Dead Matter Dev Tracker

Congrats to the Alpha testers who completed our scavenger hunt! 🔎

Their sleuthing skills earned them a prize pack that we'll be mailing to them.

For the many of you patiently waiting for Early Access, we'll be doing more contests down the line.

We have a new outfit to show off from our character art side.

Here's a classic plaid-clad individual that Albertans know all too well. 🪓

Before the outbreak were they going for craft IPAs in Banff or cutting down a Christmas tree in a national park? No one will ever know!

Howdy, survivors. We're back with another update blog. Check it out for info on:

⬆️ Performance upgrades
🏕️ Bow Valley campground

An infected-wasting weapon that pairs well with tea and crumpets, introducing the L85A2. 🇬🇧

Standard issue in the British Armed Forces for over 30 years, this backer-requested boomstick will soon be going to animation so it can appear in the Bow Valley.

What was once a family home is now just a place to find supplies and briefly avoid the onslaught of looming threats. 🌲🏠🌲

A skilled member of our 3D team recently undertook revamping our weapon lighting and textures.

We noticed issues with weapons being too dark with textures that didn't show their detail so we addressed it.

Featured below: MP7, MP5, and TEC 9.

🎶 See my vest, see my vest, for killing infected, it's the best! 🎶

Our 3D team recently buttoned up this nice leather vest/jacket combo.

Pay homage to an icon of post-apocalyptic cinema with this road-tested garment. 🛣️

Maybe we shouldn't search those bags for supplies... ☣️

#DeadMatter #indiegame #ScreenshotSaturday

*pssst* Here's a sneaky little preview of some new assets that will be featured in our next blog post.

As you were.

#DeadMatter #indiedev #indiegame

The number one facial accessory of the past few years, the N95 mask, is being added to #DeadMatter. 😷

Slap one on your character to become a pandemic fashion icon.

Or separate art from reality and avoid the thing altogether. Also valid!

Featuring over 30 lootable camping stalls, the Three Sisters’ Campground will be an outdoorsy survivor’s dream! 🏕️

Utilizing real-world locations and tooling them for dynamic gameplay is something we are extremely proud to be undertaking. 🌲

*splat* *splat* *splat* *thunk*

In case you missed it, our most recent blog post features a preview of some of the infected-crushing vehicular mayhem being worked on for #DeadMatter.

We have two new outfits to show off.

The first is a dapper suit for survivors who wish to kill in style (try not to get guts on it!). 🕴️

The second is a pink sweatsuit for those who enjoy their TV shows packed with gory childhood games and anti-capitalist metaphor! 🦑

After a brief break to focus on highlighting 0.7.0 hotfixes, the #DeadMatter blog is back.

Check the newest post for info on:
📅 A new blog schedule
🏕️ New campground location
👖 New player clothing
🚗 Vehicle physics and features (with video!)

What's worse? A hoard of approaching infected? Or a dirty restroom at a campground? *shudder*

🩸 Blood red. 🩸

#DeadMatter #indiegame #screenshot

Hey, survivors! Our first blog post since the 0.7.0 update is now live.

The post outlines the three hotfixes we've pushed so far. Alpha testers can read to learn what to expect and our non-backer followers can read to follow our progress.

Doors bolted shut and latches locked.

What were once lifesaving mobile units have become sealed tombs for the infected. 🚑🧟
