WELCOME TO SCP: GROUND ZERO!



[h3]We've decided we'll be changing our official name on Steam after full release sometime this year.
This is to directly counter the old version of the game which was very similar to other SCP games of that time. [/h3]

[previewyoutube=tM3hqg3ORxY;full][/previewyoutube]

[h2]Here are some expected changes in the full release:[/h2]

• [h3]Gamemodes[/h3]
  The 5 new gamemodes allow for varied gameplay - are you looking for a shooting gallery? We have it. Are you looking for a horror experience? It's there. And finally, are you looking for an SCP FPS about infiltrating the facility itself? We have that too.
  And if you're interested, there's also a mode where you can spawn in any item or enemy and do as you wish.
  
  
  
  Point is, this should allow for much more varied ways to play the game!
  
  
  
• [h3]Facility Generation[/h3]
  This one's obvious, now facilities will generate randomly for more replayable gameplay. This also means some story elements, items and enemies will also be random!
  
  
  
  You can also set a seed or use a random one which means sharing layouts will be quick and easy!
  
  
  
• [h3]New Enemies[/h3]
  Meet the Cobras! Mobile Task Force unit designated Charlie-9, a highly trained and highly armed branch of MTF designed specifically to protect Area-14 (Which is our new location).
  
  
  
  They will be quite a challenge, they won't go alone, they'll hunt you down and they'll be watching your every step.
  We haven't forgotten about SCPs either, all SCP will be reworked to be harder and smarter adversaries.
  
  
  
• [h3]New Combat[/h3]
  What better way to kill the previously mentioned new enemies than with a new arsenal of weapons!
  Previously, we only had a pistol. Now, our arsenal includes Shotguns, Rifles, Railguns, Flamethrowers and more!
  
  
  
  These weapons will be extremely useful against the new SCP enemies too!
  
  
  
• [h3]So Much More![/h3]
  New characters, environments, optimising, gameplay, sound improvements and so much more!
  

[h2]What's Been Going On?[/h2]
We haven't posted any updates almost all year and we've heard people say the game is abandoned. That is in no way the case! The update is taking us a long time since we really want to make the most content possible. New guns, locations, graphical improvements, optimisations, story elements etc.


[h3]We've been focusing a lot on making the combat unique and fun but also staying within the lines of the SCP lore and, of course, making sure the SCPs are still terrifying.[/h3]

[h2]Short Combat Teaser[/h2]
[previewyoutube=ZCb6EUGVLG8;full][/previewyoutube]
Raw, uncut gameplay of a short battle within Light Containment against Special Forces.
We've tried to make the AI advanced to actually pose a threat - they'll talk to other members about where you are, if you're hiding, they'll investigate sounds they hear etc.

[h2]Tell Us Your Opinion![/h2]
What do you think of the update thus far? What should be added or changes?
(Keep in mind, saving is already a feature, so no need to mention it)
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

We'll post more announcements but we encourage you to join our discord server for the most info and teasers and to tell us what you think!

Thank you for reading and for your patience,
We hope to see you soon!

Hello!

We wanted to make a quick announcement about the progress of our newest update! Currently, our plan is to stray further from other games similar to this one and work on improving gameplay and optimisation. As of now, we have many core features added and lots of exciting stuff to come such as:


[h3]NEW GAMEPLAY ELEMENTS[/h3]

These new gameplay changes and areas are accompanied by a variety of new exciting puzzles and challenges which will hopefully increase overall game-time but also increase general diversity in gameplay since, as of now, the game is very "monotone". We've negated this by making the game a lot more focus on combat!(More on that below)

[h3]BETTER MOVEMENT / MOBILITY[/h3]

With this new gameplay style we've implemented ventilation shafts that the player can crawl through to get to new locations, complete puzzles or get an advantage on the enemies! (And yes, the enemies are human!)


[h3]NEW ENEMIES[/h3]

We won't get too in-depth with the human enemies as they are still being worked on, but they should act as initial enemies the player faces and the real threat, apart from the SCPs, of course.


[h3]NEW COMBAT[/h3]

These new changes allow us to make combat fun. Before, you could find a pistol, but it was ultimately useless since it would switch your flashlight which you need to see and had limited bullets. Plus, SCPs don't usually care if you're shooting them, which made the guns useless.
With these new enemies, you can expect exciting firefights to take place throughout the facility - You decide the outcome.


We hope to release this update soon, but we still don't have a set date in time, which is why we decided to notify everyone that we are still, in fact, improving the game!

Hello!

Thank you very much for following this project and its progress. We are getting closer by the day to the release. We don't want to give a specific date yet, but we plan on releasing version 0.1.0 sometime in April.

We want to make sure the game has as little bugs as possible and as much content as we can put in it right now.

Until the game is released, this is the final update.
We hope to see you play the game, if you have any questions or want to discuss anything about the game, feel free to join our discord server!

Hello!
As of right now the release on steam is in question.
We need to upload the full game onto steam which means this will take months for us to finish and submit.

The good news is that we have all beta builds on both gameJolt and itchio in case you're interested!

LINKS TO UPDATED GAME:
Itchio page
GameJolt page

All updates will be posted on these 2 pages and our discord!

Hello!
Thank you all for the interest in the game!

Currently i am mostly done with all the game mechanics, all that needs to be done next is the story elements.
The game will release on September 20th with a 5 dollar price tag as recommended and a gold upgrade for the same price. Now, this was an extremely hard decision. But if the game does gain an audience i would like to make it free and give the gold ugrade to anyone who paid for the game as compensation.

The game will be in a testing stage now and after release i plan on fixing any major bugs as soon as possible.

Like always, be sure to join our discord for updates and teasers!

Hello!

Here's some news on the first update.
The game is now based on the SCP foundation to be clear.
Secondly, there's a new teaser trailer released on our youtube channel and on the store page!
We've worked on the DLC as the community has decided that the game should be free but have cosmetic camo DLC instead, which we have done.

The release date has been moved by a month before, now its around September 2019.
We'll be releasing a QnA on our youtube channel in a few days aswell so go and check us out there for more info and join our discord!

Hello,

I have just released the fiest devlog on our channel.
Heres the link. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rT7UyEx3p_U
It shows off some of the core features so far.
You can follow the full features, announcements, news and updates on
Our discord here: https://discord.gg/knsr7Xg

Thank you for reading!

-Nikk

Hello!
I've been very unpleased with the game and have ultimately decided to change the graphics and story. I also have a small team rather than working on my own which will make the release faster.
And yes, there WILL be a release.
As for the game's core gameplay there wont be much of a difference. There will still be the sheer zombie killing fun that i tried to make.
I'll be posting updates mostly on my discord which you can find here:
https://discord.gg/dV2pFEG
Check that out for new updates, announcements, concept art, suggestion and ideas and much more!
Thank you for your patience with this.

Edit: For anyone wondering, the game is probably going to be free to play with an option of donating to the creators. This is in no way a AAA game and is just a passion project by a few students.

-Nikk

Hello,
I've just made the first build of the game and sent it to Valve to check,they said they will get back to me in 2-3 days. If all goes well, the earliest release is the 1st of January 2019! Let's hope everything goes smoothly! If you want to join the game's discord to be updated on any annoucements or updates,be sure to join it. https://discord.gg/QRQeADg
Thank you,

Hello,
for anyone saying "this is never going to be released",it really offends me,ive been working all day for around a month now to finish the game,but everytime i say "im done!" theres another bug me and my testers discover.
Please be patient,im only 1 person,and 1 person can only do some much work on a game at once.
Thank you for your patience,
Nikk

Hello,
Just making this announcement to let you know that the game is almost done,all i need to do is put the physical game on steam,hopefully within this week,i plan some major updates to be added aswell after the game is released so spread the news! If the game is popular enough i will probably move to free to play.
Nikk

Hello,
I've been working to fix as many issues as possible at the moment,before the release of the game.
It's taking a bit longer that expected due to the number of bugs in the pre-release version.
As i said,if the game is popular enough it will feauture weekly updates so make sure to share it around!
I'll be posting any updates but for now,here's a screenshot on the final phase of the game!
P.S. Zombie's heads can now explode when dealing a headshot!
Thank you all!
-Nikk

Hello!
The release has been postponed while i workout some of the major bugs and fix everything up!
The game will have almost-weekly updates as planned with a new weapon coming out every week and a major update every month or so if we can get some support for the game!
Ive also been working on fixing the graphics,while making the game i didnt pay much attention,but now i realise it doesnt look the best,so ill work on making it as best as possible!
Thank you for reading,have a nice day!
-Nikk

After months of work,legal fees,updates and post "Nukalypse Zombie Survival" is on steam!
The game will be available for purchase hopefully around 15th October with almost-weekly updates to the game.
Thank you all!
