About the Game

Early Access

This is an early access version of my game Ruins, and is my first game ever. I have been working on this project for 8+ years now, and would like to get player feedback and will continue to post updates frequently as I get more done.

Survival

Survive in a post apocalyptic world where you and everyone else got left behind as demons begin to rise and take over the landscape. Scavenge leftover goods to help you stay alive, find vehicles to move around faster and carry more, and find weapons and ammo to defend yourself with, and try to survive as long as you can.

World

Explore a full open world, no waiting or loading when traversing areas. Player can climb anything and is not limited to ladders or certain objects, most things react to being hit at high speed (Breaking/Simulating physics). Hundreds of locations, dozens of POIs like military checkpoints, campsites and more, with many more being added.

Vehicles

Grab a vehicle to move faster and get more loot across the vast map, vehicles include cars, helicopter and boats. Watch your gas! Vehicles use gas and take damage, so keep an eye on it so you don't get stranded somewhere you don't want to be.

Loot

Find loot to help you survive, from food and medicine, to guns and ammo, things can be found everywhere in random storage, some items are based on player level so the player will find better gear as they level up.

Monsters

The world is dangerous but you can find plenty of guns and ammo around the map to fight off the monsters, or sneak to conserve ammo when needed. More monsters will be added in future updates.

Hunting/Fishing

Grab a gun and some ammo to hunt animals around the map or find a pole to catch fish. Fish spawn in every water source but can move around, so try and find a good fishing spot.

Split-Screen

Explore with a friend on split screen or fight them for what loot they have. Players can have deathmatches around the map while trying to survive the harsh world, race each other, destroy each others vehicles and more. (Currently no tether distance, so player 2 can go anywhere they want to go without being tied to Player 1).
