"My Sister... S-She might still be out there!"
Meet Natasha, a shy student camper just trying to survive the summer. A zombie breakout seems to have made her even more reclusive but, after some TLC, I'm sure she'll come around!
Release date for Zombie's Retreat Beta 0.1 is planned for June 22nd for $5+ Patrons and June 25th if testing goes smooth. The art is complete but there is a lot on my end that I still want to accomplish. This build is one of t...

Hey guys! Bringing a quick update just to talk about the new tier really fast.
If you are familiar with Town of Passion's tier system, this is nothing new! If not, this tier works as an early access/beta test tier. If you are a $5 Patron (or higher), when a new build is ready, I will post an exclusive link to those Patrons.
The point of this build is to do a soft launch of the new build and spot check for any major bugs or sequence breaks before I launc...

Hey guys! Just giving another progress report on what's going on with the next build!
== Beta 0.1 ==
Town of Passion 0.7 is finished (link) so now attention is shifting into 0.1.
All of the mandatory art is already completed! Currently, I'm just waiting on scenes to be animated as well as a possible set of additional art.
== Release Info ==

*She's actually looking at me in disgust/disappointment for taking so long to update...
Town of Passion's 0.7 update is wrapping up so I've been consumed with that currently along with a very busy month. Fortunately made some background progress on ZR so the build is actually far ahead considering I haven't dedicated my attention to it yet.
With that said, aiming for a mid/late June release for 0.1! It would potentially be sooner but I'll be away from my home...

Sometimes, in the midst of a zombie outbreak, you need some simple activities to help feel normal again! So a nice innocent movie night is the perfect remedy! Just so long as no naughty scenes come on....
Here's a look at some upcoming content for the Beta 0.1 build! Town of Passion's 0.7 build is getting close to wrapping up so I will focus my attention on creating this new ZR build fairly soon! Art is moving along nicely. I've also got Sijix working on his ...

Here's the first look at the sis of your 'maid' in Zombie's Retreat! She's the head Camp Counselor for the student Summer Camp in Camp Zomi and is the one who made this Summer trip possible!
Disclaimer- all characters are unrelated to the MC so she definitely is not your Aunt or any other family role.
Despite this being the time that I focus more on Town of Passion, I (believe) I've been able to fix up the combat system so zombie interactions should be much more reliable n...

Hey guys, Siren here with the first update after the Alpha Release!
For the most part, everything went smooth with the Alpha build. There were some combat issues that I'm currently getting sorted out but most complaints were mainly about resource scarcity which I was expecting (more on that later)
Anyways, let's get into the meat of this update!
== Release Info ==
In case you weren't aware, I currently develop two separate titles; Town of Pas...

I didn't want to delete this post since there's meaningful feedback in the comments so I edited the post. Patreon is requiring me to place a link here so I just slapped the itchio page >_>
Anyways- I took down AlphaV2 because, unfortunately, the tested changes actually break the game further.
-Disabling the key plugin that causes some users to not be able to play also disables the crafting features so items were completely free.
-Zombie softlock bug occasionally p...

Hey guys! To start off, thank you for your support and interest so far in playing Zombie's Retreat! I've been racing around reading posts and discovering glitches so I'm going to be releasing a second revision of the Alpha very soon (likely tomorrow).
Issues that are going to be attempted to be fixed:
- undefined is not a function -
This error exists for a small amount of people playing Town of Passion as well. I did some testing on...

It's been a couple months in the making so I figured a few hours early wouldn't hurt. Here's the Alpha build of Zombie's Retreat!
Do note that this is the Alpha build; a significant amount of time was spent building maps and building a core set of gameplay mechanics. I was able to get ~30 minutes of gameplay playing str...

Hey guys! Here's the last update before the Zombie's Retreat Alpha goes live!
I'll start with the big news; the Alpha is releasing on April 12th!
== What to Expect ==
Like I've stressed before, this build is an Alpha and there's a lot more to come still which also includes gameplay. I have a lot more mechanics planned but it doesn't make sense to add them yet since they will be progression-based.
Don't expect to get ton...

Hey guys! Figured with the Alpha approaching soon, I'd start talking about some of the gameplay a little more.
I had some small discussions on the Discord about what you guys wanted to see for scavenging and so far the core mechanics are all fleshed out.

In various places you'll find salvage points where you find 3 random items with various chances of appearing and the rates/items vary between places. These points refresh two days later.

What's an H game without some good ol' bath time fun. Clearly the main character seems distraught that the bathwater's gone cold.
...Right? Pretty sure that's what that face means.
If you didn't read the update earlier, I'm hoping to have the Alpha build out by early April, hopefully in that first week. Still a lot that needs to be done but progress is rapidly pushing on!

Hey guys! Siren here back with another update.
Progress on Zombie's Retreat is going pretty well! Right now I've been making some pretty solid progress on the initial maps that you'll be able to explore. I've got plans for a few more though as time goes on so the map should gradually grow with time.
== NSFW Content + Rules ==
Some people have been asking about what type of 'content' will be in the game and I will say. There will b...

Sending a bunch of high school graduates away to a summer camp... Surely they won't get into any trouble right?
Here's one of the new scenes that will be in the Alpha release! This scene will actually have a couple variants so don't be afraid to try your luck out a few times ;)

Hey guys! Siren here back with another update already for Zombie's Retreat!
== New Tier! ==
I decided to go ahead and open the next tier up for a few reasons that I'll mention but now the Delinquent ($3) tier is up! This tier, just like the Aristocrat ($3) tier in Town of Passion will be where I will be posting occasional sneak peaks/sketches of the upcoming hardcore content in Zombie's Retreat.

Hey guys!! Siren back with another update and there's been quite a lot that's happened in the past couple of weeks! I'll start with the thing that most people are probably curious about:

Here's a new character in A Zombie's Retreat!
For the sake of... simplicity, we'll call her S! She's not exactly thrilled to be dragged along on this retreat since she's not a huge fan of the outdoors life. Despite her tough exterior, I'm sure this bonding trip will help strengthen your relationship!

Hey guys! Just wanted to do a quick update. I went ahead and set up the first tier, the $1/Camper tier since so many of you guys have already pledged! I wasn't expecting so many Patrons already! X_X
Thank you guys immensely for your support! This tier adds a Discord invite to the Siren's Domain discord. Things /should/ work properly but we may have to troubleshoot if you guys find that you aren't receiving invites. If you've already pledged, I believe you also have to edit your ...

Hey guys! Siren here with a brand new project that has been in the works for a short time now; A Zombie's Retreat!
A Zombie's Retreat is a side project that will be developed alongside my main work currently, Town of Passion!
In case the naming sounds familiar, this game is intended to be sort of an unofficial sequel to the popular game, A Zombie's Life. With that said, the story will be a completely ...
