Steam
A post-apocalyptic online action game by Vogelsap. The action takes place on Earth in the year 3000 and presents a grim vision of the future in which humanity died out and the planet’s contaminated atmosphere is filled with dense clouds that block the sunlight. One of the last species to live on Earth is the race of misshapen creatures called the Flock. We start out as a representative of the Flock whose task is to find special artifacts.
The Flock is a post-apocalyptic action game, designed exclusively for multiplayer skirmishes; the indie studio of Vogelsap is responsible for developing the production.
The action of the title takes place on Earth in the year 3000; the authors introduce us to a grim vision of our planet’s future, where humanity has been extinct for a long time and the contaminated atmosphere is clouded so densely, that sunlight can no longer reach the surface. As a direct result, the world becomes colder with each passing year; one of the last species, which inhabit this twisted environment, are the hideous creatures known as the Flock; they lead their miserable existence hiding deep underground, where the planet’s core supplies grants them with the smidge of heat they need to survive.
The players begin their adventure as a typical specimen of the Flock. Their main task is to find the Light Artifact, which transforms them into a creature known as the Carrier, a fragile, but also more humanlike being. After a player becomes the Carrier he immediately becomes the target of every representant of the Flock, as everyone covet the Light Artifact for themselves; we win the match if we manage to hold the artifact and withhold the onslaught of the other players for a specific period of time.
The sides of the conflict are asymmetric, which means, that the Flock and the Carries each possess their own, unique abilities; the first faction is both faster and stronger than the latter, which makes hunting much simpler; however, the Carriers make up for their physical weakness with the cleaver usage of the Light Artifact – direct contact with the sunlight it generates is deadly for moving members of the Flock, they can only survive by remaining perfectly still.
