Hi there!
Just one message to share with you the progress of my Dismal Survival game.
First thing first, here the Indiegogo link to help finance the project!

If the project is somehow successful (for me this would be raising a minimum of £3300), I will send 10% to Dinomite through his PayPal - I don't think no one here would do that... but I am different - (I found out his YouTube channel and I know he needs it. I don't judge him and surely I don't blame him, times are hard nowadays). I am not joking. Jesus knows what is inside my heart, even if I did messages some shit posts at times and let my human nature take over with bad replies to him. Like Jesus said, this is not the way.

What is Dismal Survival?
Dismal Survival is a first person, or third person, exploration survival video game experience designed with Unreal Engine 4. I am working on Dismal Survival project as a single developer (Excepted for the Music Compositions and Musical Ambiences). There are no zombies or cannibals - Only you, and all the threats Mother Nature can muster - You only have this Cross with you. Survive the cold, the rain, the snow, and the ocean storms. Manage your hunger, thirst and tiredness. Craft your raft and explore many islands of 16 square kilometres each. Craft your axe, your hammer, and build your shelter to survive. Start a fire to cook, to keep warm during the cold nights and winter seasons. Fish, harvest and gather resources. Dismal Survival is inspired by Subsistence, Stranded Deep, The Forest, and The Long Dark games.

What is the game story?
A father and his little daughter were in a terrible car accident on their way to the airport to pick up the mother. The father survived the car crash but had to be put into a deep coma following a cardiac arrest. His little daughter sadly passed away.
The islands and all the survival are all in the father head as he is in a deep coma. The dad refuses to believe that his little girl is dead and he is looking for her. Somehow, he knows she's still alive somewhere. He finally found some peace in a small abandoned church hidden somewhere on one of the islands ... a snowy mountain ... as soon as he entered the small abandoned church, he admitted that she died following the car accident and that she is now in heaven. At the same time, he finally wakes up from his deep coma and feels his little girl's hand in his. The little girl whispers to him that this is time for her to go home. The father also realises that his wife standing in front of his hospital bed is pregnant. What choice will he make? To give up and follow his little girl in heaven or to continue to survive this time in the real world ... without his little angel.
