POSTWORLD Windows game

POSTWORLD is the game about exploration and survival in procedurally generated postapocalyptic world.

Game Pitch

You play as a victim of experiments performed by a TNC. Hero has defective combat AI in his head, and so the mysterious corporation’s agents follow his track.

In order to survive you will have to cooperate with 4 factions (Cultists, Railwaymen, Slavers and Military) on the post-apocalyptic Russian landscape. You may either join one of the factions and help it to destroy the others, or swim against the stream and become the Wasteland King!

Back Story

January 10, 2082. Rockets soared heavenward. Since they targeted strategic facilities, global industrial and energy infrastructures were mostly demolished. Although tens of millions died on the very first day, this was nothing but a warm-up before the true reaping started: Pestilence and Famine had always been the most effective among the apocalyptic horsemen.

Mankind saw its laws fall down like a house of cards, as the most ancient one was restored: «Kill or be killed. Eat or be eaten».

Year 2120. Endless fights for vital resources finally resulted in some sort of balancing state. However, this balance tended to escalate into quarrels of various factions, hectically seeking to split everything of at least some value…

Feature List

1. Hardcore. Meet permadeath, merciless enemies and the radioactive wasteland that doesn’t forget mistakes.
2. Procedural generation. Inexhaustible variety of levels, including open spaces, vestiges of prewar communications and a lot more. Dozens of quest types.
3. Combat mechanics, combining use of shields with firearms and melee weapons.
4. Level up: sometimes an unremarkable skill completely changes the combat tactics.
5. Factions interact on the global map, through which the player travels as well.
6. Support any of the 4 factions (Cultists, Railwaymen, Slavers and Military) or choose your own way.
7. Tactical AI: defeating enemies isn’t always as simple as it might seem. Each faction has its own ways to cooperate in combat, according to its cultural specifics and resources at its disposal.
8. Pseudorealistic inventory use during combat: you can only use what’s in your hands, behind your back or in your tactical vest (if you have one).
9. Advanced inventory management: out of storage space? – there’s always a way to repack the items.
10. The equipment you find is not always the best. Craft is your friend.
11. United we stand, divided we fall: pick a team of unique characters and turn the tide of events.

TL.DR: you may think of our game as third person procedural wasteland crawler with addition of global map (aka fallout 1-2) and manually crafted levels.
