Vultures - Scavengers of Death is a zombie horror game, so there are a ton of enemies and threats to make the game a chilling experience. Let's dive into it! [h3]What are the different threats in the game?[/h3] [b]Zombies[/b] The zombies are the direct enemies, they won't give you any rest. They will hunt you and destroy every part of your being. You will want to either deal with them quickly or sneak your way out of theirs.

Storage and bullet management, for example, is a classic component of the survival horror genre. We wanted to bring this mechanic into turn-based combat to add an extra layer of strategy.

The map will be your best ally, only if you find it..!

For the first level happening in the Police station, we decided to go for three main enemies: [list] [*] [b]Conventional Zombies[/b]: These include members of the police force and civilians. Their inspiration comes from the Resident Evil games and several zombie movies. In the final version of the game, there will also be a female variation of these zombies. [*] [b]Arvid (known as Shadow)[/b]: These enemies exist only in the protagonists' minds. Their appearance and combat style are inspired by the guilt the characters carry from their past. Silent Hill heavily influenced the design and concept of these enemies. [*] [b]Commander Riggs[/b]: Unlike conventional zombies, this zombie can command others, giving them orders to attack in specific ways or defend him.

The tension generated by avoiding enemy detection contributes to the sense of fear we want the game to evoke.

Leopoldo is more resilient and focuses on firearm combat, while Amber excels at fast and stealthy movement. But more on them in a few weeks!
