Dear survivors,
there's something for all brave adventurers today. As you may have noticed, we've been working on a completely new version of "Deadly Days" for a long time.
We think the latest version (Pre-Alpha) is now playable, many new mechanics are included and filled with content. If you dare, switch to the "alpha" branch in the Steam Client.
We ask you to send us your ideas, suggestions and of course bug reports (in the comments or in Discord (https://discord.gg/4KCf5zt)). The game will have bugs, maybe even many. Also many graphics are still missing or old and the content is of course not complete. But we think that some of you might have some fun anyway!
Oh, one more important point: There is no tutorial yet! Therefore possibly a few hints. Otherwise if you have questions, we are there for you on Discord (https://discord.gg/4KCf5zt).
Here the hints:
- If you are on a mission, return to the base by HOLDING the green "Recall to truck" button on the truck
- You can loot the houses above which a treasure chest is displayed (just click on the front of the house, then a survivor will run there).
- There is a crate on every map, you can loot it by clicking on it (like houses).
- In the base you can see on the left side "Special Powers", which you can find in the game (red beam)
- In the base you can see the slots for your items at the bottom of the screen. These replace and extend the upgrades of the old version. Items can be found in the game (green ray)
- On the right side you can see your survivors. Click on one of them and you can assign new weapons to them if you have found any. But you have to repair the weapons first!
Just to be sure it is heard we'll repeat it: Please be aware it is Pre-Alpha, it will be buggy, it is not complete, but it should be fun!
