Play as either a Core or Hardcore character and engage with various Factions, all vying for power and control with their own intentions and motivations. WTP focuses on realism, immersion, tactical gameplay, and horror. Blending the high skill ceiling of Tactical Shooters, with the high-risk, high-reward of Extraction Shooters, our goal is to provide a truly unforgiving experience.

Devlog 6 Preview
Devlog 6 Preview 2Unreleased OSTFor those who aren't following We The People through our Discord or our Youtube Channel, this might be the first you're seeing our most recent update. Devlogs often take longer than we would like, since most of our free time goes toward building the game itself. But every now and then, we get the chance to show off something really cool.For a while, we’ve kept quiet about an opportunity we’re really excited about: working alongside the incredible composer Nathan Whitehead and his team. Nathan’s work includes Days Gone, Back 4 Blood, Gears of War, Bioshock, Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank, along with a ton of awesome movies and shows like The Purge, Transformers, etc. So we feel honored to get the opportunity to work with him. He’s been cooking up something special for We The People. For now, please enjoy this preview teaser he and his team sent us-and expect a lot more in our upcoming Devlog, we’re excited to finally show a piece of that unreleased OST while showcasing our introduction level and discussing what it was like building an onboarding experience that goes beyond the typical extraction shooter intro, leaning deeper into the horror, atmosphere, and tension you'd find in a Zombie game. For those interested in listening to our released OST, feel free and check it out here: Devlog 6 Preview 1MusicA preview of our 6th installment of the WTP Devlog Series. Where we'll go in-depth into our process in creating our games Introduction Mission. Detailing what it was like to work with Voice Actors, utilizing MoCap, and building out our newest map 'Martial Law' to be used for both our Intro & the Extract gameplay loop. Stay tuned for the full video-soon.Read full article on Community Announcements (Small Indie Company)AnnouncementsOfficial
