Steam Open World Survival Crafting Fest 0.9 Update: Check Out What’s New

If you haven’t read our previous posts, it covers most of the new additions and upcoming features. You may still read the last one here. But here’s a quick list:

  • Improved Puzzle-like Inventory (stacks/sorting/fitting/compartments/ equipment slots)
  • improved Crafting (quality of life/accessibility/convenience/filters/sorting)
  • Player character fully reworked (movement/interactions/animations)
  • Weapons fully reworked (handling/animations/sounds)
  • Larger map, with new locations and hidden secrets
  • New enemy AI flora and new AI monsters like infected scientists in hazmat suits
  • Cooking improved and expanded (more recipes/locations)
  • Terminals added (in-universe interactable PCs serving various functions)
  • Workbenches (Crafting Stations) improved and added in more locations
  • Simplified loadout (primary, secondary, consumable, melee, throwable)
  • New organic narrative story progression
  • Major performance improvements and optimizations, better visuals, higher frame rate


Future features include:

  • New weapon added: Sniper Rifle
  • Weapon Attachment & Improvement System added
  • Even more locations, tools & secrets

Due to their protective hazmat suits, these particular type of infected have a certain resistance to light, meaning that the player will never truly be safe, day or night, the danger is always present.

Their movement may be unpredictable and erratic, so always stay on guard. If ammo is short, using the trusty hatchet is always an option, but one needs to be cautious not to take on more than one can handle.

Make sure you always stock up on supplies, food, hydration, first aid or band aids. Organize them in your new inventory or quip them in your loadout. Keep your armaments ready for any situation. Sometimes keeping a safe distance is your best strategy, but other times engaging is your only option.

And if you want to support our development even further, and a chance to get to play the full experience early, and get a Steam key (once the game is available here) at a better price, don’t forget we have the game available on our IndieGala store page.
