Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“As a solo developer, it's difficult for me to develop a project like this. I decided that when the first playable version is released, it will be in Early Access, so I can gradually refine and release updates to the game. I'll also be able to listen to the community about which features should be developed first.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I plan to continue to refine the game in Early Access until 2027 or 2028, and after release I will continue to release updates, but not as large-scale as during Early Access.”

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

“I plan to finalize enemy intelligence, improve existing systems, and add new features, events, and maps.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version already contains the core game systems and is fully playable. Players can earn money, defend their home, heal, manage resources, and survive various events. Most of the features described in the game description are already implemented or are not yet fully implemented and require further refinement.”

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

“Definitely yes. I plan to increase the price if the game gains popularity or leaves Early Access.”

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

“I created a discord server where everyone can suggest ideas, chat with other players, or follow the news. X, YouTube, and TikTok are also available. I'll post news or gameplay updates there.”

About This Game

The most important thing in this game is to protect your home at any cost!

BUILDING

Inside your home, you'll be able to build ANY structures that will help you survive dangerous events. You'll have to build fortifications, additional doors, traps, barricades, and other engineering solutions. The only limit is physics.

REALISTIC INTERACTION

Every object must be interacted with just like in real life. Every action has its own dedicated key.

CHARACTER HEALTH & CONTROLS

To survive, you'll need to take care of your needs: food, water, fatigue, stress, and health. The character has a fully simulated set of organs, bones, and arteries. You will die when oxygenated blood stops reaching your brain. Your character can crouch, blink, move objects, and even control their body while falling thanks to a controllable ragdoll system.

RAIDS & EVENTS

During the day or at night, when you least expect it, different events can happen to you. Police raids, mafia raids, extreme weather conditions, or even just a cruel prank.

EARNING MONEY & SURVIVAL

To survive and succeed, you'll need money for food, medicine, weapons, and building materials. The game offers different ways to earn money — both legal and illegal.

MAPS & DIVERSE GAMEPLAY

At the beginning of the game, you can choose a map and difficulty, or simply test the physics, experiment with the game's features, and try out different mechanics in Sandbox Mode.

Don't let your home become your grave.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

The game contains blood, foul language, images of drugs, weapons, and may also include an overdose of medications/drugs, agony from wounds (death from bleeding).
