‘Project Zomboid’ development is “taking a lot of cues” from ‘GTA RP’
NME, Project Zomboid developer Chris Simpson has shared that in terms of multiplayer, The Indie Stone is taking “a lot of cues” from GTA RP, a popular mod for Grand Theft Auto 5 that lets players roleplay as a citizen of Los Santos.Simpson, who is a coder and managing director at The Indie Stone, said that the popularity of GTA RP, and the community that has formed around it, has helped to shape what he envisions Project Zomboid‘s multiplayer as offering in the future.“One big thing I’d like to see is really lean into the roleplay aspect and maybe have some kind of Dungeon Master-y type functionality to aid in storytelling and multiplayer. It’s basically to really push the creative storytelling in the game in various ways.
