Sneak Peak: Rewards for zombie night attacks are coming!Jun 5, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHey Survivors! Today, I’d like to share a bit more about the reward system we’re working on for surviving the nightly zombie attacks. Many of you have mentioned it in your messages, comments, and reviews — and we hear you loud and clear. You want changes, and changes are coming! This post will explain how we plan to make it all work. The Reward System For now, our nighttime zombies don't leave any gravestones on the Machine. Not to mention any loot. But after the upcoming update, every nightly zombie attack will become an opportunity to earn rewards! The reward system is being designed to scale not only with your progress in the game but also to the number of players in the session. The further you are, the better the loot you’ll be able to find! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/52589cdb82126033df0ac184d8ee67c1fb79849e.png The gravestones are a key part of this system. Selected zombies will leave behind gravestones – and that’s where you’ll find your rewards. What can you expect to get? Materials, resources, weapons, and tools. How you divide the loot among yourselves is entirely up to you. Will one of you grab all the best stuff, or will you share everything equally? That’s your call, Survivors! Now you’re probably wondering – when will the update be available? I'I can’t promise a specific date, but we’re working hard and expect it to be ready quite soon! If you have any questions about how our reward system will work, you can always find me here in the comments or on our Discord – which I warmly invite you to join! Take care Survivors! Dzięki!

Yes, you heard that right – custom mode! Starting today, every Survival Machine player will be able to tailor the gameplay to their own preferences. Decide how often and in what numbers zombies will attack your Machine at night. Adjust the number of zombies in our Points of Interest, or take control over the durability of your items! You can find Custom Mode when you start or load a game in the lobby! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/463cb428a7a74bd264a8cc48c8bd12c3f3abc4ce.png What exactly are you going be able to change? We have few options for you: Days Between Zombie Attacks – Survivors can now choose how often zombie attacks occur: every day, every 2, 3. 4 or 5 days, or not at all. The decision is yours! Zombie attacks size during the night - the night attack is too easy? Try 200%! You want the game to be a bit less challanging? 50% is an option for you! Points of Interest Zombie Count - change the number of zombies you'll encounter at our Festival, Caravan Crash and Tent Camp point of interest Core Components Damage Over Time - you decide whether the core components of the Machine will degrade over time or not at all Machine Fuel Usage Multiplier - take control of fuel consumption!

We're now putting the durability system in your hands—tweak it, reduce it, or turn it off entirely! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/0856bc4c4d23386cca254b46665d8ae3bb0275bf.png We hope this update significantly improves your gameplay experience – from now on, you decide how the core mechanics work!

Hi Survivors! This time, I’m splitting this post into parts. In the first part, I want to share the issues you’ve reported that we’ve been working on. In the second part, I’ll talk more about the balance changes. Then something about the future. Ready? Machine fueled up? Great — let’s go! Fixes & Improvements Attempted a fix for items disappearing from the hotbar!!! Reduced GPU usage in the Main Menu to improve performance. The game now starts with the framerate locked at 60 FPS by default; players can unlock it in the settings. Added a failsafe to prevent characters from getting stuck after dodging. Fixed issues with broken storage containers and furnaces not functioning properly. Improved reliability when loading items into storage chests. Fixed a bug where berries and other food items could disappear from the hotbar. Further improvements to this issue are coming shortly. Resolved an issue where save files were not being displayed correctly when using the Turkish language. Quality settings now also adjust draw distance for more accurate performance scaling. Balance Changes Adjusted loot in legendary chests to include greater variety and more rewarding drops. Decreased the durability of the Miner’s Pickaxe to improve tool progression. Made zombie attacks less intense for solo players to improve the solo experience. Lowered the difficulty of zombie attacks in Adventure mode. The dismantler is now unlocked by default and has reduced material costs, making it easier to access early in the game.

The day we've all been waiting for is almost here! We're proud to share what Survival Machine will look like on May 7th—our Early Access launch day. So, what can you expect on May 7th, when Survival Machine makes its debut? In this post, you'll get to know what kind of game we are, dive into our mechanics and what we've got prepared for you in Early Access. Ready? Let’s go! What kind of game is Survival Machine? Let's start with the basics. Survival Machine is a fun, tongue-in-cheek survival-adventure game that’s all about exploring the unknown, smashing zombies, and enjoying the ride with your trusty Machine companion. At its heart, it’s a journey—yours and the Machine’s—filled with action, surprises, and plenty of laughs. Whether you’re flying solo or teaming up with up to three friends, the experience is all about having a blast. With a mix of playstyles for combat, exploring, base building and resource gathering, there’s something for every kind of player. Just remember: it’s all in good fun—don’t take it too seriously! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/3ea99bfed6b46df23ec7d00c35017e4d22a5460b.jpg As part of Early Access, we’ve prepared between 10 and 15 hours of gameplay for you — and we guarantee those hours will be packed with exploration, building, overcoming our challenges, and having a great time, whether you're playing solo or with friends. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/1150bb8a6e463eecef5e7ba4ac82fcab28d5bfaf.jpg This is important: Survival Machine scales for both solo players and co-op, so you don't need to worry about that. We've also prepared 3 difficulty levels, so each of you will find the one that suits your playstyle best.

Great! We have some good news for you Survivors: we're keeping our demo available throughout the weekend! You still have some time to meet Stinker and solve the mystery in Tesla's tower! Our demo will disappear from Steam this coming Monday, March 17th! First of all: A big thank you, Survivors! It's time to slowly say goodbye to the Survival Machine Demo—it’s been one heck of a ride! Thank you for every comment and every piece of feedback you’ve shared. We’ve read all your suggestions carefully, and they are incredibly valuable to us as we continue developing Survival Machine! All good things must come to an end, and the same goes for our demo, which will be shut down on Friday, March 14th at 4:00 PM (CET). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/fb693200014c09bf9c254e09f07c6deed3e3ed8d.jpg You still have a few more days to test your skills against the night-time zombie attacks, explore our world, or take on the points of interest we’ve designed—alone or with your crew. Just a reminder: there’s no time limit in the demo, so the only thing stopping you is your free time! Once again, thank you for all your comments, feedback, and engagement on our Discord! See you on the next one! dzięki! Berdol https://store.steampowered.com/app/1601330/Survival_Machine/We've got all the answers!Mar 1, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHi Survivors! Recently, we asked you to send us your burning questions about Survival Machine and our work! We've gathered your questions from our Discord, social media, and Steam, and now we have the answers for you! No need to drag it out—let’s get started! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/612cbefb813f7f75c2490db1266f4b48457345f0.png Will widescreen be supported? Yes! Our goal is for Survival Machine to fully support widescreen. The current demo already supports 2560x1080 and 3440x1440, but if you have a non-standard resolution, let us know, and we’ll try to add support for it. Will there be a pause in single-player? Yes, single-player mode will have a pause function, but this feature is not yet working in the current demo. Will there be a character editor in the game? No, but we will have several different characters to choose from, so everyone can find one that suits them. However, you won’t be able to customize their appearance. Will there be enemies other than zombies? No, in Survival Machine, you will only fight zombies. However, we plan to introduce many different types and variations of zombies in the future. Are the worlds randomly generated? Survival Machine features partially random world generation. The order in which you discover different parts of the world can change, and elements like POIs, resources, crates and more will be generated in different locations each time you play—so you’ll always find something new! Will inverted mouse controls be available? Yes! Inverted mouse controls will be included. Our developers are working on adding this option right now. Is the world infinite? The world is finite, but with a twist. You shouldn’t be able to hit the end of the map. Instead, the game loads the next part of the world for you, making each session a little different Will I be able to change the difficulty level? At the moment, the demo does not include difficulty settings. However, we are actively considering implementing this feature in the future. Can I move built structures? No, once a structure is built, it cannot be moved. However, you can destroy it with a hammer and rebuild it in a new location. Destroying a structure returns all of the invested resources. Will the game be playable on Steam Deck? We haven't fully explored this topic yet. Our goal is to officially support Steam Deck in the future, but for now, there is no official support. That being said, you CAN already play the game on Steam Deck, but you might encounter some control issues. Will control remapping be available? Yes, you can already change key bindings in the current demo. Will there be a matchmaking mode with random players? Currently, this option is not available. We are operating on an invite-based system. We would like to add this feature in the future, but we can't make any promises at this time. What is the recommended player count for the game? There is no fixed number. You can play Survival Machine solo, in pairs, or in groups of three or four players. ...Coop Demo Hotfix 1.0Feb 27, 2025 - Community AnnouncementsHi Survivors!

Tesla is ready to be explored{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/f37b51c9d33174b39064eb96854aa40aa65d83c1.png We added new Point of Interest to the demo - Tesla. Now you can build a Spike Trap to defend against zombies. Spikes will help you defend your Machine! But remember: the Machine has to be fueled for the traps to work!{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40709796/a3b0f298c62f5bf0302ea6f1b9aa2a28b66389c3.png What has been fixed? There was a Resolution instead of input option in the Input setting. There is no more. Some players couldn't interact with their inventory or pick up loot from zombies. The issue has been resolved. Opening Bug Reporter on launch caused coursor disappearing in Main Menu. We have fixed that. We removed Tool Damage Buff exploit that gave players too high damage on tools and weapons. All players now leave different backpack, one for every player slot, so there would be no mixup after respawn. Quest marker for gathering Stone mission now disappears properly. Now the quest regarding finding Green Goo appears and can be accomplished properly.Thanks for your engagement and all the feedback coming in Survivors – it’s really helpful for us! Don’t forget to play our demo and leave us a review on Steam! See you next time! dzięki! Berdol https://store.steampowered.com/app/3100460/Survival_Machine_Demo/
