Today’s game is Zomboid. Me and my friend continued the adventure of Cable and Jerry.

We went and looted a farm building for crops and hoping to find a watering can. Sadly we didn’t find any but we did walk away with 8 sacks of stale potatoes. After that we decided to gear up for Louisville and make a journey to the Military Base there.

The car we were going to use had a broken window though so Jerry cruised into town and ripped apart all the cars he saw to get his mechanics up and then got into a scuffle with some zombies at the police station after they caught him stealing their car seats.

After that we spent all (in-game) night looking for a single fucking window for the car that wasn’t already destroyed in a wreck. Finally nearly a hour later we found the right one outside a school. I stole the window and sped off home to install it to our cargo car.

After that we packed the car and drove off for Louisville. We had to briefly make our car a train because the bridge was covered in burned out wrecks so we turned onto the railroad bridge. After merging back onto the highway and plowing our way through zombies, we made it to the military base.

It was surprisingly empty, but we loaded a ton of Ammo and Guns into the car and an extra generator. On the way back we made a trip to a gas station, filled up our Gas Tanks, we got lucky and found the Watering Can where we didn’t expect, and then robbed a liquor store and sped off because the alarms on the window called the horde.

Once we got home, I got to work leveling up my carpentry. I built a shelf in Cable’s rooms, and he put his pet Rollypolly he called Pipsqueak on the shelf. I took a screenshot of the shelf and if you zoom in far enough and look past the JPEG artifacts you may be able to see Pipsqueak (the gray speck on the bottom left corner of the shelf)

Yeah. The tutorial can be ruthless. I remember being scared a little by it when I first played it a few years ago.

I remember seeing a mod that swaps the zombies for one immortal one that always knows where you are (like the snail). Have you tried that with the eldritch mod?

I never heard of it, I'm intrigued now. Do you remember what it was called?
