Latest Updates from Our Project:

April 2023 - Update
over 1 year ago – Fri, Apr 14, 2023 at 07:02:13 AM

Greetings, Survivors! 

According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the two most basic groups of needs for human beings are physiological needs and safety needs. Especially in the post-apocalyptic world, where the infection has taken over the world, the ability to protect your Infection Free Zone becomes crucial. Today we would like to shortly talk to you about the gates and walls for your settlement! 

Gates

While seemingly mad and reckless, the infected are smarter than one might think. Hordes are capable of identifying inhabited buildings and are willing to take them down with brute force. That's why focusing on defense - towers, walls, and gates - is important quite early into the game. 

While building those structures, you will have the option to use different resources and make them more durable over the course of the game. Mind you, some of them might require investing in the technology tree first, but overall, you will be able to build wooden, metal, and brick defensive structures. If you are curious about how the gates will work in practice, watch the video below: 

Walls

In the very same way, walls are also using different resources. We have recently worked on their animations and how they should fall down when destroyed. As we are really happy with the current results, we want to share the second video with you too: 

What do you think about those two videos? Do you see anything that raises your attention? We are really interested in getting to know your feedback! 

Release date

Some of you are asking us about the release date of the game. April 2023 which has been initially set up in the Kickstarter Campaign won't be possible for us. We are constantly doing our best to make the game bigger and better. Currently, we believe that it might be possible to launch the game somewhere at the beginning of Q4 2023, but the final decision will depend on the beta tests and your feedback. We don't want to force the release of an unfinished game that will leave you unsatisfied. 

Delivery INC

At the end of this update, we want to provide a quick shoutout to our friends from the DIGIFOX studio. Those guys are working hard on Delivery INC, which is another game based on real-world maps and we think that they do an incredible job. If you're really into the games that allow you to play on your hometown, Delivery INC might be right up your alley! 

Best regards,

Greetings, Survivors!

A new update is now available on Steam! There is a number of significant graphical improvements, but you will also be able to use cars, machine guns, walls, and a few more things. Check out Steam for more details :)

What you might find the most interesting is that the map download now works and you can play on a region of your choice ;) Please mind that this is still a pre-alpha, so some errors can be expected. 

Once you try it, please follow the in-game feedback form link and answer a few questions. We wonder how you like the progress!

Weather and Environment Update
almost 2 years ago – Mon, Dec 05, 2022 at 05:29:53 AM

Greetings, Survivors! 

Is it snowing in your hometown area yet? Or maybe there's no snow at all for the whole year? It is no coincidence that we are asking these questions right now! We have been recently working hard on improving the way that the game looks throughout all the seasons and today we want to give you a little sneak peek! 

Visual Changes

What has been changed:

  • New tree assets have been added. These trees can move in the wind and we spawn the types that fit the selected geographical location. 
  • New grasses and bushes have been added. We are doing our best to make the environment have this wild and post-apocalyptic feeling to it while keeping the optimization in check! 
  • New clouds (visible through shadows on the ground) have been added. 
  • New props on the map have been added to make the environment look more varied - wooden logs, debris, trash containers, and others! 
  • New weather effects have been added. Storm, rain, snow - new sound effects are also on the way! 
  • New season effects have been added. The new trees will not only lose their leaves in the Winter but also have this great golden color in the Autumn now! 

Of course, our work here is not over yet! But we thought that you might appreciate us sharing those new visuals for the weather and environment with you! 

Timelapse Video

Check all of these newest changes in our short time-lapse video! 

How do you like the changes to weather and environment from this update? Do you like them? Or maybe something's missing? Let us know how you feel about all these latest visual changes in Infection Free Zone!
