It’s housewives versus the dead in Aberford

1

Aberford is a game currently in development by Sketchy Panda Games that will take place in 1950s Ohio. The game stars 4 housewives (Peggy, Betty, Sylvia, and Doris) that will be faced against strong, capable, and fast zombies. The game will be combat focused. The developer claims their goal is to create a combat system that is easy to learn but difficult to master. Rather than button mashing, you’re more efficient by chaining attacks together with timed button presses. Currently unknown as to how intricate it will be. Weapons will consist of a lot of household items like pans and vacuum cleaners, but there will also be ranged weapons like pistols.

The game will not just be combat focused but also have various dialogue choices, character interactions, and QTEs. It’s planned for release on PC and there is chance of it coming to PlayStation, Xbox, Wii, Mac, and Linux. They specified those platforms exactly. Since they’re rather vague, it’s unsure if by PlayStation they mean 3 or 4. Same for Xbox 360 or Xbox One. When they say Wii though they probably mean Wii U.

You can follow their official Tumblr, Facebook, and Youtube for more information as development continues.
