It's been days now, and no sign of anyone living. Armed to the teeth, Mel has carved out a piece of the mall for herself and begins scavenging for what she'll need to survive in this retail wasteland.
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is a turn-based survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world. Struggle to survive in a harsh, persistent, procedurally generated world. Scavenge the remnants of a dead civilization for food, equipment, or, if you are lucky, a vehicle with a full tank of gas to get you the hell out of Dodge. Fight to defeat or escape from a wide variety of powerful monstrosities, from zombies to giant insects to killer robots and things far stranger and deadlier, and against the others like yourself, that want what you have…
Gameplay is from Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead's 2023-03-05 experimental release. Experimental builds can be found at cataclysmdda.o...
Music is from CO.AG, packaged with the game's CC-Sounds pack / @co.agmusic
There's also Death Road to Canada and Twisted Metal 2.

This game is so nuts, I used to live in the Sewers and it was pretty safe down there. I would sneak at night into the city above and grab a ton of supplies then go back down into my hole, Slowly I built a whole workshop down there and made a Railbike that I could ride on the rails real fast........I must have raided that whole city I had it all until I found a hidden door to a Science facility in the rail lines and opened up a HUGE spore event that slowly encroached on my settlement......I panicked grabbed my bug out bag went up through my sewer grate and Immediately got G-Banged by 5 Zombie hulks and 300 Kid zombies..... THIS GAME IS THE ONE TRUE GAME I COULD PLAY FOREVER AND NOT GET BORED!

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

I love this! I have never made a sewer base. They're a little scarier now 'cause they added some monsters to them, but I bet you could build a pretty cozy setup down there.

@koffinkat666 Год назад

@@mutantwormgirl There were CHUDDs and Mutant Rats down there when I was playing, Not sure about now. My Rail Bike made me so fast I didn't even have to deal with them and I had an alarm system as well as a huge obstacle course so if I got unwanted guests I could speed off on my Railbike then go back in slowly and pick them off in the dark with night vision goggles. Sewer bases are the best! :D

"We can sneak around if we're careful in these shadows." That's exactly how my last attempt at surviving the hell mall came to an end. I didn't realize tiles weren't binary as you point out here and that ended poorly. Also, I love the PR-24; I honestly prefer it to the cudgel, especially as retracting it makes it way easier to store in your inventory.

@BlazeProductions545 Год назад

Been watching since the first cataclysm tutorial. I really enjoy your little edits and how you present things. The cataclysm videos in particular have got me picking the game back up again after a few years of leaving it be. Keep going, you make good stuff and can only get better at it from here.

@ephemeralstoryteller8867 Год назад

Your Cata vids got me back into the game after a long break from playing and contributing. Whenever you see "unfertilized bird eggs" and baby chicks aren't flooding the streets in spring, think of me. ;p Your vids feels somehow comforting, like swapping stories over a campfire, I like the psuedo-roleplay approach a lot. Fight on!

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

Thanks for your efforts! It's wild to me that the game can be an open source project for ten years and there's still so much being built onto it.

You're really cutting it close with some of those fights. Are you playing a little more daringly because you're recording or does shit just go south that quickly?

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

This is just how I tend to play honestly. I treat HP as gas in the tank and get pretty fast and loose with it. The latest updates are pretty brutal though, they limbified some stuff involving zombie grabs, so getting hurt hurts more now. This is good, even if it makes the game harder. I'll have to be a lot more careful going forward.

This game looks so interesting it reminds a lot of project zomboid but seems a bit more complicated than zomboid

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

Zomboid is heavily inspired by CDDA. They even include the "A Really CD DA" challenge start as an homage. I'd say Zomboid is much more streamlined and refined, though it loses some of the granularity in the exchange, it's sort of like comparing Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress. Both good in their own way.

Hey just a heads up I didn't actually change the thermal electric gear. I only did climate control (which only shows up on whole body equipment). The warmth enchantments are for the whole body, so they don't work well with the individualized thermal electric stuff and I have no clue how best to fix them. Sorry!!

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

Oh whoops. Does that apply to the thermal electric suit, or is it just power armor?

@anoobindisguise4337 Год назад

@@mutantwormgirl Climate control is found on the CBM, RM13, Phase Immersion and Nomad Jumpsuit/Platemail plus powerarmor.

@mutantwormgirl Год назад

@@anoobindisguise4337 That's good news for the CBM, but I think most of the cold-blooded mutants and definitely all the ectothermic ones are incapable of wearing any of that gear.
