About this game
Play 8 Hours Till Dawn solo, or with up to five other friends, a survival party game where you each plan out your actions and movements simultaneously before the timer runs out.
You can't see each other's plans so you talk, argue, and panic your way through each hour. Then watch as that plan falls apart, someone is covering the south side of the house... right?
Find weapons, buy items, barricade windows, set traps, manage your ammo, buy better weapons at the mall, navigate the woods, and most of all, survive the night.
A ton of weapons to find
Play the way you want
Choose a survivor with unique asymmetrical abilities
Or create your own
What Will Be Available in the Demo
Arcade mode (Survive 8 Hours and then escape.)
Pure Arcade, survival horror fun. You and your team are in the house and it already has a decent arsenal, the dead are at every window, and you have eight hours to hold it together until dawn. This is where every wrong decision could cost you everything. Quick games and some of the customization. With multiplayer support.

I designed this as a four player game. It runs great anywhere from solo to six survivors, but four is the sweet spot the game was built around.
