The Surprisingly Deep Pixel-Art Stalker Game - Zero Sievert

[@tristandutoit1427]

Hey Drew! Some tips to the game for ya: Aiming with a scope over a hostile target will increase damage and have instant bullet travel time. The Doctor can repair your armour. You can press H in the safezone to teleport to any important characters in the safezone. Lootable spots will disappear like enemies with your fog of war, making identifying looting spots easier instead of mistaking it to be background stuff. Hope this helps! Please post more of Zero Sievert!

[@21joebloe]

The instant bullet travel time only applies to long scopes btw

[@tristandutoit1427]

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

Follow the crows. That's all you got to do for looting.

[@tristandutoit1427]

@@ItIsYouAreNotYour oh yeah do that a lot of the times. the crows tell a big story lol

[@Quadrolithium]

You can also repair your own armor either by looting or crafting your own repair kits.

I love that indie devs like playing with different art styles.

[@Hanging_Brain]

Do you think they like it or it’s just a cheaper/easier medium for a small team to work in.

[@YourBlackLocal]

@@Hanging_Brain Both. They like it but the reality is you’re not making a 3D high quality Stalker game with animations and all.

[@furretthefuzzynoodle3896]

Also people can’t complain that it has bad graphics if it’s a style that is pixelated

[@Sparky-js5xz]

1 name: Project Zomboid It’s an older game with quite the development history but it’s pretty fun. They’re still working on it which is amazing

[@unseenseer]

@@Sparky-js5xz Project Zomboid is a real-time and arguably inferior version of the turn-based Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead

[@philipprudek9537]

this game has a surprisingly steep learning curve for those who haven't played stalker. I for one was delighted to play this game and dumped hours upon hours into it even when it was in open testing. very fun. very in depth.

[@FathersOfDeception]

that's because it's a tarkov inspired game not stalker....

For those who have played Tarkov, no game even comes close when it comes to ‘learning curve’ lol

[@wisewizard9552]

You mean without GSC Game World?

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

@@wisewizard9552 Nope. Roadside Picnic. The novel. It lies at the very root of all of these.

[@Gh3rkinz]

@@JohnPeacekeeper the movie stalker is good as well, although it'll probably appeal more if you like foreign films and art :) definitely not action but a lot of interesting dialogue and ambiance (the movie as well is based on roadside picnic)

[@robforskinstein]

While it’s cool and all, the whole “anomaly” thing just isn’t for me. I like the whole Nuclear hellscape zone, mutants, fighting factions, etc. I just don’t like weird dangerous vortexes scattered around.

[@SeamusCameron]

@@wisewizard9552 - Credit where credit is due, GSC definitely made their world come alive in a fantastic way and exported the Roadside Picnic vibes to a wider audience. Soviet Sci-Fi just had an incredible way of juxtaposing the mundane and the monolithic.

[@THighthorn]

Mister Drewksi, Your ability to do these playthroughs, learning and teaching about games, all while talking about your own experiences and things in life is very enjoying to watch. I'm definitely going to check this game out, please discover more games!

[@JBP.Shr3k]

For those wondering why it's not multiplayer yet (If the devs plan on adding it), is 'cause this game was made in GameMaker. GameMaker, in the game dev industry, isn't really known for it's ability to be as advanced as other engines, such as Unity, Unreal, or even Godot. Within the past year, GameMaker just recently got the ability to implement multiplayer, although as far as I'm aware, it's still rather difficult, and I'm not sure if there's region hosts yet. An example of how much less advanced GameMaker is - You have to program your own physics, your own lighting system, you have to program your own particles, and so on, so props to the dev for being able to make ZERO Sievert in GameMaker.

[@nicktienter4740]

I remember playing this back in November when it came out on steam, because I missed the kickstarter. Hella addicting and fun, would recommend.

[@asidfarwell2375]

Yes, I'm so happy that you're finally playing this game

[@mostafar8514]

*you're

[@joshualinder2812]

So glad you are doing this game and highlighting the little details that make it great. I love that they don't hold your hand too much and let you discover little organic details along the way. If you can complete the train conductor quest, do it, because the new maps unlock new, interesting gameplay that just doesn't occur in Forest. I especially recommend the mall, which is challenging.

[@pupinator98]

[@crimson_nord2028]

Absolutely love Zero: Sievert and it’s devs. This game has been coming along nicely and I can’t wait for more! One thing I wanted to let you know is that your loot multiplier, is a new feature, (looks like it’s set to 2x on your end) spawns two items on top of each other, in a stack. This isn’t a problem for most items but can be detrimental to your weight capacity and shopkeepers. Particularly because of weapons weight and stores prices being doubled. Be sure to split stacks by holding shift and dragging. And you can rotate items with R. There’s a 2 minute mini-tutorial in the settings that really helps early game! Happy hunting!

[@evanvitiello6438]

Been waiting for you to play this! Been hooked on it for a while now. Nice to see a big creator giving it attention. Would love to see you go to other maps, especially mall/interchange

[@LeeMann15]

If a developer see this can you make game like this but Fantasy based same everything but without guns just Fantasy able play as every race Orc,Troll,Ogre,Elf,Dwaft,Gnome,Human,Naga Bunch of classes Make Maps Large but Randomly generate 5Terrians have Allied NPC bandits Goblin camps ect Like the looting is perfect as is but make Rare,Epic,Unique,Legendary,Mythic Items and make Dungeons inside of maps which are generated which can be Rare epic Unique Legendary Mythic or Mythic+ inside Party up with friends or Go to arena and Fight other players with Gear you find and bring back to hideout where all loot from all characters and people you recruited gather.

Games are either competitive multiplayer, or intense co-op like in GTFO, but chill co-op campaigns are so rare. That's what I and I feel a lot of people would also like, this seems to be a nice game to play with friends. But it's SP. I hope they make some co-op version of this.

before i even what you video i just wanted to say i'm so exited to see u play Zero Sievert i've been playing since before it was on steam and i love it its come a loooong way from its early stages but its a great game haha my steam play hours dont really show how much time i've spent rockin though the bush trying not to get gored by a boar or have my gun jam while being attacked by a pack of wolves haha .. this game definitely deserves the spotlight your channel will shine on it.. so before i even watch, 1 your awesome and 2 keep being awesome mate

[@Aozoramurasaki]

you should really talk to people to get quest. also the quest for igor is a quest you do once and it give you a nice surprise if you complete it, you can take as much time as you want to complete it. weapon jam when low on durability, keep them in good condition and they wont jam

Pro tip any new game that you play the first screen you look at is the hot key/key bind in the settings. Fun watching you play this game for the first time.
