Survive the West

About this game

You find yourself in a desert, full of strangers, wild animals and stuff you might want to collect. Gather everything you can, build some protection for yourself and be careful about others that might plan on hindering you.



Get rich or die trying.
If there's one thing you can find in the Wild West, then it's resources, waiting for you to collect them. Many of the things you see might look pretty, but they would feel even better when added to your inventory. Chop some wood, collect stones and use the local animal population to gather food.

For every problem, there's a solution.
Collecting wood takes too long? Craft an axe. Animals take way too many hits? Build a weapon. You can't see anything at night? Light a torch.
Thanks to a crafting system, all your resources have a specific use and, trust me, you don't want to miss out on any.

Home is where the wood is.
In times of basically no existing status icons, your own home is the best way of showing how superior you are. If you already built all the different tools and don't know what to do with all your leftover materials, then use them and create your own house, just the way you want it to be. A construction plan turns you into an architect in no time and a few minutes later, you will build walls wherever and whenever you want.

A trouble shared is a trouble halved.
The desert doesn't have to be that lonely. Thanks to full Multiplayer-Support, you can get your friends to keep you company. You will be able to collect double the materials without any extra effort, or you simply get yourself some competition. Other people, other houses and many extra nuances, like PvP or raiding of their bases to get even richer.

Are you playing these shooter games again?
If you don't feel like Wild West progress driven gameplay today, then don't worry, and get yourself into one of our additional gamemodes. Deathmatch, Team-Deathmatch and many more you can waste some time on and get this K/D up.
(Attention: These modes are still in a very early development stage)

  Update 1.03

  My fellow survivors, as promised before, here's what we've been working on. So, as you probably now, the game was playable but didn't have too many features yet. We're building on that base now and are improving many aspects, while adding completely new ones. The overall experience should be improved, the game looks and feels way better now. With increased population of the world, the game feels more alive and things like horses you can use as mounts, or a generally better AI makes the gameplay more enjoyable. The performance got better and many errors are fixed. We are also already working on our next update focused on adding more longtime motivation for the people who are in for a story, rather than having nothing to do but to hoard resources. Here's a list, of most of the changes. Have fun and stay tuned! Features New Main Menu New Settings Menu New High Quality Animation System New Character animations with better transitions New Riding system added New swimming system Better Splash Effects New underwater rendering More realistic Character movement New foot Ik for more realistic movement Added Footprints to enable tracking New Dynamic Animal AI Added Animal Childrens Aging of Children and Animals New animals in all regions (water, ground, air) New deer species , man woman and childrens New bear species , man and woman New pumas species , man and woman New rabbits species New wolf species New animals Animations (water, ground) Replaced old animals with better models and animations Advanced AI damage system Way more life across the map, with increased animal spawns Better performance and lighting Added LODs for all objects Improved spawning in players surrounding Improved networking of characters and weapons Fixes Fixed armor amount Fixed where weapon animations didn't work for clients Fixed equipment not loading on newly connected clients Fixed weapons not attached for new clients Fixed save system loading duplicated grids for new clients Fixed full auto shooting...

  Surprise, we're back!

  Hello Friends, this might be a little unexpected and sudden, but here we are, back again, telling you what's happening with "Survive the West", and boy, do we have news for you! So, as you might know, it's been quite some time since our last update and we won't go into too much detail about why that is (for now), but it also means we were able to work on a bigger update. We took months to work on the new features that are coming your way and we hope that you will like them as much as we do. In the next few days we will create a whole new post telling you about what you can expect and also release the update for you to try out. As always, your feedback would be appreciated and help us out in terms of finding out, what you guys miss and think should be changed. Feel free to use the community discussions or contact us directly. Stay tuned, the Deverinos

  News about the next updates

  Hello western fighters, We bring in few days our next big update 1.02 out. We reworked the hole main menu, fixed many sound bugs and added many new animals. The update will bring a better saving system and lightning fixes and more. We are working still on the dedicated server system, we will bring the dedicated server system probably in the 1.03 version out, we had many other things to fix that's why we are so late with the dedicated server system. We apologize for the late update of the dedicated server system. We’re working very hard to bring more content out, we are using assets which we need to rework for our game, many things are changed or completely modified, 3D models don't include gameplay mechanics or are not ready to use. We made as well many things on our own, we had to rework the hole character system, the buildings and more. We are a small team, and we try our best to use our resources for optimizing the game. Each big Studio is buying 3D models to spend more time for programming and optimizing the game. We are not a big studio, and we need to apologize for issues which we are doing, and we will try to fix the price soon as possible.
