Indy PopCon was chock full of people for us to talk to, and Chris from Ragtag Studio was no exception! Ragtag is developing Ray's The Dead, a game that puts you in the shoes of newly resurrected zombie by the name of Ray. Most people may think that zombie-based games are becoming overdone, but instead of pitting you against the zombies, this time you'll be on their side!
Ray is a newly arisen zombie who was recently resurrected, and is discovering his powers over the dead. You'll join him as he makes strange new friends and resurrects his own zombie army on his quest to find out how he was killed/died and why he was resurrected. With a style reminiscent of the 80's, Ray's The Dead offers a game unlike anything you've played before! Check out our interview below!
