Hey, survivors!
Welcome back to another exciting devlog for Winter Survival. As we continue to shape our frozen wilderness, I’m thrilled to invite you to join me on a jaw-dropping adventure, where I’m gonna be sharing another part of our advanced mechanics series. If you somehow missed the first part, you can still check it out right now by clicking this link. In today’s devlog, I’ll delve into some intricate interactions with the local fauna, highlighting the intelligence and unpredictability of the animals that roam our wintry landscapes. Without further ado, let’s jump straight into the devlog.
Advanced Mechanics ????
Wolf Party ????
One of the most intriguing dynamics in Winter Survival is the emergence of wolf parties. Picture this: as you navigate the snow-covered environment, you may stumble upon a group of wolves feasting on a fresh carcass. These wolf parties add a layer of unpredictability to your survival journey. Now it’s for you to decide, because it’s a high risk but high reward thing – if you have a torch, you can always try to fend them off and take what’s left from the carcass. Whether you’re gonna be successful or not by doing so depends on your survival skills and how well you’re prepared.
Wounded Animal ????
Another awe-inspiring feature that our team has implemented is the wounded animal as we like to call it. Just like in real world, the environment reacts to certain activities that we do on a daily basis. In Winter Survival it's basically the same case.
If you happen to trap and hurt a deer, you have a small window of opportunity to hunt it down and take as much as you can. You never know if there aren't any wolves nearby.
Bear Rampage ????
Surviving the winter isn't just about battling the elements and hunger; it's also about navigating the animal threats, especially the bear. In Winter Survival, we've introduced a heavily impactful mechanic where our dreaded nemesis can inadvertently destroy player-built shelters.
Let me give you an example – let’s assume that you’re going out into the wilderness in search of supplies, crafting materials, or just to explore the surrounding area. By the time you come back you might find that your cozy shelter is partially destroyed. Now the question is – Are you gonna risk your life and stay in the area? Or maybe you decide to leave this place and your belongings behind for a while and come back as soon as you feel like the area is secured? Let me tell ya – I’d make the decision sooner rather than later, because our furry friend might be back in the blink of an eye.
Stay up-to-date ????
As we wrap up this devlog, we're thrilled to showcase the depth and complexity of Winter Survival's game world. The wolf parties, wolf howls, and bear rampages are just a glimpse into the intricate tapestry we're weaving for players. Every playthrough promises a fresh set of challenges and surprises, thanks to the advanced mechanics that make our world truly dynamic and alive.
Before we finish, I’d also like to mention that our friends over at Pyramid Games would like to invite you to check what they’ve been cooking up for their jaw-dropping, set on a Mars survival game - Occupy Mars. The best thing though – the game is currently on sale, so if you’re looking for scientific-oriented survival game, or maybe you’d like to give it to someone special, Occupy Mars will definitely meet your expectations
