Hi!!! just wanted to say a few words about new water mechanic, it is REALLY unlogical sometimes, one small title of water can wash you away or slow you down af. Game is really cool tho, especially those effects and music, i REALLY love it SO MUCH)))
My Experiment became depressed , then got impaled by a huge spike and got sent into the air by some mine.I ended up with Fractured bones, dislocated joints, Dislocated jaw, and Severe neurophysiological deterioration in a pit with nothing on me.I then got Respiratory arrest,Cardiac arrest and died.
I really should’ve read the comments before trying this game. I was in a bad mood and decided to download it, thinking it might help me distract myself from real life for a while. I launched it, stepped on a push mine, and the experiment got a bunch of injuries. While he was groaning in agony, I was desperately trying to figure out how to heal him — eventually I panicked and just ended the run so I wouldn’t have to watch him suffer.
Then I tried to convince myself it’s just a game, just pixels on a screen. I did around eight more runs, and when I finally reached level 2 for the first time, I pressed “Save and Quit.”
Since then, I’ve been walking around all day feeling like I could cry at any moment. I still can’t get those injuries and deaths out of my head — it feels like I witnessed real violence, not just played a game.
The game is amazing in terms of depth and mechanics, but also terrifyingly brutal — something not everyone can handle. I was also deeply impressed by how alive and interactive the character feels: how he sits and waits, shakes water off his fur, whines and barks when he’s sad or in pain, hacks with his claws, and plays the healing mini-game.
I’d love to see a similar project one day with less cruelty but the same level of immersion and emotional connection to the character (though I’m not sure that’s even possible, since the fight for the experiment’s life adds so much to the experience). Still, I just can’t keep watching him suffer and die in agony anymore.
This game truly deserves attention and recognition — as does its creator. As soon as I find a way to support the project financially from Russia, I definitely will, and I’ll 100% buy it once it’s available on a store like Steam.
Sorry if some of my words sound strange or don’t make perfect sense — my English isn’t great, but I did my best to express what I felt.
I just made a comment about injecting my expie with an energy drink a few days prior to yours, and it did nothing. This a new update or a specific interaction with ketchup?
after four runs and only getting to layer 3 (just how far down CAN you go?)
anyways, I'm not a fan of equipment decay (especially storage containers and backpacks). maybe this could be a setting? or a durability system for such equipment, rather than the simple time based decay.
also, the lighting is... off. bright lights are too bright, and some visual effects are annoying.
infection seems too harsh, i cant seem to ever fix it. (skill issue likely)
i have mine docked with a keyboard and mouse so yea the only problem was that the game has no native linux compatibility so i just used proton and it worked seemingly
please make it possible to use the showers in life pods if a survivor is in the way, it has cost me 2 runs so far. they just block the button and cant clean/disinfect myself bodywide if they are in the way.
its hard and could use more difficulty settings but besides that i love the lore and it could even bypass project zomboid when it comes to mechanics, good work
NEW PLAYERS DO NOT READ THIS, I DUNNO HOW TO MAKE SPOILER TEXT
sir developer, fix a really dumb bug caused by who knows what
I almost completed the game( well the 4th level atleast, dunno if thats the end) i was at 1200 meters but all of a sudden i started getting thrown into the air so high(around 100 meters) i broke all my limbs and drowned in oil, i wasnt ragdolled or anything, just got thrown up while standing, no jumpy plates around either,that my best run in the 22 hours i have spent in the game, i even got resurrected, then dying in such an unfair and dumb way felt so bad
the experiment can carry items on their back because of back spines, they can get the item jammed onto it like hooks, making to stay attached via that.
would explain how the bags and all that stay on, could even add it as a limb health bit, connected to the spine , it takes damage when landing on the section, making it unusable when the skin / muscle health is too low due to the area being compromised.. maybe
Amazing game! It's lacking not content nor visual but ability to pause and leave anytime. I think these two things are very important. Hope it'll be added in the future updates
don’t quote me on this, not on my computer right now but use malwarebytes or something if your downloading from non itch.io links or something that isn’t from here or by Orsoniks themselves.
heya, is there plans for modding support/tools in the future? if so, are you doing it post-release or during development in order to not have to change the game-systems too late in development for it to be efficient? sorry if this seems a little annoying though, I dunno if anyone else asked about this so forgive me if you already answered such a question and I just happen to not have seen it yet...
the discord specifically has rules against uploading mod content to it so I'm going to assume there's no current plans for modding, especially since we're so early in development that major systems are still being worked out
no need to be so rude, I did answer that specifically though. mod content is not planned, because the dev does not want people making mods that they have plans to make official content beforehand, as 90% of the time they reveal what they are working on in the discord.
im pretty sure orsoniks said that they doesnt want mods right now so that they dont have to work on mod support while working on the game but that there WILL be mod support when the full game releases but DO NOT quote me on this since i am not very sure
I went in the discord server and Orsoniks doesn't like modding because the game's in early testing and it feels like the works being done for them. Modding support will likely be a thing when the game's finished.
I was just having a great run, full belly, lots of storage, ready for the warm. I slipped on water hit my head on the floor and got a severe spinal injury.👍
It also works as a faster way to unlock the capsule too.
Although the amount of items might end up making the game easier and boring, especially considering that capsules are quite common to encounter atleast in the first two layers. I tend to avoid typing 2296 due to that same reason, but still an interesting detail to take on account.
>Start a run >Accidentaly step on a jump pad >Little shit dislocates my foot and gives internal bleeding >Try to fix dislocation >Faint 6 times from pain >Finally fixed the dislocation >Step on the same jump pad >Recive brain damage and 2 more dislocations >Die from god knows what 10 dislocations out of 10
I encountered a spider thing, fell while trying to get closer to it. And broke ALL of my limbs, dislocated all limbs, and bled from every orifice. 10/10 I will play again
Speaking of which, today I got my first run over 1k meters without cheating, and god did I have an ungodly amount of luck to get there
The desert was surprisingly easy to get through because there were no landmines in the path I took, and the only actually dangerous trap that spawned was a turret inside of a steel block
Despite this, I took quite a hefty fall, landing on a boost pad making it even worse. I fractured a couple of my bones and had a few dislocations. I still got lucky even here, and only my legs were really damaged. I had a grappling hook to mitigate the pain from jumping, too.
This game is uhh, like really fun. I know it's a demo but I still can't believe it's free
Im like 30% sure someone died doig that and posted it here. And IM GONNA KEEP DRINKING GROUNDWATER. STOMACH ACHE IS TEMPORARY, HEART ATTACK FROM LACK OF WATER IS NOT
it isn't full trickery though, you can clean groundwater via campfire, which you should be using a campfire early anyway because you can make soap for the later levels as easily accessible drop pods are less and less common
I've only played for a few minutes and this already looks awesome. Immediately being overwhelmed with so many status effects, mechanics and crafting recipes reminds me a lot of my first time trying project zomboid. Looks like a very tough dark survival game so far and I'm all for it
Interesting how injecting yourself with non-drugs does absolutely nothing. you're telling me my expie can survive 3000 ML of energydrink being directly injected into their bloodstream????
It'd be cool if injecting liquids that aren't normally injectable amplifies it's effects (except restoring thirst and hunger) at the cost of heavily increased sickness (what do you think's gonna happen if you inject a god damn energy drink into your veins)
It seems the whole discord server is run by rainbow people. If you say even something mildly offensive about them, then they will insta-ban you without a single warning. Even though in there's rules it says that you can get banned IF you "exceed warnings". Nope. They have too much time on there hands and will ban you within one minute with no chance to reply. Careful what you say in there.
Also. They can insult you, but you cannot insult them.
I did say that, and that is what they call themselves isn't it? What should I call em then? Woke people? That sounds even worse but that's what they called themselves like that too before got the boot. They also called themselves "the wokest community" isn't that even worse?! I also did say one thing that isn't explicitly an insult but I will not say it here because this post will be down voted to oblivion. What I'm saying is that they didn't even let me say anything because I posted this comment during my work hours. And as I said before got banned before I got chance to react. Discord admins abused there power and they themselves didn't following there own rules, which is in short "warn before ban".
👍Remember, The demo costs nothing. Enjoy it while its free, but when it gets paid, feel free to leave. Real Developers don't have to bring identity into things. The creator of fallout 1 is gay, but no one cares because he's the freaking fallout creator.
Damn, that's unfortunate. Way too many great media have shit fandoms (Steven Universe, Critical Role, Undertale) that act like that. Still, I'm excited for the future of this game.
this comment is insanely funny so im keeping it up
just for any stray readers, they were rambling about something along the lines of me "supporting the rainbow people by making sawians hermaphrodites", which not only makes zero logical sense but also is a blatant violation of the bigotry rule, which is a zero tolerance rule and results in an instant perma-ban. i need to make this a bot command...
so-called rainbow people, feel free to join our discord server, almost all of the staff is indeed queer in some way and we're a very welcoming community :)

I agree, died to a mine since a single block of water basically stunlocked me as I was panicking due to me flowing down slowly into my demise.
My Experiment became depressed , then got impaled by a huge spike and got sent into the air by some mine.I ended up with Fractured bones, dislocated joints, Dislocated jaw, and Severe neurophysiological deterioration in a pit with nothing on me.I then got Respiratory arrest,Cardiac arrest and died.
10/10 very fun game, would play again

Tip, do not accidently inject the goober with ketchup
I just made a comment about injecting my expie with an energy drink a few days prior to yours, and it did nothing. This a new update or a specific interaction with ketchup?
I used a morphine syringe and tried this on v5pt3 and v5pt4 and nothing happened. . .
i agree but do not use chatgpt next time
Sorry, I just thought he would translate the pun better from Russian
When input setting.,,,.,..,.,,.,. The controls r to much.,,.,..,,.,..,., I need to edit it
You can find the keybinds menu in the bottom right of the main menu, but...
I don't think it's implemented yet. It didn't work when I tried to use it.
hope the future is promising.

infection seems too harsh, i cant seem to ever fix it. (skill issue likely)
Infection is really harsh but still you can heal it using appropriate items you need to used the items regularly rather than spamming it on the wound
you can use glowfruit on your infected wounds
runs well on steam deck
just make sure to use proton experimental
tho idk if that is the most optimal one to use its just the one that worked for me
wait you can play this on steam deck????
i have mine docked with a keyboard and mouse so yea the only problem was that the game has no native linux compatibility so i just used proton and it worked seemingly
Really? I just use Wine.
please make it possible to use the showers in life pods if a survivor is in the way, it has cost me 2 runs so far. they just block the button and cant clean/disinfect myself bodywide if they are in the way.
its hard and could use more difficulty settings but besides that i love the lore and it could even bypass project zomboid when it comes to mechanics, good work

i was playing on the test version btw
Yeah I had the same thing. It was because of the stuck medical box in the blocks
but that was over a really large area, i encountered the same thing a couple minutes before that
the discord link has expired i think, if anyone has a link lmk
can someone please tell me what is game is about
Imagine noita, but with health system from Barotrauma
alr t
ty*
WRONG! RADIATION POISONING
Owo?? Choco??
Wrong! Oil (1527 ml), fentanyl (238 ml)
that was me sorry! had a spiked drink and needed to filter stuff out
NICE :3

the game is cool, with cool mechanics! I'll have to support you after my paycheck!
uhhhh my game stuck on instantiating chunks after i saved it before going to next player pls help im doomed
ну крутая игра жаль что денег нету чтоб задонить на продвижение
OK! idea for a lore thing involving the game
the experiment can carry items on their back because of back spines, they can get the item jammed onto it like hooks, making to stay attached via that.
would explain how the bags and all that stay on, could even add it as a limb health bit, connected to the spine , it takes damage when landing on the section, making it unusable when the skin / muscle health is too low due to the area being compromised.. maybe
I hate geysers, they're not directly dangerous, but rather really annoying.
Amazing game! It's lacking not content nor visual but ability to pause and leave anytime. I think these two things are very important. Hope it'll be added in the future updates
I'm a little lost. How do I fix internal bleeding? It makes me so sad seeing my scavs die slow and painful deaths. :(
You need a procoagulant.
And for hemothroax, a chest drain
idk if anyone had this issue but windows antivirus doesn't like this game for some reason, what could be the reason? I really wanna play the game TwT
P.s. windows 11
you can make the file an exclusion to windows defender so it stops messing up the download/file
usually theres like a 'more' button or smth and once you click it u can press 'run anyway'
Really interested in this amazing project, but I'll have to wait till release probably
don’t quote me on this, not on my computer right now but use malwarebytes or something if your downloading from non itch.io links or something that isn’t from here or by Orsoniks themselves.

dude I'm asking about modding support, not where else to download the game dawg :sob:
also why didn't you just reply to my comment instead of doing this?
there were scam comments above yours they were deleted tho
oh. okay.
btw i see the coment you sent
heya, is there plans for modding support/tools in the future? if so, are you doing it post-release or during development in order to not have to change the game-systems too late in development for it to be efficient? sorry if this seems a little annoying though, I dunno if anyone else asked about this so forgive me if you already answered such a question and I just happen to not have seen it yet...
the discord specifically has rules against uploading mod content to it so I'm going to assume there's no current plans for modding, especially since we're so early in development that major systems are still being worked out
IK, that's why I asked if it was PLANED ! That's the damn keyword. PLANED.
no need to be so rude, I did answer that specifically though. mod content is not planned, because the dev does not want people making mods that they have plans to make official content beforehand, as 90% of the time they reveal what they are working on in the discord.

I was just having a great run, full belly, lots of storage, ready for the warm. I slipped on water hit my head on the floor and got a severe spinal injury.👍
I love this game I have no idea why it's not popular 😭
Just imagine multiplayer here
multiplayer never
unfortunately... Though i understand why (official) multiplayer will never be a thing
type 2296 in capsule minigame, and u'll get lots of free items!
It also works as a faster way to unlock the capsule too.
Although the amount of items might end up making the game easier and boring, especially considering that capsules are quite common to encounter atleast in the first two layers. I tend to avoid typing 2296 due to that same reason, but still an interesting detail to take on account.
huh????? thought this was a shitpost at first but the other reply makes this seem very real
it works it just blows you up though
I literally saw someone fucking die when they accidentally did that. Don't DO THIS UNLESS YOUR RUN SUCKS ASS ALREADY
it instakills now? for me it just deafens and damages your whole body a little bit
yeah, it does... but that was from like... V5 pre-2 or pre-3. I'm not gonna do that in case I die from it immediately!
i dont care what you say, THIS GAME IS PEAK
>Start a run
>Accidentaly step on a jump pad
>Little shit dislocates my foot and gives internal bleeding
>Try to fix dislocation
>Faint 6 times from pain
>Finally fixed the dislocation
>Step on the same jump pad
>Recive brain damage and 2 more dislocations
>Die from god knows what
10 dislocations out of 10
I encountered a spider thing, fell while trying to get closer to it. And broke ALL of my limbs, dislocated all limbs, and bled from every orifice. 10/10 I will play again
my expie is still too happy
why is my expie happier than me you're in a nuclear wasteland
Speaking of which, today I got my first run over 1k meters without cheating, and god did I have an ungodly amount of luck to get there
The desert was surprisingly easy to get through because there were no landmines in the path I took, and the only actually dangerous trap that spawned was a turret inside of a steel block

This game is uhh, like really fun. I know it's a demo but I still can't believe it's free
I love this game, I keep dying and yet I want to keep trying
fun fact: did you know doing anything in this game you will die?
did you know you can clean groundwater? you need to put 1 ml of bleach in a water bottle and it'll turn it from dirty to clean water!
Im like 30% sure someone died doig that and posted it here. And IM GONNA KEEP DRINKING GROUNDWATER. STOMACH ACHE IS TEMPORARY, HEART ATTACK FROM LACK OF WATER IS NOT
damn it i tried to gaslight them 😭 you ruined my trickery
it isn't full trickery though, you can clean groundwater via campfire, which you should be using a campfire early anyway because you can make soap for the later levels as easily accessible drop pods are less and less common
this is what chef scavenger in metropolis sees when i play as Artificer
Rain World referenced
I've only played for a few minutes and this already looks awesome. Immediately being overwhelmed with so many status effects, mechanics and crafting recipes reminds me a lot of my first time trying project zomboid. Looks like a very tough dark survival game so far and I'm all for it
Im confused if this will be eventually sold or stay free.
Also i slipped while running from swarmies and broke my arm on the fall. 👍
does anyone know how to do addxp
addxp 0 500 will give you 500xp in strength.
addxp 1 500 - in resilence
2 500 - in intellegence
why is my guy so happy lmfao 60 happiness for what
Mods, put a bullet in his skull

INJECTING BEER RIGHT INTO MY WRIST
HEY THAT BUMP LOOKS JUST LIKE A CORPSE
OVERDOSE HOW ABOUT YOU DONT
inject ketchup into your arm, get diabeties when you do it while obese, need to eat healthy to not die
It seems the whole discord server is run by rainbow people. If you say even something mildly offensive about them, then they will insta-ban you without a single warning.

you using rainbow people as an insult tells me that this isnt the real reason why 😭
I did say that, and that is what they call themselves isn't it? What should I call em then? Woke people?

Not to mention THEY insulted me.
Discord admins abuse there power!
I still love this game. I adore it I'd say. But if this is it's community, then I'm not so sure...
👍Remember, The demo costs nothing. Enjoy it while its free, but when it gets paid, feel free to leave. Real Developers don't have to bring identity into things. The creator of fallout 1 is gay, but no one cares because he's the freaking fallout creator.
Let gay people talk about what they goddam want you twat. You're nobody's boss.
I have yet to see anyone unironically call themselves a rainbow person
Nobody wants bigoted people around, it's so tiring. So the way it goes, if they suspect that you're part of that crowd, you get banned.
Damn, really? I though about joining in, but now I'll avoid this place by any cost. Thanks for notification!
Damn, that's unfortunate. Way too many great media have shit fandoms (Steven Universe, Critical Role, Undertale) that act like that. Still, I'm excited for the future of this game.
this comment is insanely funny so im keeping it up
just for any stray readers, they were rambling about something along the lines of me "supporting the rainbow people by making sawians hermaphrodites", which not only makes zero logical sense but also is a blatant violation of the bigotry rule, which is a zero tolerance rule and results in an instant perma-ban.
i need to make this a bot command...
so-called rainbow people, feel free to join our discord server, almost all of the staff is indeed queer in some way and we're a very welcoming community :)
Boo-fucking-hoo. Don't join a server to talk shit about the people in it and then act all surprised when you're not allowed there anymore.
