"I don't want to be here. Still, I have to... there is one mission left for me." The Woodpecker was made in 8 days for the Dec. 2019 - Jan. 2020 Frictional Fan Jam: Winter Modding Event! Major upgrade released for Xmas 2022. I'm a big fan of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. myself. Plus I'm a big fan of Amnesia, Penumbra & especially SOMA. So guess what? I decided to create a short narrative experience keeping in mind: what could happen if the worlds of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and SOMA were linked, in a parallel universe?

Director's Cut 1.2: Russian localization added!

News

Hello stalkers!

The Woodpecker just got updated to 1.2: all fonts were revamped so they scale properly on high resolutions plus are also compatible with new translations. They also look better. 🌐

Menu

As a result, Russian localization was added in-game, special thanks to Aleksei Panov! 🙏

Prologue

Just go to the game settings and select your favourite language, like in original Amnesia!

This build should have been uploaded two days ago (Thursday the 6th) but I had bad phone network with continuous micro-disconnections.

Inventory

Have a good weekend and be safe in the Zone…

Hey stalkers! Hey everyone!

Some of you may know me from the Forbidden Trip Total Conversion: well, forget this World!
The Woodpecker is a lot different...

The concept

This custom story for Amnesia was made in 8 days for the Dec. 2019 - Jan. 2020 Frictional Fan Jam: Winter Modding Event!

The themes were Winter & hibernation.

I'm a big fan of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. myself. Plus I'm a big fan of Amnesia, Penumbra & especially SOMA. So guess what? I decided to create a short narrative experience keeping in mind: what could happen if the worlds of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and SOMA were linked, in a parallel universe?

What's in for you

  • An abandoned complex in the middle of a forbidden Zone is here for you to explore.
  • A goal? Complete your mission. That will be well enough. There is a good reason for you to be here...
  • I tried my best to create a simple yet nice storyline. In the end, you'll be the judge for that!
  • Environments are a big change for an Amnesia mod. Visually it's partly inspired by S.T.A.L.K.E.R. titles.
  • I worked hard and with passion to deliver an original mod to you!

Imminent release

It is scheduled for the upcoming weekend, when the Frictional Fan Jam ends.
