Neo Scavenger - Start As You Mean To Go On! - Neo Scavenger Gameplay Part 1
57Welcome to my let's play series with the game Neo Scavenger by Blue Bottle Games, a part-procedurally generated adventure survival simulator where you have awoken in the future from the cryosleep chamber you have been sleeping in to a world which is out to kill you from the start. Will a stranger get you or will that cut on you arm turn septic?! There's so many ways to die in this game!!
In this episode I introduce the game and we go about setting up our first character... but can we get out of the first room without taking a scratch from a HUGE WOLFMAN? I hope so or else this would be the shortest series yet!
-- Game Description --
NEO Scavenger is a game where you must survive in the wasteland long enough to figure out who you are. Each turn, you must decide where to go, how to scavenge for supplies, and how to deal with anything and anyone you encounter. And with each passing minute, the pit in your stomach grows, your dehydration worsens, your muscles tire, and your body temperature drops in the cold autumn air. Choose your starting abilities carefully, because they and your wit are the only tools you have in the apocalypse!
Features:
Unique Setting - Near-future, post-apocalyptic Michigan with local cryptids and folklore. And something else beneath the surface...
Turn-Based Play - Take your time with each turn, and play at your own pace. Save and quit when you want, and resume later.
Permadeath - If you die, that's it. NEO Scavenger is balanced around a single difficulty level: permadeath. Your save will be deleted if you die. So choose every action carefully!
No Grinding - There is no XP in NEO Scavenger. No levelling-up. Instead, progress comes from learning how to play the game better, and using your strengths to your advantage.
Semi-Random - Much of the map is randomized each game, including the location of ruins, creatures, weather, and certain quest branches.
Sandbox or Story - Search for clues to your identity, what happened, and who's hunting you. Or simply test your mettle against man and nature alike. Play how you want!
Abilities and Flaws - Choose abilities and flaws each time you play. Different combos unlock different abilities and quest branches.
Crafting - Extensive crafting system which allows for substitutions of similar items. Make a rifle scope from half a pair of binoculars, or a noise trap from a pill bottle and pebbles.
Desperate Combat - Detailed combat with moves like "Tackle," "Lure," "Kick While Down," "Demand Surrender," and "Threaten."
Realistic Wounds - Creatures have complex wound simulation, with multiple wound locations, infection, bleeding, and pain management.
Realistic Metabolism - Hypothermia, fatigue, thirst, hunger, disease, intoxication, shelter...everything is tracked.
Realistic Inventory - Complex inventory system with slots for holding, wearing, containers, and more. Fit items in grid spaces, and manage encumbrance.
Hex-Based World Map - Navigate ruins, hills, forests, and plains in a hex-based map. Line-of-sight, elevation, and daylight matters.
Haunting Soundtrack - Music composed by Josh Culler, specifically for NEO Scavenger, plays periodically, lending an atmosphere of loneliness and desperation. (Also accessible as mp3s outside game.)
Creature AI - Wandering creatures go about their own business, hunting, scavenging, and hoarding. Morale affects their choices, and some will gang-up and cause trouble.
Dynamic Weather - Temperature, rainfall, and night/day are based on real-world data for autumn in the area. If you live long enough, you may see snow fall.
Detroit - Take refuge from the wasteland in one of mankind's last bastions of safety. Buy supplies, get medical care, and seek clues in a cyberpunk-styled city.
Trading Cards - Collect NEO Scavenger trading cards, badges, emoticons, and profile backgrounds!
