En dragshow under en zombieapokalyps... Det är en förenklad beskrivning av Tiamat Studios kommande Killer Eyelashes, ett storydrivet äventyr som följer ett gäng excentriska karaktärer som måste rädda mänskligheten med hjälp av de krafter de fått efter en överdos av kontaminerat smink.
Ett minst sagt udda spel - men betyder titeln verkligen att folk blir dödade av ögonfransar? Svaret är nej. Det handlar snarare om en lek med ord, där "killer" syftar på de dödligt snygga odöda i spelet. Fidel Lorite från Tiamat Studios förklarar:
"It's a setup, it's on a zombie apocalypse, but it's a little bit of a twist. These zombies are not the kind of zombies that pursue you, to eat you. They use bad make-up, because the make-up in the world has been contaminated with microorganisms, and then they find other people to make-up, to convert them into bad make-up zombies. Except the Dread Queens, because of the overdose of make-up, they have some kind of superpowers, and now they are the only hope for humanity."
När det gäller vad mer man kan förvänta sig av projektet och hur dess gameplay fungerar berättar Lorite om likheterna med Ace Attorney:
"There is some kind of trial action, because every six episodes that we have planned have different steps for each gameplay. The first one is more like combat oriented, we made some kind of narrative combats, that is based on the shade that the drug world used to communicate. So you have replies to overcome the answer for your rival, and then we have another step that is more investigation. There are some crimes, and you need to investigate a little bit, but everything is based on comedy. So everything is developed for like, we have like 13 characters that are running through the game, and it's changing the gameplay for these players, for these characters that appears in the game."
