Ashes Afterglow TC - closing the vault

Post by Vostyok »

Image

Sometime in the last century, a one-megaton blast annihilated the city of New York. Subsequent explosions rippled across the globe, triggered by an unknown aggressor. The face and nature of the world was changed forever. Out of the ruins have emerged bizarre and twisted monsters, strange, otherworldly phenomena and a people driven by savagery.

In the desiccated heart of old America, settlements struggle to survive the eerie wastes, mutated lifeforms... and each other.

You are a scavenger. Stalker. Junker. The names are many but the profession remains the same - discover the lost treasures of the old world and get back home in one piece.

But the world before will not easily give up its secrets, and even now new powers are emerging, also keen to claim their share.

What is ASHES: AFTERGLOW?
-------------------------------------------
Ashes: Afterglow is the belated second episode of the Ashes post-apocalyptic Doom total-conversion.

Afterglow - The Story So Far
-------------------------------------------
Following the events of 2063, Afterglow finds the scavenger recovering from the battle within The Spire. Things in The City have taken a turn for the worst, and it looks like you'll be needing to leave town... before they throw you out. Unfortunately, transportation is another issue entirely. You'll need to hurry though. Events have been set in motion that affect the fate of mankind itself. And a mysterious voice from the past returns, promising to remake America... at any cost.

Brilliant, but I have a question. Does Ashes Afterglow include episode 1 and new graphics for the enemies, including the boss of episode 1?

Spare gas mask filters, check. A few doses of antirad, check. Enough ammunition to take down a Master, check.
I don't think I can be any more ready.
Time to sit back, relax, inhale some radioactive air, and wait to smell the Ashes.

The video looks more gray and darker than in the first part, which is great!

They will be separate downloads. I'm planning to update the original episode with some of the improvements made during Episode 2. I'll try to release that 'Remaster' just before the second episode is uploaded.


And thank you for all the comments :D
This mod has driven me mad, but I am determined to finish it. I'll upload some more info soon.
