The fight for survival is on! OverDose is a class, team & objective based multiplayer game set on a post-apocalyptic Earth. With gameplay in the tradition of classic games such as Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Enemy Territory, melded with up to date gameplay mechanics and movement, OverDose is a unique blend of online action, team play and of course, lots of gore. Using id tech 2 as a base, OverDose features updated engine features like full real time lighting and shadow mapping, physically based rendering, particle and physics simulations and more. Plus, in classic id Software tradition, our engine and game are fully moddable and scriptable, meaning even amateur mod makers can bring their own creations to life with ease. This isn't war... It's an all out apocalypse!

Nice, I will for sure donate for this. But just a small thing to mention: Usually projects which try to get donations make it like "pre-pre-ordering" the game. Mean: You get it for the final price or a bit cheaper. I think most people who will see this might be like "yooo I want this game I will donate for this to get it" and then like "yooo 100? that is to much to donate and if i donate I want the game".
I still will donate but have to do it with not that much money. But also: I think 10 $ for credits will make a long credits-list. Just my 2 cents but just keep this in mind.

You get the game for $100. We see it as "You paid that much tp help the development, why shouldn't you get the game for free on release as well?"

As for the credits list, that may be true but its only fair :p

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!! - 26th February 2012

A lot of people have been talking with me with regards to the rewards and how I could change them up a bit. Thanks to their help and feedback, we have decided that anybody who donates $40 or more WILL get a copy of the game on release. Remember, the game isn't priced yet, but it won't be full priced as its not a huge tripple A title. This means that anybody who has already donated will of course get this perk as well.

Keep in mind all perks are stackable! Thanks again!

Ok, realistically, if you want to get a lot of donations, you should have a free steam code on release be like $10-25, depending on how much you think the game will be on release. Credits list should be at least 30$ in my opinion, but that is my opinion. The game should definitely be cheaper though.

I just made some MASSIVE changes to the pricing. You should check it out:



• $1+ - Every little helps, and will secure you a place on our credits screen for all the world to see!

• $15+ - Donating $15 will secure you a copy of the game on release.

• $45+ - Donating $45 or more will net you access to the OverDose Alpha/Beta (when available) as well as access to the soundtrack complete with updates if/when they become available! Soundtrack written and recorded by Luciano Giacomozzi & M. Baran Yasar.

• $150+ - The big one... Not only do you get all of the above, but you will also have the chance to see yourself in the game as a player selectable head... and then watch as some no good dirty mutant blows it clean off. Good times...


NOTE: To any female donators, we ARE going to be adding female player classes. At this time, only male player classes are in progress as we feel it was important to get one full set of classes available for the release rather than a mixed bag.

Description

OverDose is a huge game... HUGE. And we do it all for nothing more than a few smiles and maybe abag of of chips. But one thing we can't do right now is pay others to help us. Paying others allows a higher quality of work at a much faster rate but also, most important of all, guarantees completion. We have so many people start work then just give up half way in that it just sets us back.

Remember that every donation you make, no matter how small, goes into the funding of new team members for help. If you want to see OverDose release before the actual apocalypse, help us! Theres lots of perks we offer to those that donate! See our IndieGoGo page for more details: Indiegogo.com

Or just head right to PayPal and donate there instead! Paypal.com
