Open-World PvPvE Survival Action RPG | PROJECT: SURVIVAL OF RUNT
The utopia governed by the colossal AI 'Lazarus' collapsed overnight. Following an AI signal overload, most of humanity implanted with neural chips lost their free will, mutating into infected zombies that hunt the remaining survivors.
Only you, despised as a 'Runt' for never connecting to the AI, miraculously survived. Will you rebuild hope amidst the chaos, or completely destroy the superficial AI utopia? Your choice will define the ultimate fate of humanity.
⚔️ Dual Battlefield System
1. THE DEADZONE (50-Player High-Risk Session Battlefield)
An independent 40-50 minute server session battlefield where 50 survivors compete for rare resources and core story quests.
Choice of Will: Choose your survival objective upon entry (both choices allow dynamic teaming).
🔵 Order (8,000P): Cooperate with teammates to survive in the Top 4 and secure 8,000P Sanity reward.
🔴 Chaos (24,000P): Outsmart everyone to be the sole #1 survivor and claim the massive 24,000P Sanity reward.
Death & Zombie Resurrect Loop: Dying in the Deadzone deducts 2,000P Sanity. If Sanity drops below 2,000P, you spawn as a Zombie Player. Hunt human survivors to steal 600P Sanity per kill and earn your way back to human life!
2. CONQUEST (Main Survival & Base-Building Battlefield)
A persistent server-wide territorial war and home base for long-term survival.
Unlimited Survival (0 Sanity Cost): Sanity is never consumed in Conquest mode. Build bases, farm resources, and expand your faction freely without limits.
Territorial Capture & Faction Expansion: Utilize Territory Control Units to capture zones, establish outposts, and continuously expand your faction's domain.
Weekly Missions: Complete independent weekly missions to accumulate Sanity, the essential fuel for entering the high-risk Deadzone.
📦 1-Item Extraction & Carryover
Cross-Session Carryover: Upon successful Deadzone extraction, choose exactly 1 core item from your loot to carry over into the next Deadzone session. Experience intense extraction tension as you select the most vital resource for your next expedition.
Conquest Base Link & End-Game Crafting: Carried-over materials can also be retrieved at Conquest base terminals and combined with Conquest resources to craft end-game gear and tier-3 base facilities.
🤖 Hybrid AI & Next-Gen Visual Effects
Hybrid AI & Local TTS Voice Synthesis: On-device local AI and ultra-low latency TTS engine power real-time NPC responses and dynamic voices, while high-performance server API AI handles deep narrative story quests.
Intelligent Zombie AI & Dismemberment: Enemies don't just walk straight—they scale walls, crawl ceilings, and ambush your blind spots. Experience detailed combat dismemberment with dynamic severing of limbs, legs, and heads.
Real-Time Multilingual Chat Translation: Communicate and collaborate seamlessly with survivors worldwide without language barriers.
Modular Building Destruction: Destroy structures module by module to breach enemy fortifications and open new tactical pathways.
"Between Order and Chaos, your decision will dictate the future of humanity."
