Midforest Survivor
SteamMidforest Survivor is a survivor-like VR game with roguelite elements. The player is (surprisingly) trying to survive in the middle of a forest. Take your guns, shoot the hordes of regular deadly forest monsters and upgrade your skills and weapons.
You play as an unfortunate ordinary human, who ended up in the middle of an ordinary forest. You know, that nasty evil place without any concrete, roads and cars, were everything is just trying to kill you all the time. Fortunately there is still the man’s best friend with you… oh yes, that’s right – a gun! Obliterate bloodthirsty monsters and survive a forest.
Since this game is a VR game, it brings one interesting small twist to the survivor-like genre. The player need to actively aim guns through iron sights and reload manually with hands. More and more monsters are all around you and it becomes more and more challenging to aim and shoot them fast enough.
As killing monsters in time becomes more and more difficult, it is necessary to collect points and level up your character. At each new level you can unlock one of the upgrades or skills.
Unlocking weapon upgrades can gradually improve your shooting capabilities significantly. There are upgrades for bigger magazines with more ammo, for better sights, extra damage effects for bullets, faster reloads or even burst and auto fire modes.
Alternatively you can upgrade skills that unlock ways to deal extra damage passively without the need to actively fire. This becomes especially important later at night when there are too many enemies and where passive skills can really help with crowd control. Will you survive your encounter with a forest? Or will you die like many before and try again on your next run?
