Makes other 16 year olds look like pieces of shit, more so than they already are.

Unturned - DayZ-like made by 16 year old is in steam most played right now

Considering Castle Miner Z is still on Steam, which is way more of a Minecraft ripoff than this, I'm gonna say no.
You had your chance and blew it. Life over

The kid is 16 and probably not an artist...
I guess, but still.. I'm just so sick of games that look like Minecraft. There are too many.
Edit: But yeah, props to that guy for getting a game on Steam. Hope his next game won't look the same way though

Played half an hour, liked it. Couldn't connect online, so tried singleplayer. The shooting felt nice, although would wish for headshots and decapitation. Picking up items is not great, the hitbox is too small so you have to be right next to the item. Hardcore difficulty is fine. Takes 7 punches for a zombie to go down. Laughed when I saw a lumberjack zombie near some big trees. Those crawlers are tough to attack from up top, can't attack when on their level.
I love the clouds looking like legos, gives it a surreal cubist vibe. Day/night cycle is rad.

Ah, thanks.
Well on the plus side it's only the clouds and characters that look Minecraft like.I guess, but still.. I'm just so sick of games that look like Minecraft. There are too many.

Really really enjoying it. Seems a great alternative to paying for Day Z haha. Really tough it's been a while since I played a game like this so I'm ever so slowly getting back into the swing of things. Seems to be a decent amount of depth too.
wanna trade ages? would love to go back to my 20s somethings.
32 is not so bad.... you want it? It comes with problem solving skills.
Looks really promising, even the system requirements are endearing.
I was gonna post this, so good.
Looks interesting enough, downloading it now.

This look pretty cool. Minecraft+DayZ sounds like a winner. Gonna check this out
Pretty much lets you use Gold servers.
-Golden name in chat and player list.
-Extra skin colors, hair and faces.
-Access to special Golden servers.
-Suit and shades on Golden servers.
-Extra loot drops on Golden servers.
-Double experience on Golden servers.
-Enhanced sleek darker user interface.
So no a Golden player cant go into a Normal server and use these.

Bought gold and played another couple of hours tonight.
He added a new SMG and some bug fixes overnight and is working on steam server stuff now. That's most important IMO since multiplayer at the moment is awful
Still - I can only see this getting better and better. Hell I only just found my first axe and started gathering wood!

This kid locked a UI behind a paywall? Is it just a UI skin or actually a different interface?
We still haven't gotten that perfect open world Zombie game.

Will never happen.
As far as multiplayer experiences go, I'm optimistic about H1Z1. (Not saying perfect, of course.) Planetside 2 has been my primary game for a couple of years now, satisfying all my shooter and large-scale MMO needs. I can interact with groups of people both friendly and opposing in ways I can't do in any other FPS.
The way the devs communicate with the fanbase is definitely something other studios can learn from.
It's just a darker skin of the same existing UI. No different from what Valve does with charging for DOTA2 skins.
Im not joking when I say all it does is turn the UI grey, that is all lol
I mostly just see the $5 as a donation thing since you really don't need to have it at all.

Would anyone like to play? I'm considering hosting, but might be better if someone with better internet / PC host a game

16 and has a finished game?

Gold
Free
Buying gold is more about supporting a kid who was smart enough not to charge money just to cash in on a games hype.
Also I want this game to be harder. We built an awesome base with Ladders and Flood lights, hidden doors, barbed wire. The whole nine yards. But once you have stuff the zombies stop being a threat. But food and water become the issue. And thats pretty good but a game like this should have a higher zombie spawn rate or something. Maybe some flying monsters or something just to mix it up. AND FOR THE LOVE OF DOGE I NEED SAVING FIXED.
Iv played this for 11 hours now
Open a port or use one thats open and click host. Give your friend your IP. Google Whats my ip to find out what it is. Done
Why? I'm not seeing any stolen assets.
Yeah basically if you haven't done anything cool like that by 20 you've seriously fucked up your life beyond repair.

Definitely going to give this a go and will buy Gold if I like what I see. Can't wait!

I can definitely see this getting big with the Let's Players on youtube.
Perhaps it's just me feeling like a waste of skin, but this is all really one 16 year old's work?
I'm not even considering the game itself. The name "Unturned" for a zombie survival horror game is up there with "The Last of Us" in terms of poignancy. That seems like too slick a title for any of the 16 year old's I've ever met to come up with.

I agree that the work itself is amazing for someone on their own regardless of age, although personally I think "Unturned" is a little gag-worthy as a title.
Its all over twitch right now

Where's a GAF server? sobsobsob
Gotta wait till someone hacks it to allow more than 12 people per server. Wink wink nudge nudge
