About This Game

Dry Meadow is an atmospheric survival-FPS with emphasis on narrative journey, set in an alternative history at Finland's border to Soviet Russia. Drawing inspiration from exemplars such as Stalker, Doom and Half-Life, it aims to push the janky gzdoom-engine to its limits in order to bring forth all the best (and perhaps the worst) aspects of aforementioned classics, while telling a story of its own.

Story synopsis: A catastrophe of unknown proportions from the USSR has sent large portions of south-eastern Finland into disarray. Journey through affected lands in search of the origin of this disaster, while investigating the myriad bizarre effects it has left in its wake. You are alone in this journey, and there are frights in the way, but perhaps some solace can be found from the occasional bottle and cigarette enjoyed at a campfire.

Gameplay: A blend of shooter and survival, elements and environments play a role equal to the dangerous monsters of the land. Build fires at dusk for warmth and light, craft traps at dawn to survive another day. Watch for daylight's fast waning as you make decisions whether to venture out after dark, or play it safe huddling near a fire. Slowly make your way through beautiful but desolate landscapes in locations varying from abandoned towns to foggy swamps and silent forests. Look for clues about what has happened to the world and listen to nightly radio broadcasts to keep up with the unfolding events.
