Outbound PC

Outbound is an adventure game with survival elements, focused on exploration and crafting. It was developed by the independent studio Square Glade Games, which has the game Above Snakes in its portfolio. The creation of this project was made possible partially thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter.

Gameplay

In Outbound we view the action from a first-person perspective (FPP). The game takes us into the near future and allows us to taste the idyllic life on the road. During the journey, our car is our home. We have a choice of different vehicles, including an old camper or an off-roader.

We explore a picturesque, open world, where we can find lush forests, sandy deserts, or even valleys of rushing rivers. We can admire these places at different times of the day and in different weather conditions - from sunny and windy weather to downpours and storms.

An important part of the game is transforming our car into a real mobile base of operations. To achieve this, we need to gather resources, which we use to produce furniture, workstations and tools. Additionally, we use the acquired resources for modular expansion of the car. For example, we can turn its roof into additional living space or even equip it with a terrace.

In addition, the development of technology plays an important role here, as it allows us to power our vehicle with solar, wind or water energy. The game also allows us to cultivate the land, from which edible vegetables and mushrooms grow (we can eat them raw or prepare various meals based on them). It is possible to customize the appearance of the car to our individual preferences thanks to a wide range of paints and decorations.

Game modes

Outbound allows to play alone or in co-op mode over the Internet. Online mode supports up to 4 players.

Graphics

The graphic design of Outbound was made using low poly technique (its elements consist of a small number of polygons).
