Infinite Survival

I do not recommend this game. I was playing a potentional great game the last hour, but it lacks some basic functionallity I believe is essential for any game. As the title use the word infinite, I expect an infinite way of playing on random (procedural) generated maps forever and I believe this title is capable of offering that. While the lore is small (there are only ten enemies), there are a lot of crafting recipes to create a lot of items, weapons and even simple base building. There are multiple biomes and caves you can enter and the screenshots shows a world map that looks like a huge world. The worldmap button in my game is greyed out and I lack info as a starting player why that is the case? Is it a function that is not in use yet? Do I have to craft it? There is a simple explanation of the game in an ingame help file you have access to, but also here nothing about the world map. While playing there are some things that triggered my attention in a positive way. The UI, th...

So due to the nature of this game (as endless and very simple in content) I'm going to review this game a bit earlier than I'd normally do. It also means that my opinion may change as I play a bit longer and as the game still seems to be in development I will be sure to follow up if any of my opinions change. To begin, I actually enjoy the basis of this game. I like its simplicity (with an exception I will bring up later). Both in content and visual, less is more is used to its best in this game. It's a simple enough game and the contained time frame changes what sort of infinite survival game it is. The mechanics are for the most part simple and there is enough variation in tile and terrain to make replaying it very interesting. A slightly neutral note, my enjoyment of each session rides on what sort of map is generated in the beginning. I was initially going to give this game a more negative review but I tried playing a bit more and found I hadn't enjoyed the game before as I had ...

I enjoyed playing this. Small game for a small price. Would have liked to play in more of a sandbox, but there's no way to disable the 5 day timer and actually make it 'infinite'. Getting a decent starting position can become frustrating. You're either getting owned or god of the wasteland, without much in between. Basically, I want more.

(CORRECTION: It seems there is a save, which I discovered by accident. This would be because the game in no way communicates that it will save your progress when you return to the main menu. This makes the time limit even worse, really.) I'm really enjoying this game, but it doesn't seem to have had any updates for over a year, the dev is notoriously unwilling to engage in discussions, and there's a couple of serious flaws that mean I can't really recommend it to anyone else. While I'm personally actually very much enjoying the simplicity, even as basic as it is, you'll struggle to experience everything it has to offer due to an in-game timer of about 5-6 days before you are deemed to have survived your "infinite" survival experience. Of course, this might well be because of a lack of any ability whatsoever to save, which would make lengthy runs somewhat difficult. Makes me wish it was open source, or open to modding, so that at least someone else could tie up the basic loose ends.

Can't save the game. You could play it for 30 minutes, to 30 hours, but your progress will always be lost. And its grindy, so there goes that.

Wonderful idea, but too poor world.

I don't usually enjoy crafting games but the simplicity and roguelike elements made me really like Infinite Survival. The only thing it's missing is an endless survival mode (ironic that a game with this name doesn't have one) because there's no incentive for me to keep playing and trying new things if I know it's all going to end when the time runs out.

Do not need too much unnecessary. You are an old school, you love the pixel 80s, adventures, craft, generated world, you came to the address. P.S. I am very glad that I bought a full pack of this game. Thank you! 👍
