I had Jude redesigned. This is how he looks now, and it would be his appearance when you meet him at the grocery store in Part 2.

Appearance (for visually impaired followers): Jude is a man with dark hair & olive skin, wearing a makeshift ghillie suit of cardboard, cans, plastic bags, and trash.

Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven, Part 4 Sneak Peek | Jim Dattilo Get more from Jim Dattilo on Patreon

Here's a new poll for ZESH Part 4. It contains major spoilers for the end of Part 4. I'm curious if it has all of the options you want. You can discuss this by leaving a comment on Patreon.
www.patreon.com/posts/zombie...

Coming soon to ZESH.

Serious question: which one of these do you prefer for options when presented with a choice:

1 - All options with some grayed out if you don't have the correct skill/item.
2 - Only options where you have the skill/item available.
3 - All options with a chance to succeed/fail.

For those of you interested: I have a few new objects you can craft coming in ZE:SH Part 4:

Landmines
Security cameras
Stimulant injector.

Thinking of adding new variables to track more prologue choices—deeper layers to the story. The catch? You might need to replay to see the new content in Part 4. Would that bother you, or are you cool with revisiting the beginning to uncover more later?
