Survive & Thrive - A Medieval Survival Game

The year is 1348 and the Bubonic plague is in full height.There are strange stories coming from a small land in the east about walking skeletons rising from the earth but they were all shrugged off as crazy talk untill one day the army of bones Marched west upon man. The already worn out western Sovereignty's were given no choice but to unite and push them back to that small land in the east only known today as the fallen lands. A great wall was then built around these lands to separate it from the rest of the civilized world. That is were you come in, a lone survivor stuck on the wrong side of the wall. With all the horrors the plague has given birth to will you only survive in the now barren land or will you thrive?


Planned Features

- Explore and loot many different castles and towns varying in layout and size on a large map!

Cool beans ill be definitely be following this project looks great so far. I would recommend changing the fog, in the video the trees in the background looked weird, you can see it at 1:53 in the video.

Thank you for the feedback, I agree with you about the fog.

 

Awesome! Might want to turn off shadows for weapons being held

 

Yeah it looks awkward and alone without the body

 

Liked the hemophobia part. You could implement a game mechanic that causes you to pass out when you look at blood, similar to a horror element.

 

Was thinking about doing that, but not sure how many people would of actually liked it.

 

Holy cow! That tree flew meters away!

 

Yea, haha, It wasn't supposed to do that.

 

Looks good so far, what's going to be different about your game compared to the likes of "The Forest"?

 

I like in the video @ 0:49 when you chop the tree and it flew really far back. You paused for like 5 seconds thinking "WTF LOL"...

Can't wait to see more updates!

 

Looks neat I hope to see more!

 

I don't have in mind all the features that will be in the final build. But the fact that you will have to deal with the harsh environment of winter as food source's will decrease. And you will have to struggle to remain warm and feed. Giving interesting gameplay of having to stockpile wood, food etc.. before winter hits to keep fires burning and food in your stomach. This will give it some distinction from the forest and some other games out there.

 

I feel cold just looking at this

 

Winter is coming! (game of thrones reference) New update coming this month with tons of new features to show!

Watching that snowstorm roll in looked awesome! Can imagine seeing that then freaking out and running away to hide in my shelter haha

 

Appreciate the positive feedback, thank you!

Sorry for going so long without posting anything been busy finishing school. But now I'm back and got a lot of changes that have been made. The game is now based in a medieval setting. You can get updated with the story and a few screenshots in the beginning of this thread. If your wondering why i deleted a hefty amount of my posts i made on this thread it was because it showed images and videos of the old Survive & Thrive. Out with the old and in with the new as they say! But mainly i did not want to confuse people saying this is a medieval game when then there's a picture of an assault rifle. Anyways there will be a new update out on my Youtube channel. So stay tuned for that.
To be shown in the Update
______
-Day/Night Cycle with dynamic clouds
-Crafting
-Building
-Gathering resources (Chopping down the trees/mining etc..)
-The new inventory and looting
-The map and terrain
-Hunger/Thirst system
-Enemy's
- and Much more i cant think of right now!

 

Can't wait for the next update!
