Early Access Game

Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a solo indie developer, I need feedback from players.
Taking part in "Early Access", testing new content, and getting feedback from players are very important to my development.
This helps me build our community and make better decisions based on real conditions.
I also need players' suggestions to help us make a fun game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I think Early Access will last from 4 months to 1 year.
It depends on the feedback I get, including players' reviews and suggestions, the game's sales, and the number of players.
Some features will be completed no matter what. These can be finished in about 4 to 6 months.
The rest depends on how Early Access goes. I hope to complete these updates within 1 year.
The game may still be updated after the full release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will have more complete gameplay.
I hope the full version will include:
  • An improved tech tree and building system, giving players more possibilities.
  • An improved procedurally generated world.
  • Multi-story buildings.
  • A complete in-game guide to make the game easier to get into.
  • Complete skill and construction systems, a deeper character progression path, and a more complete production line system.
  • Complete gameplay, with massive zombie hordes and tower defense elements.
  • More content: more weapons, more enemy types, and vehicle modification.
If there are enough players, the following content may be added:
  • Online co-op: invite your friends to play together.
  • Other game modes, such as a fast-paced battle royale match against NPCs.
  • Human NPC strongholds and quests.
”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The "Early Access" version is already fully playable, with more content than some full-release games. However, there may still be some unknown bugs.
  • A huge procedurally generated map with many types of chunks, such as towns, wilderness, and military camps. Each type of chunk has its own architectural style, so every playthrough is a different experience.
  • Gameplay full of detail. You can build a shelter, live as a hunter in the wilderness, or roam the land in your car.
  • Hundreds of items.
  • More than ten types of enemies.
  • 11 vehicles.
  • Randomly generated buildings in more than ten architectural styles.
”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“It depends on how much content we add.
The price of the full version may be higher than the Early Access price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I will listen to our players and adopt some of their suggestions.
I also collect player feedback through Steam discussions, social media, and other channels.
If you have good suggestions, you can send them to me by email.
My email is ”

About This Game

  • Juggernaut: A pack-behavior infected that lives in symbiosis with its host organism. Yeah... it doesn't look friendly.

  • Breaker: Extremely destructive, unstable, aggressive, and short-tempered. If this thing rams into you, good luck putting yourself back together.

  • Fan Blade: A heavily modified mutant showing clear signs of artificial augmentation. We're still trying to figure out where the hell it came from.

  • Army Zombie: Damn! You must've been the kind of coward who was afraid to empty a full magazine when you were alive!

  • Flamethrower Zombie: Once a soldier who fell defending the city. Now it's everyone else's problem.

  • Firefighter Zombie: Never thought getting sprayed by this thing would hurt this much. I'm never playing with fire again.

  • Spider Robot: Four legs absolutely do NOT make it a spider. Who the hell named this thing—damn it, it saw me!

  • War Machine: So this is what they did with my tax money?! What else are they hiding from us?!

  • Giant Mutant Lizard: Wait... that thing used to be just a lizard? Has it gotten even bigger...? Oh crap, IT'S COMING!

  • Gun Modding System: Four attachment slots are now available: barrel, sight, stock, and shell collector. More than 40 weapon attachments can be installed, including scopes, night vision scopes, thermal sights, suppressed barrels, muzzle suppressors, tactical stocks, a Christmas-exclusive shell collector, and more. Mix and match attachments to freely customize weapon performance and handling.

  • Spray Paint System: Give your favorite weapon its own custom look. The game includes 8 built-in spray paints, and you can also import your own colors and images to create exactly the style you want.

  • Decals: The game also includes 8 built-in decals, and you can create custom stickers to give your weapons even more personality.

  • Construction & Production: From wells, furniture, and storage containers to furnaces and workbenches, gradually turn your base into a fully functional post-apocalyptic stronghold where you can live, craft, and produce supplies.

  • Power System: More than 10 electrical facilities and tools are now available, including generators, refrigerators, electric fences, energy storage modules, and more. It's time to light up the age of electricity once again.

  • Creative Building: Five types of material blocks are coming soon: wood, stone, metal, glass, and hay. Build your shelter however you want and create a base that truly belongs to you.

Survival is getting tougher by the day. If you want to sleep safely at night, you're going to need some serious defenses. Defensive structures and traps are already available, with automated firepower coming soon.

  • Defensive Structures: Wood Spike Traps, Metal Spike Traps, and Electric Fences help keep danger outside where it belongs.

  • Traps: Landmines, Handmade Landmines, High Explosive Landmines, and Homemade Barrel Bombs could be what gets you through the night.

  • Automated Firepower: Machine Gun Turrets, Tesla Turrets, Laser Turrets, and Crossbow Turrets. Another miracle of electrical engineering. Apocalypse-made, survivor-approved!

The game now features more than 200 craftable items, including food, medicine, tools, weapons, and other survival essentials.

  • Workbench: Craft the essentials you need to survive, along with the tools you'll never want to leave home without. And once you know what you're doing... you can probably make some pretty dangerous stuff too.

  • Lathe: In the apocalypse, if you need a part, you make it yourself. Just remember—there's no workers' compensation anymore, so watch your fingers.

  • Pharmaceuticals: It's the end of the world. You're seriously worried about allergies now? Drink it and hope for the best. If it keeps you alive, it works.

  • Chemical Experiments: This one's a little dangerous. Gunpowder, explosives, fuel... personally, I pay someone else to handle this stuff. Great output. Terrible employee retention.

The Skill System includes three major training categories: Melee, Firearms, and Fitness, with six progression directions covering blades, spears, crossbows, firearms, and more. With over 20 progression paths and 60+ skills, you can freely create your own build.

Using your PDA Terminal, you'll gradually unlock more skills. Mastering the right survival techniques might be the difference between making it home and becoming someone else's loot.

Your PDA doesn't just improve your basic capabilities—it can also provide active combat support through its onboard computing power.

Grapple, CAS System, Focused Laser Cannon, Western Gunslinger—use them at the right moment, and they might just save your life.

This time, we're adding an adorable dog to your team to keep you company on your journey through the apocalypse.

Friendly, obedient, and fiercely loyal, your dog will stay by your side and help with exploration, keeping watch, and combat, gradually becoming a reliable member of your survival team.

  • Bonding & Care: Remember to feed your dog, treat its injuries, and give it a few pats every now and then. Do that, and you'll be seeing plenty of happy tail wags.

  • Skill Training: A loyal dog knows how to help. Train it well, and it'll learn to follow your commands!

  • Pet Equipment: Collars, vests, saddlebags—you can gear your dog up too. Every piece has its purpose, so don't underestimate your four-legged teammate. Early game? You might be relying on it more than you'd expect.

Welcome to the apocalypse's very own Zombie-Uber Mercenary Service.

Need someone to do the dirty work? Hire them. Planning a long trip outside the base? One tap and we'll make sure you've got backup.

Since launch, our customer satisfaction rating has remained comfortably above 100%. Zero negative reviews so far. Totally trustworthy. Probably.

  • Who Are You Hiring? Rangers, Medics, Porters, and more—each role comes with its own strengths. Fighters go to the front, Medics keep everyone alive, and Porters haul your entire life savings back home. In the apocalypse, hiring the right person for the right job matters.

  • Commands & Combat: Stay Here, Hold Fire, Protect Me, Fire at Will—you name it. You didn't hire these people to stand around looking pretty. Give them something to do.

  • Scavenging: Before I hired you, you called me a loot goblin. Now that I'm paying you, what do you call me? Boss. Now get out there and pick up EVERYTHING. One person can't loot fast enough? Fine. Hire a whole post-apocalyptic scavenger squad.

  • Reviving Companions: Someone went down? Don't start planning the funeral just yet. Get over there, patch them up, and pull them back onto their feet. If they can still work, they can still fight. In the apocalypse, every pair of hands counts.
