A downloadable game for Windows

Download NowName your own price

Descend into the depths of the Target Planet's cave network to retrieve a critical piece of cargo, encountering many horrifying obstacles and problems on the way, to your character's dismay. Survival chances are near 0%—expect to die a lot along the way.

Caution and patience are greatly rewarded in the depths. Any mistake can spiral into an ugly, permanent death.

Play the tutorial before starting a run. It's good to understand some of the core mechanics before descending.

Translations are available! Language files are placed in the game's Data/Lang directory. The repo with them is located here. Note: Most translations aside from EN are unfinished, and not made by me.

NOTE: This is a demo of a prototype version - expect a lot of bugs and other issues. The working name is Scav Prototype, but the final game is planned to be named Casualties: Unknown.

This game contains scenes of violence, gore and depictions of depression and self harm.

(New content!) Updated Version - https://elkimdeer.itch.io/

is it playable on chromebook?

i know i have a good game taste.

(2 edits) (+1)

I love nearly every feature introduced in the latest update, but the barotrauma view in unchipped mode. It might just be me but, the view in unchipped mode is a bit much. To the point that it might as well be unplayable in layers 4 and 5. I only see this working as a difficulty mutator (akin to the skulls from halo), a difficulty add-on option, or something like that.

I do still think the barotrauma view is neat in idea though.



also the memory leaks are pretty bad after a few hours.

unchipped needs some work definitely. the field of view even hides dialogue. 

(+5)

better than ubisoft damage system

(+1)(-1)

Has anyone else encountered this error? When I first launched the program "on the school computer," I saw something like a field of view. I was very, very surprised, because I hadn't updated the file on the flash drive—the new version installed immediately after launch. After rebooting, it disappeared.

The addition of field of view terrifies me...

(+5)(-1)

I'll send a photo as soon as I have a chance

I will only play in chipless mode

I'm stupid, I probably accidentally turned on the no-chip mode.

(+4)

very immersive, my character gets a bad back from sleeping on gravel, and I get a bad back from playing while lying on a fake wood vinyl flooring. suffering is fun.

(+6)(-1)

- Start first run

- Start wandering around

- find some random stuff

- get dirty and start heading to a nearby pod

- step on a god damn land mine

- "okay that hurt, let me go and try to take a shower"

- break window to get into pod

- step on glass and get it in both feet

- no medical supplies

- uh oh

- slowly die the slowest and most painful death imaginable


10/10 would put a poor creature through unimaginable pain again

I GOT THIS 

FAHH- *sonar gun sound*

I also made a drawing  😁 it's nothing bleak trust 

(+1)

By the way, you draw very well.

PLEASE I NEED A PORT 

I've already tried a million times to emulate it but 4 FPS ain't doing it I can't do anything unless I get a Snapdragon phone but I don't got the funds but I don't think a actual port Will exist ever. On another note thanks that one person who told me to emulate it

(5 edits)

Купите подержанный паровой погрузчик , он очень дешевый. "У меня та же проблема, и вот мое решение."

I think it will be cheaper than some phones, and you will be able to run not only this game, but any other, including pirated ones.

And if you don't have money, ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ watch videos on YouTube.

I have a great idea!! Start a fundraiser to play this game. "Keep in mind that some players don't have any dollars in their accounts."

I like to think the elder thornsback as pandemonium, cuz it's like: "EXPERIMENT AT 1.280 METERS" WHAT

"EXPERIMENT AT 1.280 METERS" WHAT

"EXPERIMENT AT 1.281 METERS"  *HORRIFIED moddle appears*

(+18)


i was listening to static a fuck ton when i overheard that this game got an update

so i may or may not have done this for shits and giggles
(+7)

I am impressed, This painting is really good.

(+2)

got bored and decided to try this after seeing people talk about it on twitter a little
first run i get impaled by some fuckass spike thing not long after starting and die after like 10 minutes of struggling to stay alive
cool! i want more

i just need find someone to play with ( have a mod allowing multiplayer ), this game is perfect in Beta + Demo version, how?

what mod did you use for multiplayer

(+2)

Probably this one: https://github.com/Krokosha666/cas-unk-krokosha-multiplayer-coop

do you also have the mod?

(+1)

No, I don’t really like playing this game in Multiplayer.

(+7)

This game is kinda hardcore, realistic, depressing yet additive. After hours of diving into it, I think I kinda got the hang of it, now my expie wont suffer( that much) during descending and I'm proud of it, these critters need more love

(+5)

so my first run wen exactly like this so SPOILERS!!!! (i guess??)


>gets out of capsule

>"bright plant..."

>manages to fall down and smash in the rocks

>"this is bad but I can still make it out alive.jpg"

>a trap makes me blow 3 times in a row

>internal bleedind, concussions, broken bones, everything bleeding

>cardiac arrest, dies

>somehow revives but im basically dead

>manages to fall even more, stays abou 7 minutes extremely confused, in deep pain and somehow I lose both of my forearms

>after extreme suffering and passing out of pain multiple times for a couple minutes, finally sweet death arrives


now im traumatized, amazed and want to play more :D 

(+1)

i was lucky enough to see traps trigger on other things in my first run, wish i could go in completely blind again :)

(+2)

we all went through this

Sooner or later two things will happen: either you will become soulless (that's the best thing that can happen), or you will break down and become depressed, and as we all know, -70 = death.

(+25)(-1)

Меня эта игра затянула буквально на часов 8. Я прямо ощущала на себе эту депрессивную обстановку и переживала за персонажа больше, чем за себя XD Я давно хотела поиграть в эту игру, и вот чудо свершилось! Еще я бы хотела поделиться своим артом :)

(+3)

крутой арт

Yo that's sick! Where can we find ya if ya have socials, friend!

(1 edit) (+1)

The game is depressing. Like, really. A lot. Orsoniks wasn't joking when he said that.

Also, will you release the rest of the soundtracks and drones somewhere? I'm already waiting for the "What have I done".

Can someone teach me how to play this game, please?

i can try!! i am SO desperate to talk about this game, i beg of you

(-2)

Not sure if the dev(s?) are aware of this but the game leaks memory like crazy, RAM usage rises to 4-5 gigabytes within an hour

(+1)(-8)

He knows the value of RAM. I sympathize with you that you don't have enough of it.

I don't have a computer. I don't know the value of RAM.((((

It's a known problem, yes. From what I could tell, they're looking into it, but it's a difficult problem to troubleshoot by the looks of it.

how the fuck do i get the old playtest4 casualties unknow, i accidentaly corrupted it while trying to get multiplayer

(+2)

i could give you a copy of the v4 playtest

gimme

also i dont have discord, and cant use it in general, so be aware of that

(+1)(-1)

try this https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sW9nV0r3yL8ca75JlQDt6Fnfy9a6N4UR/view?usp=drive..

i dont know of anything else other than google drive for sending files

You failed to properly share the file. Access Denied.

i got discord

(-2)

Write where to send it

discord: bezdarr.

(+10)

We need a real life expie plushie!

(+3)

Agreed! :D

(+3)

Shut up and take my money!

(+1)

very real yes

(+2)

And also can add me too?

(-1)

Hello just wondering if you can make the game playable on joiplay. I really want to know.

Hi, is the story complete in the pretest or should I wait ?

(1 edit)

The game doesn't have a implemented story yet (as of ScavDemoV5PreTesting5)

Aw, too bad! I'll wait for it to have a story then.

(+5)

Developer added happy eyes when happy, this is so cute!

When I saw this for the first time, I didn't understand it at first, but then I took off my New Year's hat and understood everything.

(1 edit)

Bug: In tutorial when i tried to threaten Dune, he's just disappered, damaged me once.

Edit: He's haven't disappered, he's teleported into 0 0 position

(+6)

Dear community members, I have a suggestion for you. Would anyone like to make a traveler's notebook for this game, like the one in Gravity Falls? Anyone with enough free time and a talent for drawing (I tried, but it didn't work out)

(1 edit) (+1)

sure but what should it be about

(+6)

I can imagine it being a series of tips and advice to survive in the game, like how to get as well equipped as possible in the start of new runs for example. Another idea is combining the tips and advice with a short story about the writer's descent into the cave network, something similar to the notes you can find in the drop capsules.

Personally, i might test a little bit with the last idea and see how it works, it seems quite simple to do.

(1 edit) (-1)

Putting together everything that happened (Wikipedia hand drawn)

(+1)

Btw, did you got hacked or why do you have "that" pfp?

yes

(2 edits) (+3)

is the game meant to spawn like this? 
the trader or chest also was cancelled out by the dropship

this is the base

This updated page makes me wonder how long it'll take until someone uploads image assets to steamgriddb, as the game now has a proper title. Love the updated page btw.

i absolutely love the new theme for the page!

(1 edit) (+1)

Oh yeah, has anyone seen the new survivor type? I've seen a lot of them, but I still can't trade with anyone. Is anyone else having the same problem? I understand the tribute is probably paid in blood. Pressing the button does nothing, but when I return to the merchant, trade points magically appear, which can't be used to buy anything.

Should I delete the save folder to fix everything?

(1 edit) (+1)(-1)

Here's what I think about the new update (@##&&g $$##@h $&$#@@e &#j ##@$#@) but overall I like it

(+2)

This game just got updated. There is a way to move the save files from the pretesting4 to 5?.

(+1)

I think if you copy and paste the save file into the new folders save file location it could work, but I'm not sure were the files are stored

they are in the same place

(+2)

aw, got my hopes up for an update. oh well, i can wait :)

(+2)

Boy do I have news for you

(+2)

Whats new with the update?

(+3)

Just the background updated, Yeah...

That's more like it, And i can't see my pattern character face...

ah, ok

(4 edits) (+2)(-1)

Updated is time come now.

Alright i updated my changing game system file.

The true information is.

https://github.com/Paili-16/Scav-Prototype-V5-System-file-changed-

Whatever this is your decide and free to take.

And also this is my test.

(+2)(-2)

creator of this game, i think you should upload this game to steam because I think this game is quality and quality games should be on quality sites like steam 

(+3)

itch is a quality site man it doesnt rob you like some others

(+2)

I'm 100% sure that it will end up on steam once it's done

you have to pay $100 to get a game on Steam btw

it's just a deposit, they give it back to you after you make a certain amount of sales

oh, okay

still, it's a heavy price upfront

Shut up and take my money!
