OPEN BETA v-0.8.9: download right now from here or from our indieDB download page.
EFFING DEAD - The Broken Path is a survival action game, completely in 3D, with real-time light and shadows, glows and water physics.
We love the genre and try to bring back the same feelings and joy we discover while we played with RE4. But, also, we try to improve some aspect of the game mechanics and give it our special touch.
What's the game about
The game take place on a far far planet. A company specialized in finding new water sources send a ship of specialized clones to research new resurgences. They find a planet full of water and build a station for taking and storage the water.
But the connection with the planet station is lost by weeks, only one defence clone seems to be functional and operative. It's up to the player to take control of him and check what's going on.
The objective is to find out what's happen to the station, clean any kind of hostilities and activate the main signal with earth.
The defence clone is full operative and ready to take action and fix any kind of problem, but the player need to take care of the connection with him: damage disturb and alter the camera signal. Plus you need to worry about some places that have connections shields which must be removed or deactivated.
The clone has also a special ability when he aims objects: he can interact with station terminals, activate machines and take control of different type of sensors. The player will use the aim ability to explore and restore the full functionality of the water station.
He also can perform SPECIAL MOVES and FINISH THE ENEMIES with the V-Blade on his arm and do BARREL ROOLS to avoid enemies grabs.

This Game is nice actually Nice Work!
Tks! Come back soon, the beta is coming so you can try it and tell us your point of view on the gameplay ;)
Looks really interesting!
Tks Riccardo! Nice as usual ^_^
This looks like it has potential, it really does, but it is -really- rough based on the trailer and screenshots. Also, there looks to be a lack of variety in enemies and weapons, which is a little disheartening, but still a valiant effort. Hopefully things get polished and expanded upon further as the game progresses.
Tks you! ^_^ We think too that it really has potentials ;) and we also know that there is more to do. But we are really happy with what the engine can do and the gameplay at this point and are really excited that the first beta will be released soon so FINALLY people can play it and we will find out if it's really that good.
The trailer is for introduce the game and from the beta and some aspects aren't visible, of course.
Some evns from the video are for test (and will not be in the "normal mode" of the game) but show "things" and some are not finished.
Can I ask you to tell me which screenshot do you think is not good (and why)? Or maybe which video env/location you really don't like?
Some guys comment us that it's more a color problem and others that the realtime light/shadows from the engine can't be seen that much in the video.
And there aren't all the enemies, of curse, and even you can't see the different behavior - for example one type do barrel rolls to avoid your attack.
Can you be more specific with the lack of weapons? Would would you like to see? ;)
Tks again for your positive feedback and sorry for all my question! :)
