How it feels

A grim, zombie-infested military island shooter draped in horror-film atmosphere, where the dead rise and survival feels bleak from the start.

About

The master auteur of horror takes his chilling tales of the Living Dead to a new form in this videogame based on his film series. The game is set on the Island of Ningun Futuro (Spanish for No Future), located off the coast of North America. The island is home to a secret operation military base, whose primary role was to testing weapon effects on cadavers. When the dead begin to rise, Dr Rocane the head Pathologist, thinks it is Christmas. Due to financial difficulties at publisher Hip Interactive, this game fell off development and is not expected to be resurrected ... or become an undead videogame. While never announced, the game is expected to be completely cancelled.
