The demo is out BEWARE demo

I'm very impresed with this indie game i discovered today and the premise of driving from A to B while you are being chasing by the AI trying to destroy you. The physics of the car and the graphics/ambience looks really awesome to me.

Description of the game by the autor:

I will be writing a more detailed post about this. Very simply put, it's about driving from A to B while avoiding getting killed and learning what happened to the game's world and where all of it's inhabitants went. Generally speaking, as of today, there is no master plan graved in stone. I'm quite new to game development and find the non-linearity to be very exciting (and still unexplored territory IMHO). I really enjoy creating universes which unfold during the creation process, sometimes leading to completely unforeseen directions.

Very simply put, the goal is to drive from A to B, with various obstacles on the way. The goons, the terrain. I know, I'm still being kind of purposefully vague atm.

The roads are authored although I do think about procedural generation for some special scenarios.

About VR mode:

We're thinking about VR support - let's hope the technology prevails during the coming years. Also, changing the way the rear-view mirrors behave could help.

The game and its story is based on this short film from the developer:


He said he's been working on the driving AI for years; multiple vehicles can work together like one blocking and another attempting a PIT

Thanks mods for the title change!

That looks immensely creepy. VR would be really intense.

 

[Neptonic]

jfc that looks amazing

 

[blame space]

that looks so cool

 

[Zarill]

The fps view is giving me the creeps holy moly. Definitely gonna follow that

 

[TheGreatDirector]

Oh that's fucking creepy.

 

[gookie_grisp]

So it's like if there was a game based on the movie Duel? Pretty neat concept

 

[LelouchZero]

Wow this looks cool!

 

[CopperPuppy]

This looks really good.

 

[FreezerGeezer]

The first person view looks great, very atmospheric.

Creepy at the end when they manage to stop you and jump the car.

 

[Garmonbozia]

Really like the vibe of this. Pretty creepy.

 

[bounchfx]

ok this looks dope

 

[Anung]

I love the look and vibe of this.

They should rename it Surdrival!

 

[family_guy]

So it's somewhat similar to Driver's pursuit mode on PS1 where the cops do their best to wreck you.

 

[supernormal]

Super cool concept. Reminds of Twisted Metal Black.

 

[etta]

Is that a Lada, fuck ya

 

[Oneself]

Driver meets Spielberg's The Duel and something along the lines of Outlast.

I need this in my life.

 

[Disxo]

A short but sweet game of 20 to 40 minutes of this seems to be ideal for the plans the dev has.

 

[TissueBox]

Post-apocalyptic Driver game? I'm in.

That list of .gifs is frankly glorious.

 

[Radnom]

This looks fantastic. I really hope there are periods of calm with nothing chasing the player to really make the chase sequences intense. Reminds me a bit of Deadly Premonition, of all things, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

 

[Mista Koo]

First person view looks great, that human model though...

 

[Vindicator]

Nice eastern european vibe.

 

[panama chief]

Rubber band AI is gonna be a motherfucker. Looks good tho.

 

[Spades]

This looks fantastic!

 

[Rymuth]

Driver meets Spielberg's The Duel and something along the lines of Outlast.

I need this in my life.

Exactly what I was reminded of

 

[Aztechnology]

That's really impressive.

 

[One Foul Note]

Very atmospheric screenshots. Although the final game would be wise to keep the enemies more obscured or made more sinister looking then in some of the screen and gifs. It takes out of the atmosphere a little when you see all the folks chasing you are potatoes on legs. Although I imagine it would still be very terrifying in VR.

 

[JetSetRadio]

Yep, I need this.

 

[Tau]

Wow this game looks impressive graphically and the concept is interesting!

 

[nkarafo]

Looks pretty awesome.

The cars don't seem to cast shadows though after being lit with the headlights. They should add this IMO.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Looks great. Question is if they can make a "real" game out of it (and how long it's going to take them).

 

[rjc571]

Really cool concept.

 

[More_Badass]

Been following this game for a few weeks. Love the atmosphere so much

The game and its story is based on this short film from the developer:

[c0Zm1c]

I love the concept.

 

[brandonh83]

Color me intrigued. Yooo.

 

[GoldandBlue]

A bit goofy in third person, looks fucking great in first person though.

 

[bishoptl]

I want to play this...but I don't want to play this, you get my drift. Amazing atmosphere.

 

[YuShtink]

Whoa so in on this.

 

[brandonh83]

you get my drift.

Damn it

This sounds awesome.

 

[MomoPufflet]

This sounds like a great VR game. Devs are right to consider it.

 

[kai3345]

Oh man, this looks great! Is it playable somehow?

 

[Fried Food]

REally like the look of this

 

[Piichan]

Playing this in VR must be scary as shit. Those weird baddies trying to open your car door D:

 

[SJRB]

Amazing idea.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Needs a giant truck.

 

[Rei_Toei]

Damn, what an amazingly simple but clever concept. Love the atmosphere, that game is going to be tense as fuck.

 

[Auto-Reply]

Looks very interesting, hope they make a VR version!

 

[desu]

What engine is the game using?
