8:16 there is meant to be the sound of a house alarm, but i apparently muted it because im a silly goose so make the best alarm sound aloud when you get to that bit

[@djldot]

I was wondering, but I set it as my mates phone alarm once 😂

[@fluidize8532]

P O T A T O ?

[@DeTnUking]

Good video, one thing to note about the 600 tile Radius alert is that it does make a sound that has a 600 tile radius. However only zombies within 100 tiles of your character are actually able to react and move towards sounds you make/cause. the only thing in the game that can attract zombies from further than 100 tiles are Meta Events.

[@JoshStrifeHayes]

That menu image of cradling the woman, when the lightning flash reveals it's actually a zombie, is such a subtle but effective subversion of expectations.

[@nintendofan707]

I hope you give Project Zomboid a try sometime. ^^

[@danr.1299]

Holy shit the legend himself out in the wild. Hopefully someday you’ll get sucked into zomboid and share the gameplay with us. All the best mate!

[@lemmy103]

Holy shit dev of zomboid here, big fan of your channel! as if you know our game, let alone enough to know about the main screen. Screenshotting this for me colleague who also watches you!

[@maxhanreyt9905]

bro im i big fan pls make vid of this this is cand i mmo

[@JesseAnderson]

This game is really great, but there is such a robust modding space that I actually think it's probably the best zombie game anyone could try

[@dumbwaystokai]

Couldn’t agree more !

[@robertwildschwein7207]

@@dumbwaystokai Then why is this video called "Worst Survival Game Ever?"??? Glad that I checked out the comments first before wasting my time with your AWFUL, FAKE CLICKBAIT video. SHAMELESS BAIT!!!!! 👎👎👎👎👎👎

[@lupinnoney7480]

The two in the main menu actually have names! They're Kate and Baldspot, and they're essentially tutorial NPC's from a VERY early version of the game. There was a small storyline where you get to play as Baldspot taking care of Kate as she broke her leg fleeing from raiders. Nowadays, you can actually go to their house and find them as a little easter egg. :)

[@richardparker3273]

Actually it makes sense that most if not all of the cars you find will be out of gas. After all, pretty much every car that was able to drive away... already did. People made a mad scramble to get outta there, as evidenced by the fewer number of cars and the fact that those remaining have a reason why they're still there.

[@Joebiden69254]

If I was stuck on a island with a pc and could only play one game for the rest of my life it would be project zomboid

[@dumbwaystokai]

Hell yeah!

[@catlovingtrio]

It would be RimWorld for me.

[@mattprice1424]

As long as there is a gas station, generator, and you have read the magazine.

[@wicked_wizard]

I guess you could say, there's a lot of "dumb ways to die". I'm here all day...

[@dumbwaystokai]

This guyyyyyyy

[@The-Ent1ty]

I've died more ways that didn't involve zombies, let alone indirectly

[@1990alone]

Man, I remember when this game was just that tutorial with the guy saving his wife. I replayed this game with a few friends recently and it's come a looooong way.

[@bearnuggs]

i’m really sad i didn’t get to see that

[@1990alone]

@@bearnuggs it's not like you missed out. The entire map was maybe a fifth of the current map's size (probably way less, too). You only had a pistol and a shotgun for guns and maybe a dozen or less melee weapons. Honestly, the only thing I'd say I miss from the earlier builds I played back in like 2014 was the NPCs you'd occasionally find, but they only lasted for a couple of builds IIRC because of how buggy they were. And hey, at least you didn't have to wait almost a decade to play it multiplayer.

[@bearnuggs]

@@1990alone the story about the guy saving his wife was new to me, sounds super cool. i also love watching games grow. i played the talos principle when it was barely a demo and the growth was amazing i am thankful i found pz after multiplayer i do appreciate that very much

[@1990alone]

@@bearnuggs yeah, it was just a tutorial. You actually got a few quests with a tracker. But it was just about 30 min tops, then it became an open world. Actually, the guy with the girl in the main menu screen (the one who's actually a zombie when lightning strikes) are the guy and his wife from the game's first version.

[@jessiehogue.]

There is still an easter egg of it in the game itself even nowadays .You can find the house where that couple was living in Muldraugh, to the North-East of the town. Sometimes, you can even come across their zombified selves and kill them, too. They have a unique item you cannot find anywhere else, a framed picture, if I recall correctly.

[@infractal5033]

Love seeing Twiggy's get defiled again and again until the end where you've made it look really nice.

[@bloodmime]

Happy to have found your channel! Great video :) This game is already one of the best, cant imagine how its idenity will shift down the line with more updates.

[@Orimanus]

I recommend you check out Cataclysm:DDA it is similar to Zomboid but way more in depth at the cost of graphics, being turn-based, and having a steep learning curve. If you can get into it despite all that it is probably the deepest and most varied survival game out there. I also think it would make a good fit for a video with all the weird creatures and misadventures you can get into

[@conzo03]

Amazing video Kai! Very proud of you xox

[@juliancumbia6443]

That video title had me for a minute lol

[@bearnuggs]

i once spawned into a house full of zombies while i was actively getting eaten. i just heard screams as i was loading in. 100/10 highly recommend game and video

[@Telopead]

modded spawn location? Default spawns will always clear all zombie in the tile.

[@bearnuggs]

@@Telopead it wasn’t, but it wasn’t a fresh world spawn, i had just died. actually, if i remember correctly, i respawned in the house i had died in. i vaguely remember my own corpse being there

[@Telopead]

@@bearnuggs that makes sense.

HOLY SHIT youre so underrated man. genuinely one of the best project zomboid overviews ive ever seen, keep it up

[@dumbwaystokai]

thanks so much! really glad you like it

[@whozyourdaddy]

Just broke 1k hours on Zomboid last week. It's a great game in vanilla, but the modders have made it the best game ever.

[@borkuto8794]

Bro I want you to remember my nickname and my words. One day you are going to be one the biggest youtubers that are doing this kind of videos. Great work. Keep it up.

[@dumbwaystokai]

that is so incredibly kind of you to say, thankyou!

[@markrichards7377]

Neat quest - to play every survival game. I can't wait to see future videos.

[@CroatianComplains]

how do you respawn at the end if its permadeath??

[@dumbwaystokai]

You don’t respawn, you create a new character and spawn in the same world

[@kemidoesgaming5106]

Oh, that clickbait. =.= Fair play, Sir.

[@tedk.6420]

I've never noticed the guy in the menu is a zombie! Wow that's crazy.

any pvp server recommendations ?

[@edtazrael]

You realize that you can play in the same world again in singleplayer after your charcter died? You can even find your previous character and the base with all the gear.

[@dumbwaystokai]

Yeahh it’s great, I should have made it clearly it wasn’t just in multiplayer, but one of the many incredible features of the game

[@rotgot23]

i love this game, you did a good job covering it 👍

[@DogtorIzzy]

ZOMBOID LET’S GOOOOOOOO

[@Conzo-id7wu]

In my humble opinion this was the best video to ever be made. Much loved it

[@MildarValsik]

Welcome to the self torturing game of joy. The most fun you will get loosing your self in the sadness of loosing a fictional character. To hear most "gamers" are confident enough to skip most tutorials. This is only of the games that you need it more than you think. Easily teaching gamers they are in fact "not a gamer". With saying "good luck". Well done on the video and hitting on the points people should know without giving away the sick and twisted Developers sneaky way to kill you fast.

[@vegyeti]

GREAT video mate look'n forward to more ... liked👍 and subscribed ✅

[@ryanhuard7301]

If you like this game, you might want to check out cataclysm dark days ahead. It’s a traditional roguelike that was a big inspiration for this game. While talking about traditional survival roguelikes, I recommend you check out unreal world

[@k90v85]

it is a terrible survival game, you die all the time and most people are already dead before it starts!

[@donovan1345]

You can adjust how many zombies are there at the start. You can start on a low pop and if you start in one of the easier cities, you can live longer. Sorry, but this is a game that doesn't hold your hand. It's a great survival game, you may just be bad at surviving.

[@fanowar772]

@@donovan1345nah it’s pretty shit ngl

[@always.7884]

​@@fanowar772 you probly need a game where you can move forward wit W and jump with space and shoot with left click go play some cod or sum ya all bunch of little kids. This game is one of the best survival games ever. Everbody got their own taste, that doesnt mean you need to sht on games with high quality lol you both suck bad at the game thats why probly.

I greatly enjoyed your review of Project Zomboid. So true, it really is a great game that gets better and better as time passes. At first when I saw the title of your episode I was a little bit wtf for a minute lol

lil bro unironically thinks 160 hours played is a lot

Thoes are rookie numbers in tbis ratchet..😅 Started with 4 people.

You know it's about survival and nothing else when you toss golden watches away but collect maggots because they can be used for fishing.

[@CandleInTheEye]

You have some great humour and commentary but videos could be a bit longer, cover "day z" or "the forest" those were some of the first I played pretty janky back then but Shurley patched by now ?

[@gabrielvasile1360]

could you make one about Minecraft next? :D

[@chickenmaster0636]

Fun fact, lorewise i believe louisville becomes infected about a week after the start of the game (6 days to be precise) and while ingame that isnt true, thats due to gameplay limitations

[@dumbwaystokai]

That’s interesting! I always thought Louisville was ground zero

[@oggyswe2]

never heard of bleach before this game. due to english not being my native language and it never been relevant in my life. so i thought oh you quench alot of thirst with this item. and then a few days later i died. it happend enough that i mentioned it to my friends and god did they break down and laughed.

[@dumbwaystokai]

Hahahahahha that’s brilliant

[@yunyasha]

You have to try Ark : survival ascended 😂

[@FrankTrask95]

You should check out, "The Forest" & "Sons of the Forest"

[@UpperAquatics]

Valheim would be worth checking out. Great videos btw!

What IS the worst survival game? Its probably some obscure jank game you download from the xbox store that's worth a dollar or something.
