Survival Game Devlog_01 - Feedback

Hey everyone, I’ve just uploaded a short video showing the core gameplay system for a survival game I’m currently developing.

The game is still in the very early stages of development, so everything is pretty simple and placeholder right now, but I wanted to start sharing progress early and get some honest feedback from people.

I’d genuinely love to hear:

  • what you like
  • what you don’t like
  • what looks confusing
  • or even features/mechanics you’d personally like to see in a game like this.

Any feedback or suggestions would really help me out and help shape the direction of the game going forward. Thanks for checking it out!

I can't see the video ☹️

Any reason why it doesnt work?

Nice start. I watched the video and one thing I noticed is that some parts feel a bit too dark, so it is hard to read what is happening on screen.

For a survival game, dark atmosphere can work well, but I’d try to keep important gameplay objects, threats, and interactable areas more visible.

Maybe a small brightness pass, stronger highlights, or clearer contrast around key objects would make the video and gameplay easier to understand.

So far it looks really early to me. What I'm missing so far is a sense of progress. Of course at first in this kind of scenario you want to survive, but what do you do with the stuff you are gathering and earning once you have enough not to starve? Is there something to explore? Is the goal to return where you came from once you have everything you need for that? Will you build a settlement?
