What the hell is this project?


I'm thrilled to share the first glimpse of my journey into game development with "Bob's DIY World." This project is a labor of love and my first dive into the realm of game development. This game is a unique concoction, blending the horde-survival mechanics inspired by Vampire Survivors, the perspective of FPS games, and the world-building charm of Dorfromantik. It's a project born out of my admiration for these genres and my desire to fuse them into a single, cohesive experience:

  • Survival Meets Creativity: At its core, the game is about surviving in a zombie-infested world. But there's a twist – your creativity is your greatest weapon. Craft, build, and expand your way to safety.
  • Dynamic World-Building: Players can look forward to an expandable world that grows with their progress. Discover new tiles, resources, and challenges as you carve out your domain.
  • Rich Crafting System: Gather materials and construct everything from shelters to weapons. Your ability to adapt and create will determine your survival.
  • Solo Adventure: Initially focusing on a single-player experience to ensure depth and quality. Dive into a game where your choices have consequences, and your ingenuity leads the way.
  • Evolving Gameplay: The game will continuously evolve, reflecting feedback from the community and my growing expertise in game development.

What Players Can Expect:

  • Engagement: A rich, engaging storyline intertwined with survival and crafting mechanics. Every playthrough offers a new challenge and opportunity to innovate.
  • Exploration: A world ripe for exploration, filled with secrets, dangers, and rewards. Your curiosity will be rewarded.
  • Progression: Experience growth through a detailed progression system that rewards exploration, combat, and crafting.

What Not to Expect (For Now):

  • Multiplayer Mode: Focusing on crafting a memorable single-player experience before considering multiplayer expansions.
  • Complex AI Companions: The game currently emphasizes survival and creativity without the addition of AI companions or complex NPC interactions.
  • Instant Gratification: "Bob's DIY World" is designed for players who enjoy gradual progression, exploration, and the satisfaction of building something from scratch.

This game is a canvas for my passion for game development and a letter to the community that supports indie creators. I invite you to join me on this journey, share your feedback, and help shape the world of "Bob's DIY World." Together, we can build something extraordinary.
