About This Game

The yearly trip to your family's hunting cabin in the mountains. A strange green meteor shower, and subsequent storm. Communications were knocked out. The pass collapsed. Now you're stranded!

The corrupted environment has mutated beasts, and an atmosphere that might offer a blizzard one day and then a scorcher the next!

Manage illness, broken bones, raw or frozen food, clean water and limited supplies (i.e. ammo).

Try to survive the known and unknown, while hunting, crafting and fishing. Attempt to re-establish communications - and perhaps solve the mystery of the green glow. The outside world may be an apocalypse now for all you know; choose whether to re-establish communications or give up on rescue.

Explore the open world, or follow the story. Play single player offline, or co-op with a friend. (We currently support a direction connection between a maximum of 2 players, via Online assistance or LAN.)

This is version 1. We will actively update the game with new features, and bug patches if necessary. We will also be listening to player input. Our first goal is to improve co-op, improve any remaining stability needs, and consider ideas that players submit.

The Supporter's Edition and both DLC's are mostly there for people who want to support us. Although zombies, extra decorations and pet choices can be fun either way. 

Thank you for your support, patience and feedback! We value it, we love this genre and we like to have semi-realistic explanations for everything.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

We paid for human-made assets, models and music (free human-made sound effects aside). The game is ours, we put a lot of effort into it and we love the genre. The story, text, code, etc. belong to us. We used 'AI' tools to bridge small gaps like checking for errors, for player benefit, a placeholder logo, until a friend makes one for us, and animation smoothing, which we can hire someone to do when we have more resources. I imagine a lot of people are dishonest about this, afraid it'll be mistaken for slop. But we will follow the rules and be transparent. Thanks for understanding!

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Hunting and skinning animals with firearms, bow and knife. Shooting zombies in a DLC. Optionally shooting hazmat NPCs in co-op. Pet can die in hardcore mode. Blood can be turned off. There's no gore.
