About Dead Wave

Dead Wave is a first-person zombie survival horror game where a mysterious radio signal is the only thing standing between you and the end of the world — or the thing that caused it.

Trapped inside a fortified survivor base during the early hours of the outbreak, you play as Jack, a sharp-tongued, exhausted everyman doing his best to stay alive, stay sane, and figure out why the dead started walking the moment a strange UHF transmission hit the airwaves.

Armed with scavenged weapons, improvised tools, and a dangerously sarcastic inner monologue, you’ll explore abandoned facilities, restore failing systems, and fight back against the undead while uncovering the truth behind Dead Wave — a signal that refuses to go silent.

🧟 SURVIVE THE DEAD

Zombies aren’t just obstacles — they’re a constant threat that reacts to sound, light, and your mistakes.

•
Face relentless undead enemies in tight, atmospheric environments
•
Choose when to fight, when to run, and when to hide
•
Manage health, stamina, ammo, and scarce resources
•
Every encounter is dangerous, especially when supplies run low

Survival isn’t guaranteed — it’s earned.

🔦 IMMERSIVE FIRST-PERSON HORROR

Experience horror through Jack’s eyes with full first-person immersion.

•
Dynamic lighting and deep shadows
•
Limited flashlight power and battery management
•
Environmental storytelling through notes, props, and abandoned spaces
•
Tense audio design that makes every sound matter

Darkness isn’t just scary — it’s lethal.

🧠 A STORY TOLD THROUGH PLAY

There are no cutscenes to hide behind. Dead Wave tells its story entirely through gameplay.

•
Fully voiced protagonist narration reacts to your actions
•
Radio transmissions reveal clues, warnings, and unanswered questions
•
Discover VHS tapes, recordings, and survivor notes
•
Piece together what caused the outbreak — and why the signal still broadcasts

Jack’s dark humor masks fear, panic, and the growing realization that this apocalypse might not have been an accident.

🛠️ SCAVENGE, CRAFT, AND ADAPT

Survival means using whatever you can find — or build.

•
Scavenge abandoned survivor bases and facilities
•
Craft essential items to stay alive
•
Repair systems, restore power, and reinforce defenses
•
Turn found materials into tools, weapons, and upgrades

The world is broken. You’ll have to fix just enough of it to survive.

🔫 WEAPONS & TOOLS OF DESPERATION

From blunt melee weapons to limited firearms, every tool matters.

•
Melee combat when ammo runs dry
•
Firearms with realistic scarcity and tension-filled reloads
•
Weapon handling designed to keep you vulnerable
•
Improvised tools that reflect survival over power fantasy

This isn’t about being a hero — it’s about making it through the night.

📻 THE SIGNAL IS STILL BROADCASTING

A radio crackles to life. A voice cuts through the static. The dead start walking.

Whatever Dead Wave is… It’s still transmitting.

And if you can hear it — you’re already part of the story.
