Stranded – Open World Zombie Survival Mission

An event occurred. It’s origin unknown. Some say it’s just nature restoring the balance. Some say it’s a virus from outer space. Some say it’s Judgement. Nobody truly knows. What we do know is that one day the dead started to rise. Everyone who dies rises again to attack the living and create more walking corpses. Countries that had the infrastructure managed to withstand the event whereas countries torn by civil war, famine and scarcity were not so lucky. Altis was not so lucky. You are a drifter. A faceless roaming survivor of the aftermath earning a meagre living scavenging and selling loot. You are nothing. A nobody and when you die you become another nobody. Over and over.

Explore and pillage the island nation of Altis where the further you go the harder it gets. Battle across high risk/high reward loot zones where the better the gear the more dangerous the foe but don’t stay out too long. You don’t want to be outside a safe zone when night falls. Take on odd jobs. Kill zombies and bandits for money. Build up your cash to buy better gear to take on harder loot zones but beware, If you die you lose it all.

______________________Future ______________________

Whilst this project is functionally completed there is more I would have liked to do with it however due to time constraints / inexperience I’ve had to cut features out. Over time I would like to add things like a sort of bounty system / reputation system plus expand and add more variety to what’s in this scenario.

I can’t make any promises, beyond bug fixing support, that I’ll continue to add to this project though.
