Build your car. Your convoy is your clan.
A co-op survival game for one to eight players on a dry, broken frontier. You start on foot with a pickaxe, a shovel and a hammer. You dig ore, strip scrap and raise a camp, then weld together the vehicles your convoy will live in.
Nobody spawns with a car. You gather ore and scrap by hand, set up a crafting bench and a tent, and work toward your first vehicle. Then a better one. Pickups, buggies, cargo trucks, an armoured bus, a dozer, a 14-tonne excavator. Players build, upgrade and paint every one of them.
Camps are the only safe ground, and only for twenty minutes before the radiation pushes you back out. Convoys regroup there, then head back out into the open.
Every vehicle has a modelled interior and a driver you can see through the windscreen. The glass carries dust, streaks, water spots and the arc of the wipers, and it cracks where it is hit.
Armour, parts and cargo all add mass. So does water, the resource everything runs on, at a litre to the kilo. A light rig is fast. A loaded one is safe. Engines, suspension and load limits decide where your convoy lands between the two.
Each vehicle comes out of our own Blender pipeline: body, moving parts, pivots, sockets and mass. It ships with three LODs and convex colliders. Skins are made entirely in-house.

A closer look at what is in the build right now.
Welded plates over the windows, rust running down from every bolt.
A lattice tower that folds down for the road and stands up to drill.
Open the box and the crates are really in there. Their mass counts.
Flatbed, cage, log and tanker. A tanker of water is a tonne of weight.
Tier kits bolt onto sockets on the body. Each one has a mass, and the game counts it.
A new rock set built from scanned surfaces and broken blocks. It has to hold up at two metres.
Build your car. Your convoy is your clan.
Phases from our own production log, in order. No dates, only where each part stands.
The core loop, zone rules and vehicle tiers on paper. Scope locked for co-op: 1 to 8 players, player-hosted, no PvP.
A first playable build with a 1 km test map, a drivable junk car and the weight system.
Steering, grip and braking reworked. Our driving test track passes 19 out of 19.
409 real recorded effects and a music system that follows what is happening.
Ten classes with modelled interiors, real glass and in-house skins. The excavator has been rebuilt. The dozer and the drill truck are next in line.
Pickaxe, shovel and hammer, a portable workbench, a tent and a shelter that survives a reload. Tool animations are still placeholders.
Resources spread across the whole map. A new rock set is in its realism test.
Up to eight players in one convoy, on servers the players host themselves.
We are testing a new rock set built from scanned surface materials and broken blocks. The goal is canyon walls that hold up at two metres, not only from the road.
The on-foot loop runs in our test scenes: pickaxe, shovel and hammer, a portable workbench, a tent, and a shelter that is still standing after you save and reload. Tool animations are placeholders for now.
Our first excavator looked like a toy. It now has real 14 tonne proportions, a welded boom, paired hydraulic cylinders and an operator cab. The full story is in the devlog.
