A save system in the demo would be nice, I'm scared I might lose all my progress, but really fun game, I like the combat and scavenging system.
Now we're talking!

The Great Black Swamp, and some of the new items in this build.
The biggest change here is The Great Black Swamp, an area along the south of the map that presents an impassable barrier to ground traffic. New hex art, encounter art, toxic water, water tester, headlines, and data files are all added to the game as part of the swamp's impact on the area.
Cannibalism has also been addressed, making it less desirable to subsist on human flesh, and for beta players, less lucrative at the market.
The quick recipe system had a few improvements made, which should hopefully reduce the number of accidental ingredient uses (like burning a rifle to make a campfire). It also now supports grouping, so there should be fewer redundant recipes listed. The game will try alternate, similar recipes behind the scenes if the primary one doesn't work.
The loot frequency has been tweaked a bit, so major piles of stuff should be smaller than before. Finding stuff tends to be pretty easy in 0.979, so this should temper that a bit.
Plus, there is a new creature out there, and it's not a pleasant one. Beware where you sleep :)
Updates Only in the Beta

- Added two new, large encounters.
- Added new, medium sized encounter.
- Added bazaar encounter when trying to sell human meat.
- Added Merga corpse item.
- Added RTG "hot Brick" cell item.
- Added RTG branches to Bob encounter.
- Added power tap terrain resource item and art to game, for free power near DMC.
- Added Concrete Forest DMC link and stub encounter.
- Fixed a bug that caused hardware to discharge too much when software was installed.
- Fixed a bug which misreported hardware prices in junk market.
- Fixed a bug that allowed flashlights to work inside containers if switched on while holding container.
- Fixed a bug that caused double nanobot repair kit charge removal in Bob encounter.
- Fixed a bug that removed creatures from savegames if they were in unexplored hex.
- Fixed DMC traffic VFX bug.
- Changed shiv recipe to not allow corpses (causes deer to be allowed).
- Changed augmented eyes purchase encounter to forbid surgery if no eyes.[/QUOTE]

How horrifying.

I suspect that it could really quickly turn your day into night.
I haven't played this in forever. I should try it again.
Looters beware, the spoon-bandit has returned.
EDIT: Never mind. I got beaten up and killed by two midgets.
EDIT2: New life. Another group of midgets tried to fight me. I stabbed one in the head with a glass shiv and they ran away. I went to a nearby town and found a scope. Through it, I was watching some raider beat up those two midgets I stabbed. I died of hypothermia in my sleep.
I was just thinking about this game today and I figured I'd never find it again
haha
Sweet mother of bumps
This update doesn't affect me much. Every time I go back into this I'll just run around murdering everything with a sling and a broad spear; then eating the Dogmen because eating humans is too easy.
I will pay you loads of berries and mushrooms to keep these damn midgets away from me.

What you could do, is to do a little trickery that would give you all the traits to start off with :v:

And how would one go about and achieve this trickery, good sir?
Dunno if anyone else ever backed it, but the game got Greenlit on Steam, and should be launching in January of the coming year.

Oh shit! When did this happen? I backed it a long time ago and never heard anything since. I was afraid people were going to downvote it because it wasn't another slenderman clone.
Oh boy, a reason to become a crazy woodland hobo clutching a wrench and a shopping bag again.

Clubbing people to death with a rifle is the only way to play
that feeling of power you get when you finally get a rifle and bullets.
Shooting a dogman for the first time feels so empowering, especially when something that would otherwise maul you runs in fear.

[sp]1 - You open the game .exe with Notepad++
2 - The first 23.000 couple of lines might look like bullshit, but it's fine.
3 - Next, you search for "Basic Human", without quotes
4 - Look down that table until you find <column name="aCapacities">6x2</column>.
5 - Change the 6x2 to 6x8, save, start game and go for it.
You're now able to fit four traits in for every basic human trait you have.
Always back up your shit before you start to edit .exes[/sp]
You're welcome!

Certainly gives an upper hand.
What the fuck is this shit - I am surviving for 5 days, traveled to hidden lake and back, no fucker has the balls to attack me, got the pass to DMC and BAM.
Marga wrath right infront of DMC gate. I try to hit it and miss every time, I try to run away and it finishes my athletic, strong and melee character in 3 hits.
This is outright unfair

thanks bro!
Just found this game again after I backed it nearly two years ago. A ton more fun now with all the additions.

You came to the wrong neighborhood motherfucker
I really like the funk and mystique of the game ... Just from the ingame pictures alone!

fucking merge
First of all, a compound bow works wonders on bandits and raiders. It usually takes an arrow or two to convince them to surrender themselves, and the compound bow still works at convincing the raider long after they've gone into shock and are unconscious! ... and looted!

But seriously, suddenly there was dead bodies all over the places, bandits and raiders left and right, weapons just laying about, and my current camp stash now looks like this.
