Until We Die is a base defense strategy game. Your base is the subway station, it's underground part. You'll have to defend it against all sorts of things, brought in by meteorites.
Command wards to gather supplies and turn an abandoned station into an impregnable fortress-colony capable of resisting any threat.
To win, you have to survive for roughly 30 game days, fending off a series of attacks on your base -- small packs of creatures at first, but by the end you'll be up against a sweeping horde of mutants. The game will end in defeat if our hero Ivan dies during the run; or if the power generator (the heart of the base) is destroyed.
Until We Die is not a conventional strategy game. Here you have to run around as Ivan and dispense ass-kicking valuable orders to your subjects. There's no advanced AI. Humans are reluctant to take the initiative, and those lazy bastards don't want to do anything on their own.
And there's a lot to do: building fortifications, researching technology to build even stronger fortifications and defend more effectively, sending expeditions to the surface, attacking mutant lairs to secure new land for farms and tents, gathering supplies from crates, and extracting food from mushrooms and anything else that looks edible... wasn't there a fat rat running down the tracks?
There will be one scenario and a playable character on the release. We will support the game for at least one year and plan to add new scenarios with different rules and playable characters.
While we don't have particular dates when big updates will come - they will be free for everyone who purchased the game. We don't plan any DLC or something like that. You pay once and get everything we make. Plain and simple. Also, you can expect the Nintendo Switch version and support of Linux and Mac versions at some point in time.
A pre-release demo is available to download via the game's store page.
