make houses/buildings your shelter/timed infected attacks
6- New music!

And like I said, I'm going to be working hard to have a good storyline implemented and work on dialogue and that sorta stuff.
I know this game has gone through many changes and versions/play styles, but I'm really liking the feeling of this one, very creepy and eerie.
The battles will be much more interesting I can assure you. Now that I'm using the 2k3 dbs, infected can attack you if you're idle during your decision phase, you can get grappled and held and have to break free with an all new skill tree called Survival.
So I'm excited about the battle system change up the most I think, as I think the old one gets really repetitive, this time around it should be much more survival then just a simple hit and go, turn based system.


This will be coming soon!
I'll try to have a playable demo out and show all the changes that it has undergone.
Thanks everyone, and to my subscribers, hope I can please the zombie/horror enthusiasts out there with this version!

(I know I've shown a similar image to this one awhile back, but I have the colors right now and like the BW/grey style!)

Sweet! :D Get out there and tell me what you think!
I'll be getting back to you soon on the alpha release, and give my opinions.

You know the current game is in RM2k3, right? This is an old blog. :P
The version before this was all in 2k, and I think it really lacked.

I will however look into the Dynrpg plugins, might find something useful to spice it up!
Oh my bad, I haven't played this in a while. All the more reason to play it then :D

Just a question concerning converting to Rm2k3, why the change if you don't mind me asking?
Mainly for the battle system, among other minor things that rm2k3 handles better.
I had 2k from the beginning so I figured it was time for change!
Just so you know, I am actually a fan of the turn based combat and I think making a move to Rm2k3's battle system will slow it down as it is ATB based. Unless your planning to utilise DynRpg plugins to enhance it I wouldn't advise switching as you haven't really given a legitimate reason for doing so.

Awesome Avee, hopefully it won't disappoint on the demo release!
I've been getting some really nice and dark atmospheric tracks, so they add a nice level of horror (thanks epischdrew for the links!)
Some nice zombie growls and whatnot would be nice, I've thought about adding them and had them implemented at one time but I wasn't very pleased with it. I should start searching for better ones soon!
Can't wait for the download!
Surrounding scary sound effects and zombie growls could add some good atmosphere... dunno if you thought about that already.

This looks great! What will the storyline be?
