What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We’re releasing Online:404 in Early Access because we plan to continue improving the game, fixing issues, and adding new locations and gameplay mechanics based on player feedback.

The game is being developed by just two people, and we hope that feedback from the community will help us look beyond our own perspective and discover new ways to improve the game and its mechanics.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to bring the game to its final version within 6–12 months.
”

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

“We plan to add new locations, several new survival mechanics, and more ways to interact with zombies and animals. We also plan to introduce full professional voice acting for the characters and continue actively working on bug fixes.

In addition, we plan to expand the selection of mini-games available on the in-game phone based on feedback from the community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version of the game already includes all of the core gameplay mechanics, including everything shown in the trailer.

The first third of the story is available, along with co-op, resource gathering, building, crafting, hunting, farming, electricity, vehicle driving, zombies and base raids, an in-game smartphone with its own internet, and much more.

However, players may still encounter bugs and other issues, as it is extremely difficult for a team of our size to identify every problem in a project of this scale on our own. Please report any issues you find using the dedicated bug report form in the pause menu.”

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

“We’re offering the game at a reduced price during Early Access as a thank-you to players for their patience and for taking part in the development of the project.

After the release of version 1.0 and the game’s exit from Early Access, we plan to review the price based on the amount of new content added to the game.
”

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

“We plan to gather feedback from players and use it to fix bugs and issues, balance gameplay mechanics, and add new features, settings, and mechanics to the game.

About This Game

You probably wouldn’t start crafting a pickaxe, mining ore, and smelting it in a homemade furnace if you suddenly found yourself alone in an abandoned, quarantined district.

We built this game around the idea of what a real person would actually do to survive in such a situation — in today’s world.

Your smartphone is your best friend and your worst enemy

Your main survival tool is your smartphone. You don’t have a magic book of survival tips, so if you need to figure something out or craft an item — just look it up on the in-game Internet.

Your phone also has a map, flashlight, weather forecast, annoying ads, and plenty of unreliable information.

But hey — you’ve got to survive somehow, right?

Use what’s around you

Of course, you won’t be crafting a solar panel from scratch just by following an online guide. If you want electricity in your shelter, it’s probably easier to take one off a nearby abandoned house.
Keep your eyes open — the world around you is full of things that might help you stay alive.

Fortify your shelter

Wood is your main building material, but that doesn’t mean your base can’t be reinforced.

Rip a car door or hood off an old vehicle and bolt it to your wooden wall — and all of a sudden, unwanted visitors will have a much harder time getting inside.

Look around — is there anything else you can use?

Explore the world

Make your way through a surprisingly vibrant abandoned District, observe animal behavior, hunt, farm, build your shelter, and maybe even adopt a pet.

Restore an old car, and traveling through the Leminsgale District will become much easier.

Follow the story

The district was sealed off years ago, never fully evacuated.

Those who remained lost their minds and have been wandering aimlessly ever since. They won’t welcome your visit.

But what really happened to them? Another epidemic? Some strange fungus again? Or did something far worse shatter their minds?

Together with one of the district’s former residents, you’ll uncover what truly went wrong in Leminsgale.

Play alone or with friends

Team up for the story campaign or just mess around together.

Choose one of four characters, each with unique stats and starting gear — and head out into Leminsgale District.

It’s waiting for you! Or not?
