What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to make the best game we can, and even in beta we’ve learnt that working directly with our community is the best way to do that. Lost scavenger is a huge world and we have lots that we want to add, and Early Access is a way for us to receive constant valuable feedback, collaborate with our players on what they want to see, and keep our players in mind at every step of the development cycle.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Approximately 9 months, but depending on player feedback and the amount of content we choose to put into the final game, it may take longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add more content such as new biomes, new enemies, new bosses and new materials to find. We want to expand the crafting system with new crafting stations, and of course more recipes. We also want to add more types of weapons”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Most planned core features of the game have been implemented. There are about 280 different items (weapons, materials, armor etc) in the game, to be found or crafted by the player. Feature-wise the game is about 65% complete and content-wise it is about 50% complete.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No definitive plans here yet, but it is likely that the price will be increased over the course of the Early Access period.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We currently use our Discord server and the Steam forums as our primary ways to talk to our community. Players are welcome to suggest new features and modifications in the "ideas & suggestions" chat channel. Upcoming changes are openly discussed with the community for early feedback. A closed test-group of players have access to the latest builds of the game and work closely with the dev-team. The test-group evaluates and tests new features and changes before they are released publicly. We will continue to develop this process based on the needs and feedback of the community.”

About This Game


How long could you survive in a parallel universe where the Mist dictates its rules? Would you be able to find the way to your homeworld, or will you adapt to live under the Mist domain? Fight for resources, try to survive and discover the secrets of this world. This is your story.

Lost Scavenger is a hardcore game about surviving in an open world that is overrun by the Mist. You play as an ordinary guy that has fallen into an anomaly and found himself in a world that has been haunted by the Mist for the last 30 years. How far could you make it in a dying world in which every step may be your last one? Would you be able to find the way to your homeworld, or will you adapt to live under the Mist domain?

Features:

  • Unique world. The postapocalyptic world shrouded in impenetrable Mist. Small anclaves of survivours are scattered around what has left of the world. Do you have what it takes to find your path through all this?
  • Active pause. It triggers after your every action so you can thoroughly read your surroundings, make assessions and plan your further actions.
  • One life only. Your character lives only once. If they die, they die. Game over. And yet, it is a cruel world you're going into!
  • No grind. No character leveling, no skill trees, no EXP whatsoever. Instead, you have to learn to play better, use your strengths and compensate your weaknesses. Git gud!
  • Randomly generated world. Different biomes, weather conditions, anclaves and quests make every playthrough unique.
  • Immersive simulation. The narration is dynamic and depends on your world generation settings and actions that you perform in that world. Every playthrough is a new story. And it is not necessary to follow the storyline: you can just wander around the world to try yourself!
  • Virtues and flaws. Choose what you're good at and what you're not every time you start the new game. Unlock new traits during your adventure. They will give you the access to new abilities and dialogue options!
  • Rich crafting system that lets you experiment or craft unique items from recipes that may be found throughout the world.
  • Battles with a wide range of tactical techniques.
  • Realistic damage. Creatures have a complex damage system, including locational damage, bleeding, painkillers, infections and aggravation.
  • Realistic metabolism: fatigue, hunger, dehydration, hypothermia, diseases, intoxication.
  • Mutations: character affected by the Mist might get their limbs or organs mutated, which will grand them unpredictable effects.
  • Realistic inventory. A complex item management system with both weight and volume limits forces players to carry only what is most necessary to character's survival.
  • Hexagonal map. Travel through ruins, hills, forests and plains on a hexagonal map. Direct visibility, altitude and daylight affect the viewing distance.
  • Settlements: meet other survivors in their enclaves. They may provide food, rest and medical care. If you have something to give in return.
  • Scouting: use your gear to explore your surroundings.
  • Stealth tactics: search hiding places, use camouflage and ambush your enemy.
  • Hunting: hunt wildfowl for food and fur, or hunt down big ones for rare ingredients.
  • Use your lockpicking skills to open stashes with precious loot.
  • Foraging. Search for edible plants and water sources, and use special skills to determine what is safe to consume.
  • World inhabitants AI. Everything on the map lives its own life. Creatures wander around, gather resources, hunt each other or gather into packs to higher their chances to survive, which means a great danger to the player.
  • Dynamic weather: daytime cycle, temperature, precipitation - and all of that depends on a season. For now, you always start in the middle of the autumn, and if you're strong enough, you will be able to live until winter.
