Notes

• This is a double edged sword type of scenario, as you can start in the wilderness, with all the fruits of vegetables of Summer available to you from the start, however, Summer is one of the two deadlier seasons of the game alongside Winter, as you can overheat, and because more than a year has passed in this scenario, many zombies have already evolved into their more powerful forms. Your character will often have to abandon most of their articles of clothing due to the intense heat, and this makes encounters with these evolved monsters all the more worse.
