About Survive the Nights

Survive the Nights is a unique FPS survival game focusing on teamwork, fortification, creativity and strategy. Secure a structure or roam free, the choice is yours. Survive the Nights focuses on realistic survival, post zombie infestation. The game takes advantage of day and night cycles. Preparing during daylight hours when moving around the world is less risky. Make use of existing structures instead of building them. Play as a team to better your chances to survive each night.

Use the day time hours to roam the island, find loot and prepare for the night to come. Fortify structures, set traps, start fires, get meals and bandages ready. When the night falls, you will not want to venture too far from a secure structure.

The dead are a real threat and will kill an unprepared player quickly.

Zombie behavior is not the same around the clock. You’ll find zombies during the day slower, more docile and lurking in the shadows. They will attack but for the most part need some provoking.

Night zombies on the other hand are far more aggressive. They can see further, they’re faster, more agile and spawn in greater numbers. They will actively hunt the player so always be on the lookout.

Structures are all exciting as there’s no “base building”. You can take control of an already existing structure, fortify and hunker down.

Every door can be padlocked
Plank over windows on the interior and exterior
Power structures to provide much needed light
Set traps outside/inside doors and windows
Select and secure fixed containers with locks
Barricade type fortifications can be free placed to hold back and damage zombies and other players.

Hosted gameplay feature runs a server on the local machine. With network setup, this server can be connected to by friends. Solo gameplay feature runs local server and uses local host to connect.

The host option allows a player to start a public or privately hosted server.
Create private parties to play only with friends.
Create a solo server and play by yourself without the worry of other players possibly ruining your good time.

The horde system keeps track of a few statistics including how many ‘horde nights’ you’ve survived, how many zombies you’ve killed, when the horde starts and stops along with the direction the horde is approaching from.

Difficulty progresses with the more hordes you survive.
Horde difficulty can be set between 1 and your highest achieved difficulty.

Realistic food and drink intake is a big part of the game. You don’t need to eat too frequently so eating and drinking feels like a smooth mechanic and less like a burden. Eating and maintaining a proper diet can even result in character buffs.

Realistic calorie consumption
Realistic hydration system
Only eat what you need for a day
Eat more and build your calorie, stamina and overall health stats
Consume cooked foods to lower your chance of sickness
Hunt game for larger meals

Getting around an island the size of this one isn’t easy on foot.

Realistic fuel consumption
Realistic part system
Vehicles support more than one passenger
Vehicles can power structures

Powering a structure can provide light to make night time activities easier. Some structures also require electricity to power interior and exterior doors.

Power an electric meter with a generator
Power a set radius with a generator in the wild
Supply a structure or area with electricity
Power lights
Crafted electrical items like work lamps
Power gas pumps to retrieve fuel

Simplified text based inventory and crafting allows us to greatly expand on in game items and crafting possibilities without the graphical overhead.

Simplified crafting system

Combine food items with canteens to create meals that are ready to cook
Easy to navigate an search for recipes
Search based on recipe or ingredient
Use large and small workbenches to craft items both large and small

The placement system allows for players to move any crafted or found physical game drop as they see fit. Placement will allow for players to make a structure feel more like their own.

Manipulate any loot drop
Placement directly from the inventory
Place and store goods on counters, shelves or tables
Organize your safe house

Our mental health system is being developed to discourage “Kill On Sight” mentality. The zombies are a real threat and you’ll better your chances of surviving with friends and not killing every stranger that comes walking by. PVP is still a factor as it should be and there are means to correct a negative mental state.

Kill players repeatedly and pay the price
Eat raw or rancid foods and lower your mental state
Eat warm meals or fresh foods to raise your mental state
Extreme lows in the mental health stat will result in death

Our weather system is dynamic including all four seasons along with seasonal vegetation and foliage.

There’s a big difference between day and night, remembering that may be key to your survival. Day and night cycles make for dynamic gameplay. Zombies are scarce and far more docile during daylight hours. Nightfall brings out dead so it’s best to be indoors by then. Traveling at night is not advised. Using a firearm in a town at night would draw hordes. It’s best to stick indoors unless you have a large group of friends.

Server based leader boards allow you to see who has survived the longest on the server. Each player will also have personal stats seen via the main menu. The game also tracks global stats, seen on our website/forum and discord server.

Something we’re including right from the first alpha build is steam achievements. How many nights will you survive? Just like all of our features we’ll gather ideas for Steam Achievements from the community. We’ll expand greatly on achievements but you’ll have many to earn in early access such as nights survived, trees felled, times killed, zombies killed etc.

Plans for Future Updates:

Expand electrical systems to include full power to the island – The island currently features a massive power station and it has been designed with functionality in mind. The power stations will supply power to substations which can power entire towns.
Expand the tool system – We’d like to incorporate power tools and additional tools into the game to make fortification a quicker process.
Expand on crafting – With the community’s help, we’ll expand on all of the crafting categories such as designing and implementing anything that suits the gameplay and is backed by the community.
Expand fortification and add vehicle fortification – Additional trap and fortification types like sheet metal, plywood, bars and fencing. Fortifications added to vehicles.
Additional vehicles – One of our goals is to expand on “mobile survival” such as adding box trucks and eventually trailer trucks which could make for an excellent mobile survival experience.
Vehicle storage and towable generators – Take your loot with you, store goods in on board containers or in trunks. Towable generators and lighting rigs for setting up camp in the wild.
Expand on the leveling system – Do a certain task, gain XP. The more XP, the better you are at doing said task. This will be a simple old school leveling system.
Additional weapons – Weapons will stay civilian based while not adding anything too over the top when it comes to military weaponry. We’d love to hear your ideas for craftable weapons.
Expand hunting – Larger game, more small game trapping options.
Fishing – Spend your days shore side with a line in the water, if you think it’s safe.
Expand on design – Added towns, additional town designs and reworks. Sewer systems, a bridge or ferry to Black Island Prison
Character customization – A full scale character customization feature including the implementation of a female character
Structure manager – Clean structures, paint, repair, add holiday features, remove furniture, display structure stats.
Grouping system – Players can join a grouping system with friends.
Island wide community missions and events – Come together to clear out larger structures. Band together and share your loot to repair the power station and provide the entire island with power.
