Zombie's Retreat 1 XL Update | First Look (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

In case anyone missed the announcement earlier this year, Zombie's Retreat 1 is getting a new XL update!

Today, I'll go over some of what you can expect to see as well as the planned release window.

== XL Edition ==

The XL update for Zombie's Retreat 1 will scale the game up to match ZR2's larger resolution! Rather than upscale and stretch the art, all of the scenes have been manually rescaled from their original resolution in order to avoid any quality loss!

A few NSFW scenes have also been reanimated for a newer, smoother look! The animator has improved significantly since the early ZR1 days so it's been nice to see some of those original scenes get enhanced. Not every scene is getting completely reanimated but I'm trying to focus on scenes that feel like they'd benefit the most from getting a refresh.

To spice the update up a little more, two scenes are also getting complete makeovers. Leslie's first bath scene and Rachel's first scene have both been redrawn to better match the series' updated look and feel. I'm still keeping the original scenes in as well in case you're feeling nostalgic!

Stay tuned later this month for teasers of those scenes for $3+ ZR Patrons!

== Release Window ==

Currently, I'm looking at a late May release for the XL update! However, I'm also considering pushing the release back into June in order to squeeze in a couple more refreshed animations.

As the month continues on, I'll let you all know what I decide on! I want to jump back into ZR2 development as soon as possible so I don't want to have the release of ZR1 XL drag on too much either.

======

That's everything for this update! I hope you're looking forward to the return to Camp Zomi! Thank you all so much for playing and supporting Zombie's Retreat 1 & 2!
