Scavenge for supplies, take care of your needs and the needs of your dogs, hunt or be hunted. A new glacial period has begun... will you adapt or die? This is a perma-death game, once you die you have to start over and your save file is deleted. FEATURES: -Dog sled to make moving around the extensive map easier. -Dogs are not inmortal, you must feed them, manage their energy, you even get the chance to name them every time you start a new game. -Use your dogs as hunting companions. -Huge map filled with interesting locations to explore and safe houses to loot. -Well balanced survival mechanics inspired by the real needs of the human body. These include: -Hunger -Thirst -Temperature -Weight management (inventory) -A day/night cycle that affects the temperature and other factors in the world. -A diverse wildlife to hunt or run from, including bears, wolves and rabbits. -3 different hunting tools (Rifle, crossbow and axe) -A simple yet effective looting system. -Easy and simple inventoy management menu -Friendly UI -A functional saving system. My main focus on this state of the game is to work and refine the basic survival mechanics. To add and test different gameplay ideas I have. And obviously to fix anything that needs to be fixed (bugs, glitches, balance issues). Planned Features: -NPC survivors both hostile and neutral (coming very soon) ]Co-op survival (BETA ...coming in 6 months) [/b] Survive along your friends! (4 players max) These are the two basic rules of this game-mode Things you should know before buying the game: -The map is far from complete -Currently there is only one save slot -The dogs on the sled have animation problems when attacked while running -Animal AI needs a lot of work -The game needs a lot of work in the sound area, many sounds are still missing. -The game needs a drastic balancing, right now I feel it is too easy - Loot spawn is not yet completely random, the only loot that is randomly generated is the one you get from cars -The game needs some serious optimization -Changing the graphics settings can crash (now I have not experienced this problem, but a youtuber reported to be having problems whenever he changes the quality of the graphics) -the dog sled physics have some issues
